Local legend about a werewolf from "summary" of The Werewolf of Fever Swamp by R. L. Stine
Deep in the heart of Fever Swamp, the locals whispered about a creature that prowled the marshes under the light of the full moon. They spoke of a half-man, half-beast that roamed the dark woods, howling at the night sky. The legend of the werewolf was passed down from generation to generation, a cautionary tale to keep children from straying too far into the swamp. The townspeople believed that the werewolf was once a man who had been cursed by a witch. Every month, when the moon was full, the curse would take hold, transforming him into a fearsome creature with sharp claws and glowing eyes. The werewolf was said to be a solitary creature, hunting in the shadows and feasting on unsuspecting animals that wandered too close to its lair. Despite the warnings, some skeptics dismissed the legend as nothing more than a bedtime story meant to scare children. But as strange occurrences began to plague Fever Swamp, even the most hardened skeptics began to question their beliefs. Livestock went missing, strange footprints appeared in the mud, and a sense of unease settled over the town. The protagonist of the story, Grady, found himself caught up in the mystery of the werewolf when his family moved to Fever Swamp. As he explored the marshes and encountered strange sights and sounds, he couldn't shake the feeling that something sinister lurked in the shadows. With each passing day, Grady became more convinced that the legend of the werewolf was more than just a story – it was a terrifying reality. As the full moon rose over Fever Swamp, Grady found himself face to face with the creature of the legend. The werewolf's howl echoed through the night, sending a shiver down Grady's spine. In that moment, he knew that the local legend was true – there was a werewolf in Fever Swamp, and it was hungry for blood. And as the moonlight bathed the marshes in an eerie glow, Grady realized that he was in the fight of his life against a creature straight out of his worst nightmares.
