Fans of Teen Wolf can hear the howling of wolves once again in Beacon Hills. The supernatural teen drama was a hit television show that aired on MTV from 2011 until 2017. Teen Wolf was riding the wave of popularity brought upon by The Vampire Diaries and Twilight that created a worldwide fandom catered to vampires, werewolves, and teen drama. The MTV series had its own fan base that made it successful and had fans upset when it finished after six seasons.

On Sept.24, MTV announced the series would return to Beacon Hills in a Teen Wolf movie on Paramount+. Fans were in an uproar over the news as many hoped and dreamed the main cast and the story would make a comeback ever since its end on television. Before the movie’s big debut in 2022, fans might want to binge-watch the series once or maybe multiple times. Six seasons of Teen Wolf will be a piece of cake, especially as it is readily available on certain streaming platforms.

A normal teen gets bit by a werewolf in the forest

Teen Wolf is a television adaption of the 1985 Michael J. Fox movie of the same name but with a differentiating storyline. Scott McCall (Tyler Posey) is like any other awkward teen attending high school in Beacon Hills. One night before his sophomore year of high school, he is bitten by an alpha werewolf in the forest. Scott must now balance his normal teen life and his heightened new reality as a werewolf.

By Scott’s side is his best friend, Stiles Stilinski, played by actor Dylan O’Brien, the son of the local police chief. Scott’s once dismal high school teen life is drastically changed with his new werewolf abilities, and he becomes a lacrosse star. He also becomes smitten with the new girl. Being a werewolf is not all fun and games when hunters soon threaten him, and Scott learns more about the supernatural events surrounding Beacon Hills.
