The figure in the trees. The howl carried across the moors. They all started here. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e When it first appeared in 1865, Sabine Baring-Gould's \u003ci\u003eThe Book of Were-Wolves\u003c\/i\u003e was the first serious study of a superstition as old as Arcadia and as vast as human fear itself. Moving through folklore, confession, and what would one day be called true crime, Baring-Gould traces stories of wolves in league with the devil, of men drifting into the shapes of bears, serpents, and hyenas, and of a boundary between human and beast so thin it dissolves in the moonlight. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e For generations, this strange volume has imprinted itself on the minds of horror writers, its rare editions passed quietly from hand to hand. Now, with a new introduction by Stephen Graham Jones, Baring-Gould's dark and curious classic steps once more into the light--summoning ancient lore with it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sabine Baring-Gould\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e S\u0026amp;s\/Saga Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.90h x 5.20w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781668233146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2026 pg. 65\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStephen Graham Jones is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eThe Only Good Indians\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMy Heart Is a Chainsaw\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eI Was a Teenage Slasher\u003c\/i\u003e.
