Watched "Plumed Serpent" from _Grimm_. A modern take on the knight-saves-damsel-in-distress-from-dragon story. Loved that fire dancer's copper house.

The image superimposed briefly on the title card is not a Death's head after all but the head of a hexenbiest.

There are two other ways of perceiving each episode in this series:

--That each episode is about the Confrontation of the Shadow, i.e. the beast in every man and in every woman, or

--That each episode is about men and women who were unable to confront their Shadows and thus became monsters.
