werewolf curse

Bestial lunar affliction

A werewolf curse is a supernatural affliction that compels a person to transform into a wolf or wolf-human hybrid, typically during the full moon.

In folklore and fiction, the curse may be transmitted through a werewolf's bite, cast by a witch, or inherited through bloodline.

The cursed person often loses control during transformation and remembers nothing afterward: He's been trying to break the werewolf curse for years.
