Lion-Faced Man's Father Mauled By A Lion

  • 4 years ago
Legend has it:

Stephen Bibrowski was born 1890 in Poland, with one-inch hair covering his body. His mother blamed the condition on the mauling of his father by a lion, which she witnessed while pregnant with Stephan. She considered Stephan an abomination and gave him up to a German impresario when he was four years old. The impresario gave him his stage name and started exhibiting him around Europe.
