  • Frederick Marryat - The Werewolf

    Frederick Marryat - The Werewolf
    2026/03/05
    "The Werewolf," a short story extracted from Frederick Marryat's novel The Phantom Ship (1839) . Reprinted many times since, often under alternative title of "The White Wolf of the Hartz Mountains," the tale chronicles the misfortunes of Krantz, A Hungarian nobleman's steward, who flees from Transylvania with his three children after murdering his unfaithful wife and lover.

    Captain Frederick Marryat was a Royal Navy officer and novelist. He is noted today as an early pioneer of nautical fiction, particularly for his semi-autobiographical novel Mr Midshipman Easy (1836). He is remembered also for his children's novel The Children of the New Forest (1847).
