| abstract | - According to legend a Werehyena was capable of taking three main forms: that of a human, that of a large hyena or a hybrid of the two species - they could be solitary or work in packs and had a liking of calling out people's names at night in an attempt to lure them away from their friends and family, if a victim fell for this trick the Werehyena would proceed to devour them. Evil magicians and witches were accused of being able to transform into these monsters at will and African superstition also blamed blacksmiths for supposed Werehyena attacks as many villages believed that blacksmiths were especially prone to becoming such creatures. Unlike werewolves the Werehyena was not restrict in when he or she could appear but they prefered the shadow of night and when not stalking human prey they were said to engage in all manner of depravity including grave-robbing, cannibalism and piratical raids on villages and crops.
