Small Town Monsters Delves Into ‘American Werewolves’ In New Documentary
Small Town Monsters continues asking questions and delving into the legend of werewolves with their latest documentary, American Werewolves. Seth Breedlove‘s newest project poses the question: do real werewolves exist? Breedlove presents a witness-focused study into the “dogman” phenomenon that pervades through American folklore.
