Category:From Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve

Ever After High OCs for stories by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve. She was the original author of Beauty and the Beast, though her version has since been displaced by Jeanne-Marie Leprince Le Beaumont's shorter version.

Villeneuve's Beauty and the Beast is very long, and it differs markedly from Beaumont's version. In Villeneuve's version, Beauty is not the merchant's biological daughter but the daughter of a king and a fairy queen, and the Beast is her cousin. Detailed backstories are given for both characters. Andrew Lang included an abridged version of Villeneuve's tale in The Blue Fairy Book.
