Werewolf History Project- Early Film
a bit of a jump to part 3!
Curiously, werewolf mythos does not have a consistent history of “rules” and origins like the similar figure of the vampire does. Most of what constitutes modern understanding of werewolf stories comes quite recently through early film in the 1920’s through the 40’s. Of course the most notable is Universal Pictures The Wolf Man (1941), which brought many werewolf attributes into popular knowledge. However, an earlier film, Werewolf of London (1935) was the origin of lycanthropy being transferred through biting!
