Make Titanic passengers werewolf food in the upcoming Eerie Canal game “Dreadline”
2012-05-18
1UP and other game news sites are spreading the giddy (if slightly uneasy) word about an upcoming game from Eerie Canal. The premise of Dreadline is just as delicious as it is ludicrous: you play as one of four monsters (a mummy, an ominous floating cube, a ghost with a knife and backpack, or a werewolf in pigtails) who travels through time, visiting calamitous events in which many people died. The monters’ goal is to – wait for it – kill as many…

Werewolf Wednesday Digest – May 2012, Part 1
2012-05-16
It’s been a few weeks since my last celebration of Werewolf Wednesday, but when I woke up in my Boston hotel room this morning, I had this inspirational image by Tandye in my inbox, so I knew the time was right. Being married to a talented artist who loves werewolves as much as I do is what you might call “an optimal scenario” (and she’s available for commissions on DA & FA). Now that Tandye’s set things in motion, let’s do this. I’m…

Trailer & screens from upcoming werewolf puzzle game “MacGuffin’s Curse”
2012-01-11
I’m an easy guy to charm, but MacGuffin’s Curse by award-winning Australian game company Brawsome is bound to make even the grimmest, most hardcore werewolf fan crack a smile. It’s a “top-down action puzzling and character-based story adventure”, which is really just a gaming PR way of saying “crack for game nerds who like words” (and in this case, werewolves). From the game’s IndieDB page: When fugitive magician Lucas MacGuffin bungles a museum robbery, he finds himself: (a) magically bound to…

TES V: Skyrim Werewolves – More Info
2011-11-14
About a week ago, we reported some information based on pre-release gameplay footage of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim that it was possible to become a werewolf in the game. Skyrimwas released on Friday, and I’ve spent all weekend playing it; I can happily report that this is indeed the case. Unlike vampirism, which in the Elder Scrolls series is often not worth the power it grants due to the serious drawbacks and the difficulty in curing the condition, being…

Play as a Werewolf in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
2011-11-07
Quite a few people have emailed and tweeted me with news that the upcoming The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has werewolves as playable characters – and that is completely awesome. Reader Leventa writes: From what I’ve seen of the game being played, you can transform into a werewolf once per day at will, and can run on all fours, stand up, attack people with claws, do finishers where you shove people to the ground and maul them, eat bodies to prolong your transformation…

Yet Another MMO, But This Time With Werewolves
2011-10-21
Via VG247, there are reports of the Korean branch of Epic Games working on an MMORPG called Bless, to be powered by Unreal Engine 3 and published by Neowiz, who most recently brought the free-to-play Alliance of Valiant Arms to Steam. As yet, there’s no news on when it’ll be released, or whether it’ll be available in Korea-only or worldwide. From the teaser trailer below, it seems to hit most of the generic fantasy buttons, with one notable exception: it’s…

Vicious new “Dog Soldiers” Horror T-Shirt from Fright Rags
2011-08-02
Original artwork representing the awesomeness of the only film to challenge An American Werewolf in London as the best werewolf film of all time? Of course this needs to clothe your body. Can you think of any reasons to not purchase, own and wear this new Dog Soldiers t-shirt from horror apparel champs Fright Rags? No? Neither can I. Get it now for $19.95 and do it soon, because Fright Rags shirts have a habit of selling out fast.
Werewolf bikini set from Iron Fist
2011-07-09
Last year Iron Fist brought you werewolf-themed high heels, flats and clutch purses, and now their product designers have turned their sights on the beach scene with this werewolf print bikini set. This is good. This is sensible. This is how you build a brand. The regular price is $48.00 US, but as of this post the bikini set is on sale for $30.00, and sizes run from XS to 2XL. If you are a lady of any shape or…

Legohaulic’s Astounding “Little Red Riding Hood” Lego Scene, Including Articulated Wolf
2011-05-01
Werewolf News reader Crimson Beast sent me a link to this mind-blowing Lego creation by Tyler Clites, aka Legohaulic. Click the photo below for a slightly larger version, or visit the photo set on Flickr for two alternate views. Check out that monster! Check out those insane trees! Legohaulic built this stunner in December 2010 as an entry in the Fairy Tale category of The Classic Castle’s CCCVIII contest, presumably from stock Lego parts. He doesn’t seem to have a web site…

New “Ravenous” Werewolf Mask from The Horror Dome: Needs Visine but Still Dang Scary
2011-04-28
Around this time last year, The Horror Dome released a great “Big Bad Wolf” werewolf costume, then followed it up with a baby werewolf puppet (as awesome as it sounds). This year they have a new werewolf mask called “Ravenous”. I like it. It’s got more of a “wolfman” look than last year’s Big Bad, but that definitely works for an over-the-head latex mask that’s not likely to have the internal structural support for a decent muzzle. I’m digging the hand-laid…
