This dusty Urban Legend I have used in various designs and in my current line is now featured on a unique rugby patch stitched upon the Werewolf Priests Tie. Hope you dig the story it's classic Good vs Evil.
The legend is based on a faded priest broken by personal loss. Residing in a small-impoverished village whose faith has long slipped away he is required to travel to service all his parishioners. Forced to camp out on one particular night he is attacked and bitten by a wolf. The priest fights off the wolf and returns to the village to heal. Now at his point the anticipation is a steady consumption of great evil in his werewolf form at night. However the unlikely occurs. His walking life becomes relentlessly fueled by a “RENEWED VIGOUR” in his preaching duties causing a rebirth of faith into the population.
The priest later has a dream of killing a prominent local citizen and when the crime is replicated in real life, the Priest realizes he is cursed. At the same time the newly inspired village embark on a crusade to hunt down the evil that has killed one of their own.
Now it gets cool. Some say the townspeople killed the wolf and watched with surprise and great sorrow as it transformed into their beloved Priest. Others say the Priest committed suicide. A select few say the townspeople realized the truth and left him unaware and alive for his religious strength knowing a few sacrificial deaths would inevitably occur. It's up to you to decide.
TRUTH: Dr. Lee Illis of Guy's Hospital in London wrote the Aetiology of Werewolves, in which he argues that historical accounts could have been referring to victims of congenital porphyria, stating how the symptoms of photosensitivity, reddish teeth and psychosis could have been grounds for accusing a sufferer of being a werewolf.
The priest suffered great personal loss and was plagued by this deathly illness and that kind of dark situation can provoke extreme faith. This story could have been true.
