Wolf-Leader

Wolf-Leader

by Alexandre Dumas

In Alexandre Dumas's chilling tale, 'Wolf-Leader,' a shoemaker named Thibault, driven to despair by injustice, makes a pact with the Devil, disguised as a wolf. Thibault gains the power to command a pack of demonic wolves, but his newfound abilities come at a terrible cost. The story explores the themes of revenge, temptation, and the dark consequences of trading one's soul for power. Set in the atmospheric French countryside, 'Wolf-Leader' weaves a haunting narrative of supernatural horror and moral struggle.
