Peter Hale

Peter Hale is an Alpha werewolf, as well as Derek’s uncle.

While most of his family perished in the fire at the Hale home in Beacon Hills, Peter survived. He was left comatose and badly scarred.

His werewolf nature allowed him to heal completely, albeit slowly, over the intervening years.

In Wolf's Bane, Peter explains to Derek that he killed Laura Hale and became The Alpha that has menaced Scott and the rest of the cast throughout Season 1.

He was apparently aided in his crimes by a nurse at Beacon Hill's Long Term Care Facility.

Other than a penchant for killing and dramatic gestures, little else is known about the character. He says that his personality was “burned away” in the fire that killed his family.

His other kills include: Jerrison Myers, a video store clerk, a janitor from the high school, and two drunk men in the woods. All, except the janitor, had something to do with the murder of the Hale family.
