Question about the werewolves


Just something that's been bugging me far a little while... when one turns into a fully-fledged werewolf in the GS movies, do they stay in that form permanently, or only for a while?

Another question, what would happen if a fully transformed werewolf was shot with monkshood? would it do another main transformation into the human form or something else?

I always thought that once the transformation was complete, you couldn't go back?

Honestly, it's impossible to say, since the werewolves are typically killed shorty after they turn. But, given the slow transformation and the werewolf in this one is constantly in wolf form, if I had to hazard a guess I would say it's permament

Personally I want to say permanent, but I honestly don't know.

The male werewolf chasing Bridgette in this movie is only seen in wolf form. I'm not sure how long Bridgette is in the mental asylum, but it's a few days at least. So, we're to either assume that once you're a werewolf you are like that permanentnly, werewolves can change back and forth whenever they want, or she just happened to be caught during the start of the full moon. Although, being caught during a full moon could explain why she is transforming faster than usual.

We've never seen a werewolf change back to human. All the werewolves in all the movies either die before they become wolves or as wolves. There's no real comparison.

Because the first movie treated lycanthropy as an STD, I would think think this leads to it being more permanent. Once you have herpes, you always have herpes. However, the full moon could be "outbreaks" and the rest of the time you are normal.

Considering they changed around all the rules on us, I am not sure. There's evidence for it either way. I would tend to go more towards permanent simply because it makes Bridgette's fight of the disease that much tougher to deal with. There's no point in constantly poisoning herself if she only changes to a wolf for three nights during a full moon, and is normal the rest of the time.

In these movies, werewolf transformation has nothing to do with the full moon.

i thought it was pretty obvious that it was a slow transformation and would eventually become permanent, similar to jeff goldblum's character's transformation in the fly.

brigitte summed it up in the first film. saying something along the lines of "i'm changing, like right now, and full moons have nothing to do with it."

I'm assuming its permenant but we can't be sure because no wolf in any of the films has lived long enough to turn back.

From the way it's presented, you'd have to say permanent, or at least long-term. From the fact that the changes are gradual over about a month, and that it changes the personality, too, it looks permanent.

There's also a metaphorical tie that suggests finality: if it's like adolescence, it's irreversible.

Referring to werewolf legends, Pliny the Younger back in Rome reported a man who spent seven years as a wolf before turning back.

Maybe there are different forms or mutations of lycanthropy? Maybe it's like cicadas, where you have the annuals, the six year, the thirteen year and the seventeen year species.
