An electrostatic acoustic wave generating device and an electrostatic speaker making entries of dust, water, moisture, etc. into the device and the speaker, allowing reduction in power. A plate-like fixed electrode has a through hole penetrating the thickness of the fixed electrode. A vibrating body and a vibrating electrode each having a plate-like shape are arranged closer to one surface and closer to the other surface of the fixed electrode respectively, and are movable in the respective thickness directions thereof. A connection member connects the vibrating body and the vibrating electrode to each other through the through hole of the fixed electrode to cause the vibrating body and the vibrating electrode to move toward the same direction. Voice signal input is capable of applying a voltage to the fixed electrode, the vibrating body, and the vibrating electrode to move the vibrating body between the fixed electrode and the vibrating body.
