REAL WOLFMEN
True Encounters in modern America
linDa s. goDFreY
What’s hiding in the woods? Here is the
defi nitive account of today’s nationwide
sightings of upright, canine creatures—
which resemble traditional werewolves—
and a thorough exploration of
the nature and possible origins
of the mysterious beast.
“She has the ability to send chills up and down your
spine.” —Brad Steiger, author of Real Ghosts,
Restless Spirits, and Haunted Places
“If you thought the likes of The Wolfman, The Twilight
Saga: Eclipse, and Underworld had no basis in fact, it’s
time to think again!” —Nick Redfern, author of
There’s Something in the Woods
the United States has been invaded—if many dozens of
eyewitnesses are to be believed—by upright, canine
creatures that look like traditional werewolves and act
as if they own our woods, fi elds, and highways. Sightings from
coast-to-coast dating back to the 1930s compel us to ask exactly
what these beasts are, and what they want.
Researcher, author, and newspaper reporter Linda S. Godfrey
has been tracking the manwolf since the early 1990s. In
Real Wolfmen she presents the only large-scale cataloguing and
investigation of reports of modern sightings of anomalous, upright
canids. Godfrey explores the most compelling cases from
the modern history of such sightings, along with the latest
reports, and undertakes a thorough exploration of the nature
and possible origins of the creature.
lINDa s. GoDfrey
is America’s foremost authority on
modern-day werewolves. She is
the author of over a dozen books
on werewolves, hauntings, and the
paranormal, including the popular
Weird Michigan. Godfrey has appeared
on many national TV shows such as
The History Channel’s Monster Quest,
Inside Edition, and Sean Hannity, and has
been a guest on radio shows such as Coast to Coast AM, as well as
on Wisconsin and Michigan Public Radio.
