The Beast Within: The Hidden History of Werewolves

Описание: The Beast Within: The Hidden History of Werewolves
The werewolf is not just a monster of legend it is the most intimate horror ever created. Unlike vampires or ghosts, the wolf does not stalk us from the outside. It rises from within.
In The Beast Within: The Dark History of Werewolves, we journey from the ancient myths of King Lycaon and the wrath of Zeus to forbidden rituals on Mount Lykaion, from Norse berserkers who wore wolf skins in battle to the terrifying werewolf trials of medieval Europe. This cinematic deep dive explores how the legend of the werewolf evolved and why it has always reflected humanity’s darkest fears.
Across history, the werewolf has symbolized rage, hunger, exile, sin, and the fragile line between civilization and savagery. But what does that say about us? Is the werewolf a supernatural curse… or a mirror?
This video explores:
The Greek myth of Lycaon and divine punishment
Ritual transformation legends and ancient sacrifices
Norse wolf warriors and battle frenzy
Medieval werewolf trials and mass hysteria
The psychological meaning of lycanthropy
