F. Ossendowski's account of the Black Monk of Sakhalin, in Man and Mystery in Asia, qualifies.

The Barrow Troll by David Drake.

H. H. Ewers' The Sorcerer's Apprentice qualifies.

The unavoidable fate in Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species has been described as nightmarish. It is in my to-be-read pile. I have read Darwin's very interesting The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals.
