The Werewolf of Ponkert
The Werewolf of Ponkert is a collection of two horror short stories by H. Warner Munn. It was published in book form with its sequel in 1958 by The Grandon Company in an edition of 350 unnumbered copies, all of which were signed by the author.
The volume was reissued as a hardback book by Centaur Books of New York in 1971, and as a paperback edition in 1976.
The first story, "The Werewolf of Ponkert" arose from a comment by H.P. Lovecraft suggesting a story written from the werewolf's point of view. The volume is dedicated to Lovecraft.
The stories, from Munn's Tales of the Werewolf Clan series, first appeared in the magazine Weird Tales. The first story was originally published in Weird Tales magazine, Vol. 6, No. 1, Issue 22, July 1925. The sequel, "The Werewolf's Daughter" was published in Weird Tales, Vol. 12, No. 4, No. 5 & No. 6 in October 1928, November 1928 & December 1928.
