Summary

Brother Richard returns for our annual Christmas chat. We explore the idea of the wild man and, perhaps, the dogman/werewolf being an even more savage, wilder version of our modern wild man. We also discuss Saint Christopher and the cynocephalic saints – those who are pictured with dog heads; werewolves; Saint Patrick’s and Saint Natalis’ werewolf legends; the woodwose; Christmas wild men; and more.
