“The Mummified Remains of a Werewolf”
Born in 1821, Cornelius S.C. Rödder came from a wealthy noble family of German descent and he pursued medical studies in Copenhagen. In 1856, while traveling in Italy, he stumbled upon strange writings and bizarre specimens. This encounter introduced him to Thomas Merrylin, the famed crypto-naturalist and xeno-archaeologist from London. Inspired by Merrylin, Rödder shifted his focus to the occult and the 'Dark World', amassing an extraordinary collection of cryptozoological artifacts that now resides in the museum. Vampires, fairies, baby dragons, werewolves -- Welcome to the Museum Obscurum! Homo lupus, The Lycanthrope (Commonly known as the 'werewolf') -- This specimen belongs to a species of bipedal hominid, closely related to Homo sapiens and Homo vampyrus (vampire). Its wolf-like traits may result from a genetic mutation caused by a virus. This particular specimen is a 15-year-old female who likely died from starvation. She was the last acquisition of anthropologist Edward Harrell, a colleague of Thomas Merrylin.
