I found something that sounded pretty awesome:
Lokis (1869) - set in Lithuania, it is the
horror story of a man who, it would seem, is half bear and half man.
Hurr durr, half bear! There's no way this couldn't be awesome!
Oh, wait. Wrong! Because it was written by
Prosper "Let's kill whores for being whores! And not-whores for dramatical effect! Let's just kill all women hurr hurr hurr!" Merimee, so:
The plot revolves around a young man who is suspected to be half-human half-bear, since he was born after his mother was mauled (and, as believed by peasants, raped) by a bear. The title is a misspelling of Lithuanian lokys for "
bear". As such, the plot may be classified into a
werewolf theme. Through the novel, the protagonist, Michel/Lokis, manifests signs of animal-like behavior until he finally kills his bride by a bite to her throat and runs away into the forest on his wedding night. Some critics consider the tale to be an inversion of the
Beauty and the Beast story, whereby the Beauty transfroms a man into a Beast, rather than vice versa.
Yeah, she totally made him do it, guise D:
