but his body changes from man to monster at 12'0 clock midnight strike at a fullmoon night, this is totally a werewolf cult. also when mahira suddenly appeared and he hid behind the bushes he eyes were burning like wolves.and on the backdrop during midnight they used continuous howls of wolves/ jackals ...that must be symbolic too !
either cvs have very little ideas , knowledge about the things they r dealing with, the nature and usual myths about these supernatural creatures or they r creating a new one that suits their purpose.

Mahira screamed because she was totally spooked out seeing the guy out of nowhere.
