The werewolf is, in the Romanian mitology, an extraordinary being, a demon who swallows the Sun and the Moon, thus causing eclipses. Multiple representations of this creature, such as regular animals (wolves and dogs) or even fantastic beings (dragons) have led to a mistery concerning the demon's appearance. The werewolf is the embodiment of evil, which disturbs the order of the world, and any deviation from a community can lead to one becoming a werewolf. So, werewolves, like ghouls, can appear from different sources: unnamed children, malformed children, kin-slayers, even an action that is contrary to a tradition can create a werewolf. A man will become a werewolf during an eclipse and most of the time, it's his soul that will ascend to the sky and devour the Sun and the Moon. If the bond between the soul and the body is broken during this transformation, the soul is lost forever. |
