Do You Believe in Werewolf ?

Maybe you've heard about this creatures . Yeah,werewolf is a human with abillity to shapeshift into a wolf when full moon appeared .In addition to the natural characteristics inherent to both wolves and humans, werewolves are often attributed strength and speed far beyond those of wolves or men . Werewolves could be found in Ancient Literature.

Ancient Literature

In Ancient Greek mythology , King of Arcadia named Lycaon who was cursed into a wolf by Zeus because sacrifice his son for sake of ritually , so Lycaon murdered him and ate his flesh . How disgusting ,isn't it ?















In Italy,Roman writers also mentioned lycanthropy . He regarding a tale of a man who was turned into a wolf after tasting the entrails of a human child, but was restored to human form 10 years later . 

 Werewolf Characteristic

Common appeareance you used to see in werewolf movies was right , yes they had curved fingernails , body form like hybrid human-wolf but has no tail , retains human eyes and voice . 




Some sources said ,  one method of identifying a werewolf in its human form was to cut the flesh of the accused, under the pretense that fur would be seen within the wound. A Russian superstition recalls a werewolf can be recognised by bristles under the tongue.

So watch out , you should run for your life when you see this creepy hybrid . Perhaps they look after you for cut flesh and eat it :))))
