They sold "Sleeping Beauty" as an innocent tale... its true story hides a tale of horror. The story written by the Italian Giambattista Basile wasn’t exactly made for children as it has a horrifying outcome that few know about. Talia is the real name of the princess who, after falling into a deep sleep, is used by a man for impure acts. When she wakes up from the curse, she realizes that she has had two children by a stranger... and that her nightmare isn’t yet over. | Rosa
