VFTB 070: Judd Burton — Vampires, Werewolves, and the Nephilim

vampire werewolf

VAMPIRES AND werewolves are big business right now, maybe even bigger than during the heyday of Lugosi, Karloff, and Chaney.  Dr. Judd Burton, author of Interview With the Giant: Ethnohistorical Notes on the Nephilim (not Interview With the Ghost, as Derek incorrectly said in the introduction), discusses the legends and offers a disturbing theory for the true origins of the monsters.

  1. Hi Id just like to say that in Nebuchanezzarss case he did not beleive he was a warewolf.

    Some call it generally insania zoanthropica and more specifically in Nebuchadnezzar’s case, boanthropy, the delusion that one is an ox.

  2. Thanks for the comments James. However, I don’t think this is boanthropy in its purest form. Perhaps there are elements, but likewise there are elements of lycanthropy. The text in Daniel 4 is clear that Nebuchadnezzar is living with wild animals as opposed to domesticates, like oxen. Maybe this case is a combination of both. You’ve given me something to think about. Godspeed.
