Wagner, the Wehr-Wolf
Wagner, the Wehr-Wolf, by the radical journalist and prolific popular novelist George W. M. Reynolds, first appeared as a weekly serial in the 1840s and became one of the best known penny dreadfuls. On a stormy night in the Black Forest in 1516, the aged Fernand Wagner accepts a pact with a mysterious stranger: youth, beauty and wealth in exchange for becoming a werewolf on certain nights. Restored to youth, he travels to Florence, where his fate becomes entangled with the beautiful and enigmatic Nisida, the virtuous Flora Francatelli, and a web of murders, prisons, secret societies and supernatural terrors. Sensational, melodramatic and packed with incident, it is an early classic of werewolf fiction. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
