werewolves dont exist. vampires dont exist.
love stories involving the 2 dont exist.
too many twilight fans.

hmmm... how do you know?
why do i not feel content to accept that you are the absolute in knowledge on this subject.

absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

and fyi..there are depictions of fanged humanoids in religions and folklore of just about every country on the planet. india, china, japan, columbia (st augustin statues), peru, mexico (masks wiht fangs), thailand (fanged demons), bali/indonesia, europe (vampires naturally), etc.
no smoke without a fire, i say...

also many cultures also have legends of shapeshifting gods/demons that turn from human to animal form - which resembles the werewolf legend. For example: greek gods - zeus etc always taking on animal forms such as swan, bull, eagle (usually for nefarious purposes); egyptian gods - depicted with animal heads, human bodies; skinwalker legends - north american legends about gods/beings who can shift into animal form - often take the form of a wolf (werewolf); or can be seen with a human body and dog head (rather like the egyptian god anubis); mexican gods - were-jaguar gods - they shifted from human into jaguar form; europe: vampire legends - they shift from human to wolf or bat; also legends of giant black dogs (werewolf legends) like hound of baskervilles - all over england and in europe like france - where there is an account of the king ordering the hunting/killing of one); also we have legends of witches and wizards being able to shift into animal form - any animal they like - think of madam mim when she turns into a dragon in sword and the stone. Compare to native american skinwalker/witch legends. pretty similar.
hunt for the skinwalker is a good book.

and yes... i am a twilight fan.

sorry people. but there are a lot of harry potter fans out there, and you scare me quite frankly. that was seriously the worst movie ive ever seen... ha ha (i am almost scared of retaliation now).

i will admit that love stories involving the two MIGHT be stretching it. but then, you never know, do you?

but i do feel bound to state, that whether its real or not, it looks NOTHING LIKE a bear. seriously people, you all need glasses or else have never looked at a photo of a bear before.

debunk all you like, but please. that is just daft.

I totally believe in werewolves and vampires etc, whilst i can relate to many sceptics that seeing is believing, there is much in this world that we dont know about. Untill i see 100% proof otherwise, i'll always be a believer.

Anyone who has ever played with photoshop enough, would be able to spot a fake. Who knows - could be just someone dressed up. Thought it's a pretty amazing fake wouldn't you agree?

Thanks for sharing the photo though.

I just wanted to post this portion that's 600% enlarged, brightness/contrast only. I took the image from the original link, when you click on the photo you get a larger version.

Whatever is in the photo, it's definitely there. You can tell by doing this yourself, doing what I listed above. Not ruling out that it's a statue of some sort but it seems the eyes are reflecting light (they seem to have that infamous camera red-eye)

Michigan-Dogman.com is pure garbage. This is extremely evident, if not obvious. For heaven's sake, PLEASE do research before spreading this kind of fungus all over ATS. You can see how gullible some people are, just by reviewing this post. What a waste.



Cheers?

No "they" don't. There's absolutely nothing red in that incredibly pixelated image. What on earth made you say something like that? It appears that you're reaching for things that aren't there.

Hoax tags time I think.

Nice research guys. I'll just quote myself from the start to be a smart alec:

It just looks like someone used the magic wand to cut out a werewolf from a movie poster or something, chucked a blur filter on it and put it in the photo.

Added emphasis

I'm convinced this is a real werewolf.

Sometimes the most startling photographs that look too good to be true are the real deals.

S+F for you, OP and thanks for posting.

Its from the Movie "Dogsoldiers"

It is a still from a video. Wich means it is distorted and blurred. if you had the video it would probably just look like a bear.

Thank God it is finally resolved. Werewolves and vampires do not exist. Two mysteries we can finally lay to rest.
By the way, can you show the evidence, the research, the numbers? Oh please don't be another one of these jerks who think they can decide on the reality of a phenomena based on nothing but their feelings about it. I was just about to throw out my own research notes. Tell me it's more than this, please. Your sources sir?
