The concept of the werewolf goes back to the oral tradition, that is before there was a trustworthy writing system to record everything. It definitely goes back to the early bronze age at least. Even these early people were aware of psychosis or the creature within.

The earliest known werewolf stories in Europe date back to ancient Greece, Ovid, Virgil and Herodotus all wrote about them. The myth spread until most European countries had their own versions of the myth.

There are quite a few werewolf stories and myths so the stories go way back.

But the first recorded Werewolf sighting took place around the countryside of German town Colongne and Bedburg in 1591. An age-old pamphlet describes those shivering moments vividly. Few people cornered a large wolf and set their dogs upon it. They started to pierce it with sharp sticks and spears. Surprisingly the ferocious wolf did not run away or tried to protect itself, rather it stood up and turned out to be a middle-aged man he was Peter Stubbe from the same village.
