The King of the Snakes is a Chinese folktale published by John Macgowan in 1910. It tells the story of a woman who marries a snake spirit, but her sister conspires to take her place and kills her. The woman goes through a cycle of transformations, regains human form and takes revenge on her sister. Scholars relate the tale and variants to the cycle of the animal bridegroom, but consider it a tale type that developed in East Asia, particularly China.
