SOURCE: "British Werewolves" (1911) by Elliott O'Donnell

DESCRIPTION: "It was a nude grey, thing, not unlike a man in body, but with a wolf's head.  As it sprang forward, its light eyes ablaze with ferocity, she instinctively felt in her pocket, whipped out a pocket flash-light, and pressed the button.  The effect was magical; the creature shrank back, and putting two paw-like hands in front of its face to protect its eyes, faded into nothingness." 

PLOT: This article actually contains several episodes: the first about a woman who sees a wolf-like ghost on a train station platform, a wolf ghost that appears while daddy is making an appearance as Santa Claus, and a werewolf face that appears at a kitchen window.

WEREWOLF FACTS: O'Donnell suggests that any werewolves that would appear in England (since there are no wolves left) are ghosts of men who were once werewolves in ancient times.

INTERESTING FACTS: This piece was highly influential on later writers. Much of The Door of the Unreal by Gerald Biss is based on O'Donnell's theories.
