Georgia Werewolves On My Mind

Much has been made of what folks confidently boast is the State of Georgia's "only" werewolf for which there is anything like a trail of evidence. The pathetic creature of 19th century Talbot County, Georgia perhaps was only a deranged young woman with obvious Lycan predilections. Who am I to say? I wasn't there.

However, the story Linda Godfrey relates in her book, "Hunting The American Werewolf: Beast Men in Wisconsin and Beyond" is, I must confess, the most disturbing and the most terrifying to come out of my State ever. I know that sounds like hyperbole but I can still count the number of goosebumps Chapter 11 produced upon my Southern skin when I first read it. Linda relates she received a phone call from a resident of my State who was of Native American ancestry. He was somewhat bewildered by his experience and wanted someone he could trust in order to tell of his encounter.
