* Subverted in an Arab folktale. A daughter of a ''ghoul'' (human-eating monster) winds up with some of its magical powers. She nearly gets married to a prince except for the presence of another girl. She throws herself into an oven and reforms, leaving fresh bread ready in the oven to start a welcoming feast for the prince. The other girl claims similar abilities, throws herself into the oven, and burns to death.
* In Myth/GreekMythology there were a few examples of this type. For instance, male gods would occasionally reveal who they were on taking leave from the woman they had just impregnated. In a more spectacular example, Hera posed as an old woman to trick Semele, one of her husband Zeus' lovers, into getting him to promise to do her a favour and then make that favour to show himself to her in his true form. She did not survive the experience.
* The Huldra women of Norwegian folklore become mortal and gain souls when they are married to a man. However, they still keep their magic and freakish strength, much to the peril of unfaithful husbands.
* OlderThanPrint: [[AsianFoxSpirit Kitsune]] are subject to this trope. ''Kitsune''-wives usually left when their true nature was exposed, but in at least one tale, the husband called after her, reassuring her of welcome, so she returned, but only at night.
* The medieval story of ''Melusine'', which dates back at least to the 12th century, tells of a knight marrying a woman called Melusine:
** One version is she marries him on condition that he never look at her naked. One day his curiosity got the better of him and he peeked while she was taking a bath. To his horror he saw that she had a snake-like tail, showing she was a water-sprite or mermaid. When she realized that her secret was out, she left through the window, never to be seen again. In the most common version of the story, this Melusine is the supposed ancestress of the French Lusignan family. How this could be the case when her husband couldn't see her naked is probably best ignored.
** Another version had the condition that she be allowed to be alone, locking herself in her room, every Saturday or Sunday till noon, and the knight would never try to look at or visit her then. This was because she was cursed -by her mother!- to turn into a serpent from the waist down during that time, and did not wish him to know. All of her children were born with some slight deformity, but were otherwise brave, good, and fortunate. But the whispers that the children were deformed because they were not his became too much for the knight, and he spied on her. When she found out, she left him, never to be seen again.
