Miss St Denis decided to pack her things and made her way out of the station. Glancing back, she was horrified to see that the man was now following her. She quickened her pace and started to whistle in order to appear unconcerned. It was now twilight and the path had taken her to a remote spot surrounded by cliffs and disused quarries.

Realising that a cry for help would go unheard she decided to confront her stalker. She spun round and shouted ‘What do you want? How dare you?’ He didn’t respond. As he drew nearer she was now able to see him clearly as the last rays of sunlight fell on the path. He was not a man after all. The ‘Thing’ appeared to be covered in grey hair and, although human in form, had a wolf’s head. It sprang forward with a look of ferocity on its face. The terrified woman quickly grabbed a torch from her pocket and shone it at the beast.

The Thing shrank back, its paws trying to hide the light from its face. It then faded away leaving her alone in the darkness.” The “shaken but unhurt” Miss St Denis asked locals for an explanation. They had no real explanation for her, only the rumours of missing cattle and a collection of bones, some human and some animal, that had been discovered in a slate quarry near to where the wolf-man had vanished. Nearby residents shun the area after dusk as it had a “bad reputation”.
