Factual Origins of Myths

Many cultures have developed myths and legends rooted in the ideas of vampirism, lycanthropy, and witchcraft. According to anthropological currents, these stories don’t come up from nothing, but follow a process of transformation of elements drawn from real experiences eventually transformed into fictional stories depending on the message they are meant to spread. Every legend has an origin in history, an event with no plausible explanation at the time due to lack of scientific technology and resources. Although, reality can be described in scientific terms. These possible facts connected to mythology do not entirely explain the success of myth in folklore, but only some more or less impressive aspects following these legends. These facts when turned and twisted by imagination and superstitious thinking create these inexplicable enthralling stories which undoubtedly would be passed down to generations as souvenirs of history, culture, and civilization
