Werewolf

Today, we’re going to talk about a shape-shifter whose widespread legend has captivated minds for centuries, the werewolf. It’s a story we all know well: an unlucky someone is bitten or cursed and becomes a slave to the lunar cycle. Every full moon, he transforms into a wolf and roams the night, hunting. Try as he might to avoid the inevitable transformation— perhaps by hiding from the moon’s bright glow, maybe locking himself away in an isolated place— there is only one true escape, a silver bullet to the heart. Our story today is an adaptation of Eugene Field’s short story, “The Werewolf.” This episode was researched and written by Lindsey Morse. Niall Cooper assists with writing and editing, and was also our guest storyteller for this episode. Our theme music was composed by Graeme Ronald.
