The Werewolf Mystery

Did the werewolf begin in the shadows of a forest, or within the fragile walls of the human mind?

In this episode, Mega Alpha Tech travels across the fabric of time to investigate one of Earth’s most enduring terrors. From the blood-stained banquet of an ancient Greek king to the drug-fueled fury of the Norse Berserkers, we peel back the layers of fur and myth to find the startling truth.

Is lycanthropy a supernatural curse, or a misunderstood medical phenomenon documented by the greatest physicians in history? We explore the legendary "Corvinus" plague of Romania, the tragic "wolf-children" of the Sacharozan family, and the profound psychological insights of scholars like Ibn Sina.

This isn't just a story about monsters; it’s a journey into how humans have historically dealt with fear, isolation, and the wild instincts that live inside us all. Join us as we uncover why the beast in the mirror is often more terrifying than the one in the woods.
