    In stories about werewolves, what is their weakness?

    Question #69658. Asked by ganondorf319. (Aug 13 06 3:15 PM)

    		Most modern references agree that a werewolf can be killed if shot by a silver bullet, although this is more a reflection of fiction's influence than an authentic feature of the folk legends. A werewolf can be killed by complete destruction of heart or brain; silver isn't necessary.

    		They are allergic to silver, but severe damage to their body and/or organs would kill them.

    		If you mean weaknesses in the stories, it's their total unbelievability.
