The Origin of the Werewolf Superstition
The belief that a human being is capable of assuming an animal’s form, most frequently that of a wolf, is an almost worldwide superstition.

So the werewolf was a man in wolf’s form or wolf’s dress, seen mostly at night, and believed generally to be harmful to man.
