The correct answer is - Lunacy.

 

Greek philosopher Aristotle and Roman historian Pliny the Elder suggested that the brain was the “moistest” organ in the body and thereby most susceptible to the pernicious influences of the moon, which triggers the tides.

 

Belief in the “lunar lunacy effect,” or “Transylvania effect,” as it is sometimes called, persisted in Europe through the Middle Ages, when humans were widely reputed to transmogrify into werewolves or vampires during a full moon.

 

Even today many people think the mystical powers of the full moon and its lunar effect induces erratic behaviours, psychiatric hospital admissions, suicides, homicides, emergency room calls, traffic accidents etc.
