“Howling at the Moon”: A History of Werewolves - A Webinar with Craig Thomson MA, BA

While scary stories and mythologies are filled with mentions of werewolves, what do we really know about them? What are the truths behind werewolves and their origins? And do they have anything to do with real wolves?

On October 19, 2022 , the Wolf Conversation Center hosted Craig Thomson Ph.D. who answered some of these questions as he took us on a deep dive through the history, legends, and traditions associated with the werewolf!
