Now, I don't know if it's a shift in language over time, but man, they got some flowery text back in the day.

Yeah, they do.

Ultimately, in this context, it is believed that werewolf here is used to describe those who are spiritually corrupt or outlaws.

And so now you can see it taking on a slightly different meaning, though inspired by the stories of old.

However, this philosophy would carry into werewolf folklore as we kind of know it, as the middle ages kind of wears on.

In early modern Europe, the time period immediately following the middle ages, werewolf folklore was on the rise.

Much like now we see aliens on the rise.

If you really zoom out, like hundreds of years from now, there might be the next big, big thing.

Now, some sources theorize that this was due to a rising fear of wolves and a general fear of the wild itself.

This is something that we already kind of got to organically, but for example, very specifically in Germany, this fear was frequently coupled with actual wolf attacks that would plague rural towns.

I also read about in France, there was an article that was like, was this town plagued by a werewolf or was it something more like this where a maybe pack of wolves just happened to be hunting in the area and out of desperation turned to otherwise helpless individuals who themselves might be

either afraid, not well armed or just in the woods.

You know, at the end of the day, humans are just animals.

We think of ourselves, we got cell phones, cars and flying things.

But at the end of the day, when you're caught with your trousers down in the woods, you're food.

Yeah.

You know?

was it that liam neeson movie oh the gray yeah uh dude wolves man they're vicious they they they're they're they hunt the pack and they're not afraid to see you as food i mean how do you have bulls you have coyotes that like jump into residential areas and like oh yeah fences and i've seen very brutal things over like security cameras where they like go up to a dog a friend a dog and then

dude yeah they lure them out they are wild vicious creatures man they're not going to be afraid yeah i don't know if it's more media and movies and stuff but wouldn't surprise me if they were trying to you know go after something bigger like a bear or whatnot if they're truly hungry and starving and you see the that you know that lip go up those teeth show

That transformation is probably one of the most terrifying natural things I've ever seen.
