About this listen

 Delve into the intriguing world of Werwolves, a captivating collection penned in 1912 by a renowned ghost hunter and occult fantasy author. This fascinating book gathers folktales and traditions from across Europe, journeying from the British Isles to Spain, France, Belgium, Norway, and all the way to Russia. Rich with scientific accounts‚such as the whimsical How to Become a Werewolf‚the narrative is further enhanced by the authors personal encounters with werewolves, ghosts, and vampires. As Chapter 1 reveals, there‚s an age-old belief that the souls of those in cataleptic or epileptic states might temporarily inhabit animals, suggesting that upon death, their spirits might take on permanent animal forms. Join us for an exploration of these eerie tales and the mysteries they hold. (Summary by Beth Thomas)
