Real Werewolf Stories in History: Demons, Shapeshifters, or Dogman?

Since Halloween is right around the corner, it’s a great time to present real stories of werewolves throughout history, such as The Werewolf of Dole, The Wolf of Ansbach, and The Greifswald Werewolves, along with more recent accounts of shapeshifters and Dogman. Are they demons? Are they shapeshifting creatures? What do Native Americans think of them? Why don’t people see them as often as they did in the past? Were people simply more superstitious in the past, or are modern people now afraid to speak out of fear of ridicule?
