Similar stories include the 16th century Taiwanese story called "Grand Aunt Tigress"
Red Riding Hood also bears similarities with the story "The Wolf and the kids" which originates from the 1st century and was told throughout Europe and the Middle East.
There is also the Italian tale "La Finta Nonna" meaning the false grandmother, this story features an Ogress instead of a wolf!
A poem written in Belgium in the 11th century tells the tale of a girl in a red baptism tunic who is eaten whole by a wolf.

There are numerous versions of the story and it continues to be rewritten and retold to this day!
