Peter Stubbe/Stumpf (Part 1)

Part 1 is typically filled with information about the person of interest; such as where they were born, to whom, and what they were named by their parents. However, with this particular individual; we may not be able to cover all of those bases. But, we will do our best with the information that we have. I mean, this dude hasn’t been around since basically the 200s after all. And most of the information that IS known about him, comes from a 16-page pamphlet published in London in 1590; and rediscovered in 1920, by none other than an occultist. Which; we will come back to later. For now, I will tell you that he was called many different things. Some of his aliases were: Peter Stumpp (S-T-U-M-P-P), Peter Stube (S-T-U-B-E), Peeter Stubbe (with 2 Bs), Peter Stumpff (S-T-U-M-P-F), and some sources even referred to him as William Stumpf, Abal Griswold, Abil Griswold, and Ubel Griswold. ALthough there were many names for him and sources seem to use them interchangeably; one aspect remained the same across all sources. His moniker was “The Werewolf of Bedburg”. Too many names…and too many unknowns already; I know. But keep listening, this gets interesting. ------ For this episode, I tried to stick to the dates and the facts that we knew about him/his criminal life. In part 2, We will delve more into our thoughts regarding his crimes and behavior. So, join us tomorrow for Part 2 - where Brittany (From Where The Weird Things Are Podcast) and I will do a deep dive discussion about the case, the people involved, our thoughts regarding nature vs nurture, and much more.
