The Secret Pastimes of Victorian Society | Boring History For Sleep

Tonight’s story will ease you into sleep as we wander through the hidden pastimes and secret indulgences of Victorian society. The calm rhythm of these tales will quiet your mind and help you drift into rest. Along the way, you’ll discover how Victorians lived double lives—maintaining rigid decorum by day, while embracing hidden games, forbidden rooms, and coded gestures by night. And perhaps, you’ll take comfort in knowing that beneath all the corsets and manners, they were not so different from us: curious, daring, and longing to be free. #boringhistoryforsleep #history #sleep #storiesforsleep #sleepandhistory ________________________________________ Timestamps 00:00 - Behind the Curtains and Parlour Games 16:13 - Tea, Gardens, and Hidden Codes 40:32 - Clubs, Dens, and Forbidden Rituals 1:43:05 - Exhibitions, Secrets, and Final Revelations ________________________________________ Sources 1.
