Summers’ compilation serves as a vital resource for understanding the cultural weight of lycanthropy in British history. The text excels in its exhaustive gathering of primary sources, weaving together chronicles and trial records to create a cohesive narrative of fear. While it may lack the fictional thrills of modern horror, its strength lies in its authentic presentation of historical dread. It is best suited for dedicated scholars of gothic tradition and readers interested in the sociological aspects of monster myths rather than those seeking light entertainment.
