Plot
It is now senior year for the teens at Beacon Hills High School and everyone prepares for their future. Of course, nothing is ever simple for these guys as they have a whole new bevy of baddies to contend with, not the least of which include a trio of Steampunk-inspired scientists called the Dread Doctors, who capture people and perform strange experiments upon them, turning them into monsters.

Then there's Theo Raeken - a former classmate of Scot and Stiles whom they have known since the fourth grade. Returning to Beacon Hills after having been away for a number of years, Theo is now a werewolf, having been turned by the same Alpha that once turned the twins', Ethan and Aiden. The ever-paranoid Stiles Stilinsky has an innate distrust of Theo - and with good reason!
