The Staten Island Werewolf Support Group is a pack of werewolves living in Staten Island. They appear in What We Do in the Shadows (TV series).

History[]

When Laszlo realized a werewolf had urinated on one of his topiary designs, he left a trap outside. The following night, Arjan, the group leader, got caught in it while in werewolf form. He lost consciousness and the vampires brought him inside while Guillermo bandaged his leg. He reverted back to human form, woke up and threatened the vampires before leaping out the window.

Soon after, Arjan recovered and returned with his pack, who urinated all over the vampires' garden. The werewolves prepared to fight Nadja and Laszlo until Nandor interrupted, demanding that the two groups follow the rules of “the truce”. He recited the Staten Island Lycanthrope Vampire Agreement of 1993, which states that they must get their strongest vampire to fight the pack’s strongest werewolf to settle the feud.

The vampires and werewolves decided to face each other on the roof of an abandoned Circuit City store. Nandor was chosen to face off against Toby, the largest werewolf of the pack. Toby transformed by merely imagining a full moon, but Nandor defeated him by throwing a squeaky bone toy off the roof, which Toby jumped after. The vampires flew away, leaving a frightened Guillermo at the scene, but the werewolves left him alone to look after Toby and requested to keep the bone.[1]

The pack encountered the vampires again in 2021 after one of its members, Anton, turned Nandor's on-and-off girlfriend Gail into a werewolf while dating her. The vampire roommates were shocked to discover this, but Nandor encouraged them to meet her pack again in order to overcome their prejudice.

The two groups met at a park and the vampires found Anton kissing Gail. Tensions flared up again and Guillermo had the two groups settle their differences “Twilight-style” with a game of kickball as Gail watched from a bench. The game came to an abrupt end when Nadja accidentally kicked the ball into Gail’s face and killed her. Nandor bit her neck and dripped his blood into her mouth, bringing her back as a vampire-werewolf hybrid. Nandor then proposed to Gail, but she rejected him before bidding farewell to everyone and flying away. The werewolves were later seen chasing after Laszlo's recovered Stutz Laszlo car when he took it for a test drive.[2]
