"Bulemanns Haus" by Theodor Storm is a literary fairy tale written in 1864. After years overseas, the hard-hearted Herr Bulemann returns to his father's house, bringing only two large cats. He has supposedly sold his family to slave traders. When creditors seek their pawned goods that he illegally sold, Bulemann grows increasingly misanthropic and isolated. His cold rejection of his half-sister's desperate plea for help leads to tragedy—and a terrifying curse that transforms his feline companions into something sinister.
