iNicoler I think the "cases" you're thinking about are hypertrichosis, not lycantropy. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertrichosis]Wikipedia[/url] Hypertrichosis describes hair growth on the body in an amount considered abnormal; extensive cases of hypertrichosis have informally been called werewolf syndrome. There are two distinct types of hypertrichosis: generalized hypertrichosis, which occurs over the entire body, and localized hypertrichosis, which is restricted to a certain area. Hypertrichosis is either congenital (present at birth) or acquired later in life. The excess growth of hair occurs in areas of the skin with the exception of androgen-dependent hair of the pubic area, face, and axillary regions.
Nope. The hair growth I am talking about happens instantly when the other 'changes' happen, not at birth or a certain point in their life. Like the psychological effects take over and they actually exhibit symptoms of the condition.
iNicoler Also; scientists generally know more than the "average human" because of all the research they have to do. Doesn't mean they're necessarily smarter, but if lycanthropy did exist, I think it'd have been at least discovered by now.
The thing I am talking about was a scientific study/documentary. There were psychologists and scientists on the show. Though I do agree that if there were 'werewolves' running around in the wild I am sure they would have been discovered by now or at least have 'sighting' of them.

My post was aimed at the OP xD
Anyways, I must have skipped over your post because I was sort of sleepily scrolling through to the "reply" button. Sorry sweatdrop But that's very interesting. I've never heard of that, mostly because the only shows I watch on the History channel are shows about Monarchies, and the Discovery network kinds freaks me out (especially the health channel). I'll definitely have to try to catch that and read up on it. It must be rare though. Do they know what caused those "transformations?"
