In folklore, a werewolf or occasionally lycanthrope is a human with the ability to shapeshift into a wolf (or, especially in modern film, a therianthropic hybrid wolf-like creature), either purposely or after being placed under a curse or affliction (often a bite or scratch from another werewolf) and especially on the night of a full moon. In ZOMBIES, they can't turn into a wolf but instead turn into a partial lupine form with glowing eyes, sharp claws and pointed teeth.
History[]
In the world of ZOMBIES, werewolves are creatures that have been around since Seabrook was first founded, and have been thriving in the Forbidden Forest.
Appearance[]
Werewolves usually wear rocker fashions with fur and usually wear brown, black, and dark purple colors with gold accents/touches. They mostly resemble humans and don't have a full wolf-like appearance typically shown in most kinds of media such as having fur all over their body, sharp teeth (other than fangs) or the look of a bipedal/four legged wolf. In there werewolf form they mostly look like humans but have sharp claws, pointed teeth and glowing yellow wolf eyes.

Trivia[]
- So far all the Werewolves names start with the letter "W" (Examples: Willa, Wyatt and Wynter)
- They all wear moonstone necklaces that help them become full werewolves. Without the necklaces, they would get sick and die.
- According to Wynter, werewolves are great singers.
- Wynter also states that when she and the rest of the pack find the moonstone, they will remain "wolf-strong" for another 100 years, meaning they actually are hundreds of years old or their moonstones will stay fully powered for 100 years.
- Since Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 3, Werewolves currently now live in Zombietown alongside Zombies.
