The Hale Family

The Hale Family is a family of Werewolves appearing in MTV's Teen Wolf.

History

The family is credited with protecting and, at one time, helping to rebuild the town of Beacon Hills. (Galvanize, 117)

It is implied they were wealthy as they have a vault underneath the Beacon Hills High School and one in North Carolina. (Broken Glass)

The family garnered respect from notable Alphas like Deucalion, Satomi, and Ennis for their deeds as well as for Talia Hale's power and wisdom. Any Beta or Omega who knew of the pack would often seek them out for refuge too. (Omega)

Most of the family members died in an arson fire six years prior to the events of the series' first episode. Since then, the remaining Hales either sought vengeance for their decimation or scattered around and found other packs to survive in.
