Cinderella - Dark Original Version by Brothers Grimm 1812
Ойын-сауық
This video unveils the dark and enchanting world of “Cinderella,” a story with ancient roots that stretch back to the era of oral fairytales, whispered through the ages. Originating from the heart of Germany, this narrative was meticulously recorded by the legendary Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm in the year 1812, offering a glimpse into a version far more shadowy and sinister than the Disney version we all grew up with. From mystical golden slippers to the echo of midnight chimes, this video promises to immerse you in the eerie charm of a story that has haunted and enchanted through the ages. This rendition is brought to life through cutting-edge AI animation, blending the ancient with the futuristic to cast a spellbinding experience.
Drawing from the profound insights of Marie-Louise von Franz, remember that all fairytales act as a mirror to the collective unconscious, unveiling universal themes and archetypal characters that resonate deeply with the human psyche. This story transcends its narrative to become a guide of symbols for the process of female individuation, reflecting a feminine journey towards psychological integration and self-discovery. Through symbolic language akin to the dreamscape, “Cinderella” presents not just a tale of trials and triumphs, but a pathway to understanding the deeper layers of personal growth and the archetypal journey ingrained in our collective heritage.

P.S.S (There are many variations to this fairytale, they are all slightly different and all of them are valuable)
P.S.S.S I’m sorry I mispronounced the word “hearth” 😆🫣

The Brothers Grimm were my ancestral uncles from Kassel Germany..they travelled all over the regions to collect their stories from Old people and Story Tellers . My mother had a First Edition signed of Grimms Fairy Tales

It's wonderful to know that someone has an actual connection to them in the present. I have always thought of them as long ago and as far away as their stories, all of which I read again and again when I was a child. Thank you for posting. I know there is a movie about them, but I've never seen it. I'll look for it and hope it will be factual as well as entertaining.

In the Grimm’s earliest publications the stepmothers were originally the heroine’s *real* mother. They changed it soon after as they viewed motherhood as sacred, partly due to how much their own relationship with their own mother. Plus there’s a golden unspoken rule in fairytales that it’s ok to kill your stepmother but not your real one.

Cinderella was always my favorite fairytale.
There is a saying in Denmark : chop a heal, clip a toe, which is a direct thread back to this story. It refers to tying yourself in knots to get what you want. I was told this original version as a child, as well as other Grimm "fairy tales". And they work so much better.

This story was pretty sloppily constructed. It failed to mention the fact that Cinderella's father had died. The step-mother pretty much disappeared until the end, with the eldest daughter taking most of her role. Finally, it left out the part where the birds pecked out the eyes of the step-family.

This is for all the people with the pronunciation problem with the word hearth. It is one of the words that depends on your place of origin. Both "harth" and "herth" are correct. Same that herb is correct as "erb" and "herb."

This an AI reading, not actual person. And no, there is no other way to pronounce hearth- and it is not like "erb" "herb", because one starts with "h" and other doesn't. The word is 'borrowed' from the French, who employ the silent H. It evolved into Herb in the mouths of the English. Adaptations across borders occurs with thousands of words. Technically speaking, "erb" is the historically correct pronunciation, but this does not apply to hearth in any way, since there h is not silent.

Not to mention that European version sounds a lot like the Chinese one which is one of the oldest versions after the Egyptian one. by Grimms, Charles Perrault, the 500 folktales found a few years ago. Top that off with even Grimms tales May have been from other countries as they got the tales from wealthy friends who had governesses from other nations.
This version that you're telling is a very different version than the original and yet it's nice that you put pictures and are telling a story that I'm sure a lot of people have heard in various forms.

My mom had a really old leather bound Brothers Grimm tome and in it the sisters and their mother were made to dance in red hot iron shoes until dead. The olde, olde versions were dark indeed. Ariel won nothing and ended up sea foam, sleeping beauty was kissed while she slept but woke up birthing twins? Are we sure it was just a kiss and did he get consent? Hansel noted the witch could not see and when she asked for their finger through the bars of the cage to pinch she was gauging their weight, when Gretel gets eaten after she finds her finger "plump" he starts giving her a chicken bone to feel, he ends up shoving her head first into the oven. The tales were from a time that children had to be left to their own devices out of necessity and needed a healthy fear of the forest and strangers and disobedience to keep them in line and safe. Shame that book got destroyed from water damage that caused a ceiling collapse, would be worth something now.

Cutting off a heel or some toes to get a fella is fairly gruesome. I suppose the prince wasn't such a rich idiot that the jeweled princess was all he was after. First appearances could certainly be considered to be a big part of it all --- or he was just really into tiny feet, after all.

At least the slippers aren't made of glass because who could walk, much less dance, wearing slippers made of glass! It would have to be very thick glass too, to support the weight. They would be extremely uncomfortable. Pure gold slippers would be uncomfortable too. Maybe magic also made the shoes comfy. Apparently the stepsisters were impervious to pain since they cut off part of their foot and then shoved their bleeding foot into the hard shoe and were able to walk. Ouch! 😮

So, the Prince didnt know the face of the woman he was dancing with???;
I really don’t understand how people get so many different versions . I read up on the Brothers Grimm and their stories were definitely not the Disney version. They were all very grim and deadly. In all of of them the stepmother all are killed off by the heroes. The Brothers Grimm got their stories from interviews of the mothers in the local villages. The shoes from Disney were crystal but the ones from this story did not fit anyone. As the story progresses it says that both of the sisters cut off her toes. The stepmother and the stepdaughters underwent significant punishments until they were finally killed. So of course you know the rest of the story, OR DO YOU. I will leave the rest of the story up to you but find the original versions on the internet or at your local library.
Great job, can't wait to see more!
my everlasting question... how come the one slipper never disappears in all the versions...?
