I am doing a research paper for my English class. The topic I chose is to disprove the existence of werewolves. I'm not saying that I believe or don't believe in werewolves. It's just a paper. What I need help with, is finding the names of the plants mentioned in werewolf myths. I have read several myths that tell of the werewolf rubbing their bodies with plants in order to transform. I can't find these myths. All I need is the plant names so that I can fit them into my paper, along with their properties. Does anybody know which plants that have been mentioned in these myths as well as where to find these myths? Thank you in advance for your help.

Everything you need to do the homework yourself.

Thanks. I'm working on that as we speak. I was hoping somebody would know the plants off hand and save me some time. :)

Peruse Google, become acquainted with the library if not already, and don't trust Wikipedia.
You can find credible sources in no time.
And you're welcome. :)

hemlock, henbane, saffron, poppy seed, aloe, opium, asafoetida, solanum, and parsley are all plant ingredients that have been used to create hallucinogenic ointments, salves etc. historically for werewolf rituals and magic mixes.
