« When the moon is full the legend comes to life. »
Set in the late 1880s, the story keeps the plotline of the original, with Lawrence Talbot reuniting with his estranged father following the disappearance of his brother. Lawrence Talbot's childhood ended the night his mother died.
After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoore, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother's fiancée, Gwen Conliffe, tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable blood lust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector named Aberline has come to investigate.
