Like many of you I have a preference in terms of how I like my werewolves to look. That said, I definitely appreciate diversity in ideas; as well as the classics.  For instance, the werewolves in my novel Apex Predator are definitely wolfish albeit two legged beasts (with a muzzle and wolf-like head on top of a muscular fur covered body).

However, you gotta love Lon Chaney Jr. and his representation of Larry Talbot in 1941’s The Wolf Man.  Here’s a pic I like quite a bit of Lon relaxing in character, and with his dog.

RIP.  You are an inspiration even now, nearly 80 years later.
