Do werewolves change only full moon?
Werewolves are not necessarily transformed during the cycle of the full moon, some may have to stay wolves for a cycle of years while many have the ability to change whenever they wish. The moon bit being linked to a curse and involuntary transformation is very much linked to the 1930’s Hollywood movie The Wolfman.
At what time do werewolves transform?
The transformation usually occurred during the winter solstice, Easter and a full moon. Later in the 17th and 18th century, the trials in Hungary not only were conducted against witches, but against werewolves too, and many records exist creating connections between both kinds.
What causes a werewolf to transform?
Most werewolves have a trigger that makes them transform. For example, if a werewolf is in human form and it gets too hyper, it will transform. Other triggers are: getting too angry, getting hurt, getting too much adrenaline, or to protect something or someone, and even fire.
What happens to werewolves on full moon?
They look like regular people during the day. But when the moon is full, they turn into a hairy — and scary — monster! And when the full moon disappears they turn back into a person.
Can a werewolf turn back into human?
Sometimes, if a werewolf dies in wolf form, he remains a wolf forever. But in other depictions, he immediately reverts to his human form. In these films, if you cut off a werewolf’s paw, it can become a human hand before your eyes.
How does the moon affect the transformation of a werewolf?
It was largely viewed in the 17th and 18th centuries that a werewolf’s transformation was supernaturally influenced by the waxing and waning of the moon. In the 19th and 20th centuries this idea went even further, and the theme of man turning into wolf become solely dependent on the full moon.
Could there be werewolves in outer space?
From a viewpoint in outer space, the full moon wouldn’t really be present in the same way, so perhaps potential werewolves in space would never be affected.
How would you describe a werewolf?
First off, in case you for some reason have no idea what a werewolf is supposed to be, it is a somewhat cursed (occasionally infected) human that, upon being hit by the light of the full moon, becomes extremely hairy and quite a bit more bitey.
Why can’t we see the full moon on Earth?
A key problem here is that the full moon is only something that exists on Earth; it’s a perspective thing, based on the position of the Sun, Moon and Earth, and the angle and reach of sunlight across the tripartite system.
