good job Buck.
I read your hints and was thinking about the 30 years war. much of it was fought in or near mittel Europe; abandoned or decaying castles, weary peasants, death, disease, rumors, general misery.
Hammer Studios did very well portraying that gothic era.
I think Native Americans had werewolf-like legends (skinwalkers?) but I doubt that influenced the Euro wolfman.
there was a legacy of 'wild men' living on the edge of society (Wodewose). maybe hairy old hermits helped inspire the wolf man.
