Back in Oklahoma a small town where I used to be a police officer
they have a cemetery there that people come from miles around to do a rubbing of a certain
tombstone. The inscription on the stone reads " Murdered by Human Wolves" The girls name was Catherine Cross she died in 1880 or so don't recall the exact date. So if you should be traveling through southern Seminole county in Oklahoma look for a town called Konawa the name is indian for String of Beads.

Human wolves, huh? I'm a huge werewolf fan... I may need to make a pilgrimage to see this.
What's supposed to happen when you rub the tombstone?
Edit: Here's a link with more info.

Well, when I read the article associated with that link, it sounds as if poor Katherine maybe died at the hands of illegal abortionists. Probably "human wolves" was just a disparaging term for doctors who were "preying" on young woman at the time, performing this then-illegal surgery.
