“… Werewolf Stories is the latest compilation of stories and research by intrepid researcher Nick Redfern, along with research contributed by the late Brad Steiger. The accounts and anecdotes assembled for this book are entertaining, intriguing, and downright terrifying. This is another excellent offering from the prolific Redfern.” —Los Angeles Book Review “… the stories in Werewolf Stories read like stories instead of encyclopedia articles, which makes much of it good fun to read for spooky-tale aficionados, whether you're the kind who believes such things could be true or the kind who lives with your paws on planet Earth.” —Psychobabble “… a thought-provoking book on the werewolf mythology. … The knowledge that pours out from Nick Redfern and the late Brad Steiger on werewolves is mind staggering. If you want to go beyond Hollywood's version of werewolves, I would highly suggest that you pick up this masterpiece book and get an in depth look at these monsters!” —Unexplained-Mysteries.com “… book takes readers on a journey that spans centuries. … learn about real people who claimed to be werewolves and folks who could manifest otherworldly beasts. Learn about werewolf hunters, werewolf experts, and different kinds of canine-like beasties. And then keep going and find out why you probably shouldn’t go into the woods alone in the dark. Duh, like you need to be told. …” —Keizertimes “The 1930s brought us Lon Chaney Jr. as the classic Wolf Man. Decades later, Rick Baker’s far more advanced special effects gave us An American Werewolf in London. And our Hollywood werewolves have only gotten more sophisticated and terrifying. But centuries earlier, there was Gilles Garnier, who in 1572 was accused of being a real-life werewolf. With real horror. And real victims. … As Werewolf Stories recounts, “Garnier … ‘being in the form of a wolf,’ seized a ten-year-old girl in a vineyard and ‘there he slew her with both hands, seemingly paws, and with his teeth carried some of her flesh home to his wife.’” This is just one of many lycanthropic tales spanning the course of humanity presented in Werewolf Stories. Others include exorcisms that freed the possessed from evil werewolf spirits, serial killers who believed they were werewolves and modeled their crimes on them, the Ouija Wolf Girl who was cursed by a spirit, and even werecats. … The collection was culled from Redfern’s research and from the prolific cryptozoology files of Steiger, who passed away in 2018 at the age of 82. …” —Weird Historian
