A disturbing detail about Disney's Beauty and the Beast has been pointed out by fans, turning the classic film into a horror movie. The observation suggests that many of the enchanted objects in the castle, such as plates and spoons, do not have faces, limbs, or the ability to express themselves. This raises questions about their existence and the torture they endure. Additionally, another theory suggests that the nonhuman/animal staff in the castle gained sentience when cursed, implying that they would essentially be killed upon breaking the curse. These revelations add a dark and chilling aspect to the beloved Disney movie.
