Episode 19: Exploring the Science and Myth of Werewolves. Transformations, Calories, and Handwavium

Join us at the Horror House in Chicago as we explore werewolf lore, the science of transformations, and dig into pop culture references from American Werewolf in London, The Wolfman to Ginger Snaps.
Rabbit Hole of Research takes over the Horror House!

In this episode, the Rabbit Hole of Research goes on the road to the Horror House in Avondale Chicago, “The Hub of Horror”. Georgia, Nick and Joe, along with shop owners Moses and Vinny, explore the world of werewolves. They dig into werewolf folklore, history, the science of transformation, and popular werewolf movies and media. Get your pen and paper ready to take note of all the werewolf movies and books mentioned (don’t worry you can find them in the show notes). This is a good way to start off a month of horror: Rabbit Hole of Research Style!

Content warning after episode ends: Once the conversation about werewolves end, there will be a fade out of music and a content alert for more sensitive listeners to stop. This was part of the conversation however, a little more adult language than our normal content. It was a bit of humorous banter about unusual horror-themed toys.

Go check out the Horror House in Avondale Chicago, in person or order online! And follow them on Instagram!

The Rabbit Hole of Research
Rabbit Hole of Research
Our goal is to have fun learning science through the lens of science fiction, fantasy, and pop-culture. We will start in one place and let the conversation lead us down the winding scenic road exploring the science in science fiction, separating the facts from the Handwavium. We’ll have a little fun and you’ll learn a few facts you can use to impress your friends at a party or use as a conversation starter to go down your own rabbit holes.
