Un terribile omicida seriale, Eddie Quist (Robert Picardo), viene ucciso dalla polizia, ma una giornalista televisiva, Karen White (Dee Wallace), che ha avuto un incontro ravvicinato con lui ed è stata determinante per la sua cattura, è sconvolta. Per riprendersi va nella clinica dello psichiatra Waggner (Patrick Macnee): incontra parecchia gente strana, ma ciò che la colpisce sono gli ululati che sente provenire dalla foresta ai cui margini sorge la clinica. Ben presto scopre che appartengono a temibili lupi mannari.
