Literature. Part sixty eight.

                                                                "Bluebeard" by Charles Perrault.

Bluebeard was a wealthy man. He was married several times. But all his wives disappeared somewhere.

Women were afraid of him. They didn't want to marry him.

One neighboring girl decided to marry Bluebeard.

He had many different rooms in his house.

After wedding Bluebeard left to another place.

He gave his wife the keys to all the rooms. There was a room in the house that she couldn't enter.

The young woman was very curios. She opened that room, too. She saw bodies of his previous wives. The key was magical and stained with blood.

Bluebeard knew about all. He became angry and wanted to kill his wife. But relatives saved the young woman.

This fairy tale was translated to many languages. There are different performances about this story.
