Howline - The Charity That Supports Werewolves
Welcome to Howline. We're the charity that helps werewolves, whether freshly-turned or born with wolfsblood. We do this through providing vetted advice, clear and accessible information, campaigns, education, and live 24/7 support lines.
How can we help you?
Our top asked questions, and their answers.I'm newly turned
If you've recently become a werewolf, you're going to experience a lot of new things you may have little idea about. We understand that the event of a bite can be often traumatising and upsetting for many people. Here at Howline, we offer information, confidential support, and classes for the new werewolf.

I know someone who is newly turned
Supporting someone through the transition to lycanthropy can be difficult. It can be a scary, worrying time when someone you care about is going through a complex change, and we here at Howline know that. We have advice to help you support other people, and yourself. We also allow non-werewolves to participate in some classes to learn more about the condition and how to manage it safely.

I'm looking for information on werewolves
Howline offers a comprehensive free online database about the history and physiology of werewolves, which can be accessed here.
For further reading, we recommend viewing the website of the Royal College of Supernatural Study, the largest library of supernatural records in Europe.
I need urgent help
If someone you know is about to transform and poses a danger of hurting themselves or others through the change, immediately call 999 and ask for the police. Tell the operator there is a werewolf at risk. Evacuate the area and stay far away from the transforming wolf. Do not try and reason with the wolf. Do not approach the wolf. Do not alert the wolf to your presence. Remove yourself from the situation and wait for emergency responders.
If you are about to transform and you do not have control of your wolf, immediately call 999 and inform the operator you are an uncontrolled werewolf and you are about to transform. If possible, lock yourself in a room with solid brick or concrete walls. Don't try and restrain yourself in any way- chains, ropes, handcuffs or other items will only injure you and will not stop the wolf. Keep far away from other people. DO NOT APPROACH CROWDED AREAS.
If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of self-harm and suicide, please contact our helpline, or view these resources. In case of immediate threat to life through self-induced means, call 999 and ask for the ambulance service.
