The Little Girl Escapes

One French folklore version from 1870 known as "The Grandmother" is very different. Although the bzou (or werewolf) kills the Grandmother, the little girl is too clever for him. The bzou tries to keep the little girl close by tying a string to her and letting her go outside. As soon as she can she unties herself, escapes the bzou and returns safely back home.
