Corvetto (fairy tale)

"Corvetto" is an Italian literary fairy tale written by Giambattista Basile in his 1634 work, the "Pentamerone".

[2] Another, literary variant is Madame d'Aulnoy's "La Belle aux cheveux d'or", or "The Story of Pretty Goldilocks".

An ogre lived nearby, with a magnificent horse, and finally the servants said that the king should send Corvetto to steal it.

It shouted to its master, who chased after with wild animals (one of them being a Werewolf), but Corvetto rode it off.

He lured the ogre and his friends into it, stoned them to death, and gave the king the palace.
