In a recent report from Brazil a woman claims to have been attacked by a 'werewolf' which scratched her arms and face. This is one of a number of such reports in recent years involving 'werewolf'-like creatures in the region.
[Translated] According to the victim’s account, the creature looked like a big dog. Police is looking for a suspect that may have used a costume to attack the girl.

In a recent report from Brazil a woman claims to have been attacked by a 'werewolf' which scratched her arms and face. That is not much of an attack.

Costume? Seriously? Who would attack someone with a costume and I would think someone with minimal intelligence could tell if it is a costume. It isn't like the attacker would spend like 1000$ on a realistic werewolf costume for the sole reason of attacking people. If its really a werewolf I hope them cops have some silver bullets handy. Good point, it would be kinda obvious because there's a good chance that a costume shop in the area would come forward and say something, unless some crazy person got one online. That is not much of an attack. That's also a good point, it sounds like it was a ... [More]

I find it ridiculous how something which may resemble a wolf combined with a person is automatically labeled a 'werewolf'. I'm sure there are other possibilities of animals that could resemble the appearance which those do: Hairy Big Stands on two legs Has claws Especially in the night. As much as I'd like to believe that it might have been an actual werewolf, it's highly unlikely.

werewolfs could possibly exist but not in the way most ppl imagine them i dont think ppl could turn into a hairy creature like what ppl see on tv but there could transformanist (and yes it is a real word its a person who thinks or can turn into a animal or something else) with amazing ability that some ppl can not explain yet imagine if a secret like that got out they would be chased around or maybe even killed because we dont understand them yet its human nature to destory things we dont understand

As much as I'd like to believe that it might have been an actual werewolf, it's highly unlikely. Well what else are we supposed to label creatures that look half man and half wolf? Werewolf just means "manwolf" so yes anybody that is a person physically combined with a wolf is entitled to the label werewolf. How... [More]

This is obviously not real as if there was a werewolf why did it stop attacking her i mean i read alot about werewolves and they all say that the werewolf is consumed by need for blood so it would nnot have stoped with just a few scratches
