"L'ensorcelée" by J. Barbey d'Aurevilly is a novel published in 1852.
Set in Normandy after the Chouan uprising, the story centers on a former priest, the abbé de la Croix-Jugan, who fought alongside rebels and survived a disfiguring suicide attempt. Years later, he reappears at vespers, where noblewoman Jeanne Le Hardouey becomes mysteriously "bewitched" by him. The tale unfolds in a dark, supernatural atmosphere, ultimately leading to Jeanne's death under mysterious circumstances that leave haunting questions unanswered.
