Edit... This happened during the mid 1800 century???????????????????????? The town was only formed in 1877. In 1885 it population was only at 30. That just means that they became a town in 1877. People were probably living in that area long before that. Formally becoming a town and people living in...

The Legend of the Converse Werewolf (Bexar County, Texas)

I've recently come across The Legend of the Converse Werewolf , from the town of Converse in Texas. Like most American werewolf legends that modern researchers show any interest in, they are trying to re-frame it in terms of a Bigfoot sighting. But, from the description and from the "werewolf&q...

I love the idea of a promotional poster that fans can print off and distribute. But I think it would work just as well in America as elsewhere.

The term "therian" is short for "therianthrope." I first saw it come up around 1993 or 94 on alt.horror.werewolves, while we were still a fledgeling movement trying to find a name for ourselves. (I wasn't the one who came up with the word. Nor did I invent the Internet.) It's en...

When you're watching a werewolf movie, and the special effects just aren't very good, but the story or the characters or something else draws you in anyway, how do you prefer to see the film makers handle this problem?

The Only none hollywood use of silver against a werwolf I have ever encounter was that if you threw a piece of silver over the top of a werewolf it would force it to become human again. In folklore silver relates far more to vampires than to werewolves. I've read in folklore that if you throw a pie...

Or a chubby human would have more muschles 'cause there is something to turn into a muschles. Someone wondered where the werewolves get the extra mass? This is a very good point, fat is meant by nature as an energy reserve. So the transformation could take advantage of this and make a muscular were...

So exaggerated strength has always been part of the werewolf even before it was as we think of it today. It is true that this does appear in a lot of legends. Werewolves looked exactly (or almost exactly) like real wolves but were apt to be larger, faster and stronger (not to mention that consuming...

In folklore the werewolf was the size and shape of a normal wolf but strong enough to single handedly take down a full grown horse. Something one wolf would have a hard time doing.

My question earlier was legitimate, and serious. If someone were to stroke the tail of another werewolf, is that sexual assult (like pinching someone's butt)?

The only effects the moon can have physically on anything on Earth is its gravity and light. Assuming moonlight would be the reason, the 3 day option seems plausable. If it were the gravity, the transformation would happen every other high tide. That would suck. If it were caused by gravity, even i...

A lot of people who like werewolves are furries. I wouldn't be quite so quick to generalize that way. A lot of people I've known who are werewolf fans didn't even know the meaning of "furry" until many years after their werewolf fan interest started, and then failed to become interested i...
