Personality
Cycle of the werewolf
Cycle of the Werewolf
He is the town's Reverend who is hiding a dark secret unconsciously: he is a werewolf that has been terrorizing the town for months, killing several people. Until in May, he had a dream in which everyone in the congregation turned into a werewolf and finding next day Cycle Corliss' gutted body. This let him know that something was wrong with him after waking up feeling amazingly during the period when the moon is full. He decided to simply ignore all signs or things that were present to him.
However, when young, wheelchair-bound Marty Coslaw wanders out at night to shoot fireworks during the fourth of July, he is attacked by the werewolf. Luckily, before the werewolf can kill him, Marty uses firecrackers to blow the creature's left eye out, blinding it and giving Marty enough time to flee. The next day, Lowe wakes up blind in one eye and with the signs he had previously ignored. Until this point, he could deny that was he was the werewolf or the Beast.
However, the day Marty return from Vermont after Labor Day, Marty begins hunting for a one-eyed man, and he discovers during Halloween that Lester Lowe is now wearing an eyepatch, and the similarities in his face to the werewolf, meaning that he is the only possible man who could be the werewolf. This discovery didn't surprised Lowe since, Marty was in a costume to recognize him as the child who he tried to attack.
When Marty send him letters unsigned and without salutation, this frighten Lowe to the point he lit all the letters he keep receiving from Marty on a large glass ashtray. The first letter or note said, "I know who you are". The second said, "If you are a man of God, get out of town. Go someplace where there are animals for you to kill but no people.". The third said, "End it.". Finally, the recent one said, "Why don't you kill yourself?". Lowe thinks petulantly, after reading each note that he didn't ask to become a werewolf. He simply became a werewolf. He remembers of what happened last November. He finds that killing himself makes other look like animals and want to know who is writing to him the notes or blackmailing him.
Silver Bullet
After a failed attempt to kill Marty, Lowe kills the town's sherriff, changes into his werewolf form and hunts the Coslaw house where Marty, his sister and uncle are at, and attempts to kill them all, but meets his demise when Marty shoots a homemade silver bullet into the werewolf's right eye, killing him.
