I think you are really on to something with the concept that the scariest part of a werewolf is being one. All of the greatest werewolf movies have this as a theme. From Lon Chaney in The Wolfman to David in American Werewolf in London, haunted by the ghost of his best friend and taunted by his victims, Ginger Snaps.

The Howling could be seen as a woman's journey into the dark realm of lycanthropy.

"Knowing that there's no way you can stop what's coming, and that you would be a danger to everyone you loved" excellent point and well said. Thank you.
