THAT'S WEIRD......!! : WEREWOLF's
Werewolves, also known as
lycanthropes from the Greek
λυκάνθρωπος, λύκος (wolf) and
άνθρωπος (human, man), are mythological or folkloric humans with the ability to shift shape into wolves or anthropomorphic wolf-like creatures, either purposely, by being bitten or scratched by another werewolf, or after being placed under a curse.
Werewolves are often granted extra-human strength and senses, far beyond those of both wolves or men. The werewolf is generally held as a European character, although its lore spread through the world in later times. Shape-shifters, similar to werewolves, are common in tales from all over the world, most notably amongst the Native Americans, though most of them involve animal forms other than wolves.
Werewolves are a frequent subject of modern fictional books, although fictional werewolves have been attributed traits distinct from those of original folklore, most notably the vulnerability to silver bullets. Werewolves continue to endure in modern culture and fiction, with books, films and television shows cementing the werewolf's stance as a dominant figure in horror.

Here is a story of a 11-year-old
"werewolf" boy who desperately seeks a cure for his condition is baffling medical experts.
Pruthviraj Patil is one of 50 in the world who suffers from
"hypertrichosis", a rare genetic condition known as
Werewolf Syndrome.
As a result his face and body is covered in thick, matted hair. But he is hoping doctors will one day find a cure for his ailment.
Born in the Indian district of Sangli, near Bombey, he hardly ever leaves his village because of his fear of being traunted by strangers.The only parts of his body that are not covered with hair are the palms of his hands and soles of his feet. The son of a farmer, his parents have tried homeopathy, traditional Ayurvedic remedies and laser surgery. But none of them have worked. It is believe his genetic condition was caused by a flaw during pregnancy.
"Why did God do this to us," his 32-year-old mother Anita pleads. "He looks so odd and whever we go people throng to see him."
Plastic surgeon Vinay, Saoji has examined the boy and confirms that the condition is very rare. Pruthviraj says he is anxious to get the hair removed but even after laser treatment it simply grows back.
WOW..... That's weird!!! The doctors don't have any answers to his predicament. When he first went to school he said he got bullied and the other children laughed at him. But now they have got used to him and they treat him like normal.He appealed to the doctors to help find him a permanent cure.
Hmmmm Hope the doctors find a cure soon......
