Think more Van Helsing and less Underworld.[/quote]
Exactly! Van Helsing is a great reference if you're wanting to try and picture setting a little clearer. :) Or, think Buffy flashbacks to Europe.

Here are some images to help paint a better picture.

Negronomicon - I actually really love the idea of there being a human who is tracking the movements of the lycans and hunters. Even though this takes place in the 1800's, there still are ways of remaining anonymous. If your character is wealthy, for instance, they could hire a servant to deliver the news (in pamphlet or letter form) to others. Or, they could simply wear a mask when spreading news and information.
