* This is a crucial part of the English folktale, ''Mr Fox''. Lady Mary, Mr Fox's intended bride, is suspicious of him and follows him home to see his castle for herself - and gets more than she bargains for when she finds the literal skeletons in his cupboards. A ballad version by the folk group ''Mr Fox'' has the girl bring home evidence of her encounter with Fox's latest conquest and confront him with it:
{{quote|
And with a blow both sharp and sweet
The hand was severed from the wrist
And dropped down at my feet
...
Foxy turned his back on me
He turned as if to leave
But I took him by the arm and plucked
The hand from out my sleeve }}
