Trolls

**Trolls** (not to be confused with internet trolls) are a species of supernatural creature originating from Scandinavia.

## Characteristics

Trolls have human-level intelligence and a mostly humanoid appearance, but are overall much taller and bulkier, and they have grey skin. Trolls are active at night but turn to stone during the day when the sun is out.

## History

One troll living in Medford, Massachusetts, became an internet troll under the alias of "Norman Hule" and caught the attention of the energy vampire Colin Robinson, who was trolling to gain energy on the internet. Norman kept making comebacks and threats to Colin’s trolling, which made Colin so angry that he tracked down Norman and got a lift all the way from Staten Island to Massachusetts. At night, Colin finally arrived at the café and found Norman nearby. The two began to argue, with Norman taking offense at the word “trolling”, and the two had a boring and pointless conversation all night, with Colin keeping Norman too bored to attack him. As the sun rose, Norman started to turn to stone, and Colin declared himself to be the “champion” troll. Before he could celebrate, Norman grabbed his arms and solidified, leaving Colin trapped.

St. Carrietta’s Girls High School

**St. Carrietta’s Girls High School** is an all-girls school in Wellington. It appears in *Wellington Paranormal*.

## The School

St Carrietta's, led by the principal Mrs. Hopper, has 840 students who wear green uniforms. According to the official school quilt, their motto is “St. Carrietta’s High School: Where Everything is Totally Fine”. The school’s facilities include a library, a sports hall, a textiles room, a computer room and a sick bay.

## History

Officer O’Leary attended St. Carrietta’s as a child and served as a prefect.

Around 2019, three social outcasts (Brianna A., Briannah H. and Bree-Anna Q.) while working as volunteer librarians discovered a spellbook, Moste Potente Spells, and gained supernatural powers from it. They caused an explosion in the witchcraft and folklore section of the library, causing several students to become injured. The Briannas used their telekinetic powers to bully girls who previously picked on them or asked “too many questions” and to shoplift potato chips from a nearby store.

The shoplifting prompted Officers O’Leary and Minogue to investigate, where they saw another bag of chips being levitated out the store. Upon inspecting the CCTV footage, the Paranormal Unit traced the girls to their school, where Mrs. Hopper, intimidated by the witches, insisted everything was completely fine. A student, Neve Robinson, gave evidence of the Briannas’ wrongdoings. The investigation caused the Briannas to use their powers to try to intimidate Neve and the officers by writing “FeAR THe BriANNAS” on a bathroom wall, sewing “SnitcHeS GeT STITCHeS” on the school quilt, levitating a sewing machine and stitching up the head and hand holes of Neve’s jersey.

That night, Minogue and O’Leary returned to the school library to find the girls chanting around the spellbook. While Minogue distracted them, O’Leary took the book and the witches pursued them to the hall. The girls used telekinesis to tie up Minogue with streamers and O’Leary threatened to tear up the book. Realising she couldn’t, O’Leary lectured them and told them that in tormenting others, the girls had become bullies themselves. The witches attempted to kill the two anyway and Minogue tased them by intentionally rebounding the taser off the spellbook.

The girls were sentenced to community service and were forced to remove graffiti and litter around the school.

A St. Carrietta's student was seen in a cable car when O'Leary and Minogue were pursuing the ghost of Officer Bill Miller at Wellington Botanic Garden.

Sharon Horn

*Not to be confused with Sharon, the wife of Bazza*.

**Sharon Horn** is a resident of Wellington and the ex-girlfriend of Shane Thompson. She appears in *Wellington Paranormal*.

## Biograpy

Sharon was born around 1970. When she was nineteen years old she dated a young man named Shane Thompson and the two lived together. Shane however seemed to love his car, a 1985 Nissan 300ZX - Z31, more than her. It got to the point where they would only get intimate when inside the car and Sharon kicked him out of her house. Upset, Shane drove the Nissan off a bay and into the ocean, killing himself and writing off the car. Sharon went on to have seven children and four grandchildren.

In 2019, the Nissan was renovated and sold to a man named Trent Corby. The car mysteriously drove away, leading the Paranormal Unit to suspect it was haunted. They found the car, but after towing it back to Trent’s house it drove away again. Suspecting the car may be trying to return to Shane’s last known place of residence, O’Leary and Minogue headed there and found Sharon. As she was telling them about Shane, the Nissan appeared outside. The three got in and saw Shane’s ghost in the rear-view mirror. Sharon explained to him that he had been dead for thirty years, which Shane had not realised.

The officers left the car so Sharon and Shane could be alone together, but when Sharon insisted she could not commit to a relationship with a dead man, Shane suddenly drove the Nissan away with her trapped inside. The officers chased after it until it was blocked by a van and attempted to free Sharon from the car, only to get locked in with her as it headed to the bank it previously drove off from. Shane finally stopped just short of the bank when Sharon said she would think of him as “a wanker” if he killed her.

The officers left the car while Sharon got intimate with Shane’s ghost. She got out of the Nissan and commented that she “just sent Shane to Heaven”. She and the Paranormal Unit watched as Shane drove a ghost version of the car into the afterlife.

The Night Market

"**The Night Market**" is the fourth episode of the fourth season of *What We Do in the Shadows*. It aired on July 26, 2022.

## Synopsis

The vampires take a trip to the secret Night Market, where all the supernatural creatures gather to barter and haggle.

## Plot Summary

Business at the vampire nightclub is going well thanks to Baby Colin's performances, but Nadja encounters a new problem when the nightclub's wraith workers decide to form a labor union. To try and solve the problem, she organizes a trip to the Night Market, a secret marketplace used by many types of supernatural creatures. While Nadja searches for a product that can help her deal with the wraiths, Laszlo takes the opportunity to educate Baby Colin on the ways of different supernatural cultures, and Nandor accidentally volunteers Guillermo to take part in a series of fights against other vampires' familiars. Guillermo wins all of the fights easily, but irritates the crowd by refusing to harm any of the other familiars. His last opponent is a powerful vampire, but Nandor steps in and volunteers to fight Guillermo himself instead, thereby protecting Guillermo from either dying or publicly killing a vampire. After a lengthy fight, in which Guillermo defeats Nandor, he devises a plan for them to escape, and Nandor pretends to snap his neck so the match can end without either of them dying. Nadja succeeds in purchasing a substance known as "water lily of the Nile," a powerful narcotic for wraiths, and uses it as leverage to bribe the wraiths' union leader, Xerxes; however, the other wraiths then kill him, so she reluctantly agrees to improve their working conditions.

UFOs

**UFO** stands for '**unidentified flying object'**. This term is applied to spaceships used to transport aliens, most notably extraterrestrial floras. While UFOs have taken many different shapes, all the UFOs encountered by the Wellington Police Paranormal Unit so far have appeared as large, silver disc-shaped spaceships. UFOs can also cause the phenomenon of crop circles.

## History

In 2018, O’Leary, Minogue and Maaka headed to a farm owned by Bazza to respond to reports of cows stuck in trees in the area. The Paranormal Unit correctly assumed that this was due to UFOs abducting them and then dumping them onto the trees. When the cops came to investigate, they found huge elaborate crop circles and hostile extraterrestrial floras, three of which attacked them before being cornered into a shed. In the morning, the floras secretly escaped, taking on the forms of the unit, and were rescued by a UFO.

Sometime later a UFO interrupted Minogue and O’Leary while they filmed a PSA on not distracting drivers.

The Paranormal Unit encountered even more floras in 2019 and fought back against them using slugs. The aliens were again rescued by a UFO, which disappeared into the sky.

Trent Corby

**Trent Corby** is a young man who bought a car, unaware that it was haunted by a ghost. He appears in *Wellington Paranormal*.

## Biography

Trent, a resident of Naenae, purchased a second-hand green 1985 Nissan 300ZX – Z31 and fully customised it himself. While working on the horn, he heard a creepy tune (identified by Officer Minogue to be *Are You Old Enough* by Dragon), a “mournful moaning” and a sinister voice telling him to “get out of my car”. Trent left the Nissan and it disappeared.

Trent reported the incident to Wellington Police and was interviewed by Minogue and O’Leary, who suspected that the car was haunted. Shortly afterwards, they heard reports of the car erratically driving by itself and they were eventually able to track it down and get it towed back to Trent’s house.

The Paranormal Unit investigated the car’s history at the station and found that its original owner was Shane Thompson, who killed himself in 1989 by driving the car off a bank into the ocean. As they were researching this, the Nissan took off again and burst out of Trent’s garage door, leaving him very distressed.

The officers tracked the car to Shane’s former residence, along with his ex-girlfriend Sharon. She was eventually able to persuade Shane's ghost to leave the car for the afterlife; it is not known if Trent took the now-harmless car back.

Staten Island Community College LARPing Club

## Staten Island Werewolf Support Group

**Staten Island Community College LARPing Club** is a live-action roleplaying society that was targeted by the local vampires due to the group’s supposedly high number of virgin members. The group appears in *What We Do in the Shadows* (TV series).

## History

Eager to supply his master Nandor with virgins, Guillermo found and befriended the group. He lured members Jenna and Jonathan to the house of the vampires’ home so that they could be used as food to celebrate a visit from Baron Afanas. However, before they could be eaten they were found by the energy vampire Colin Robinson, who drained both of them of their energy and left their blood unsuitable for feeding. As the Baron had gone back into a slumber, they were allowed to leave alive.

Sometime later, Nandor, Nadja and Laszlo eavesdropped on a LARPers meeting, with the intention of feeding on some of the attendees; however they were so depressed by the sights they saw that they elected simply to leave. Nadja took pity on Jenna after seeing her being bullied and mistreated by the other LARPers. Nadja later followed Jenna on her walk home and misled her into agreeing to being turned into a vampire.

Sentient fatbergs

**Sentient fatbergs** are fatbergs that have come to life.

## Characteristics

Fatbergs are masses of congealed fat that have collected in sewers. It is not known how, but a fatberg may come alive, gaining the appearance of pink slime with globs of white fat. They will absorb humans and animals, whose forms and thoughts will merge with that of the fatberg, causing the victims to be able to squeeze into thin spaces such as pipes and drain gratings. Fatbergs can be separated into smaller sentient pieces, which will lack intelligence if they have not absorbed any other beings. Fatbergs can be destroyed by fire, and any person removed from a fatberg will go back to normal and make a full recovery.

## History

In 2021, a fatberg in the sewers of Wellington became sentient and left the sewers, absorbing people in car washes and through toilets. It also consumed several animals. After the Paranormal Unit realized it could be destroyed with fire, they blew it up using illegal fireworks they had previously confiscated.

Sam

**Sam** is a cat, and a rare example of a non-human familiar. He appears in *What We Do in the Shadows* (TV series). No one knows much about Sam or his vampire/possibly owner. But he is well liked among the human familiars.

## Biography

Guillermo was introduced to Sam, the familiar of an unknown vampire, by Colby in the familiars’ room of The Sassy Cat Club in Manhattan. As Colby left, Sam was seen urinating in one of the buckets being used as a toilet.

The following year, an apparent newly-turned vampire named Celeste took on multiple familiars at once, including Sam and eventually Guillermo, and invited them to live in her luxury Staten Island apartment while her former master Houston was away. Sam was very useful and popular with the group, supposedly laying out a table of snacks before Guillermo arrived. However, Houston surprised Celeste by coming back early, forcing Celeste to admit she was only pretending to be a vampire as Houston and her friends went on a rampage, eating the familiars. Celeste begged Guillermo to save Sam during the attack. They escaped the carnage, Guillermo shielding him with what appeared a blanket and let him go on the streets once they were safe. It is likely that they were the only two familiars to survive the incident.

Vampire hunters

**Vampire hunters** are humans or half-vampires who actively find and kill vampires. They will often wear crucifixes for their own protection and kill vampires using wooden stakes, crossbows or holy water.

It has been speculated that vampire hunting skill can be a genetic trait, as Guillermo, a likely descent of Abraham Van Helsing, has demonstrated natural skill at fighting off aggressive vampires.

## Known vampire hunters

* An unnamed vampire hunter who killed Petyr with sunlight, but was accidentally killed himself in the attack.
* Wesley, a half-vampire member of the Vampiric Council, is described as being a "vampire killer", making him a controversial choice for a Council member.
* Van Helsing, a legendary vampire hunter of which Guillermo is a descendant of.
* The Mosquito Collectors of the Tri-State Area, an amateur vampire hunting group who sought to avenge the turning of Jenna by raiding the house of the Hustle Dynasty vampires.
* Guillermo de la Cruz, a descendant of Van Helsing. He previously served as Nandor's familiar and now utilizes his talents to protect the vampire household under his charge. He has killed numerous vampires, accidentally in the case of Ludwig, a member of the Staten Island vampiric council, and Carol, a member of Simon the Devious's crew, and Gorgo the Murderer. Guillermo also intentionally killed every vampire attending the Nouveau Théâtre des Vampires, with the exception of his masters and Vladislav, who fled once he began his attack, and numerous vampire assassins.
* Guillermo's family (maternal), including his cousin Miguel, aunt Valeria, mother Silvia, and grandmother Maite.

Pauline Ivanovich

## Pauline

**Pauline Ivanovich**, also known as **The Beast**, is a vampire. She appeared in *What We Do in the Shadows* (film).

## Biography

### What We Do in the Shadows

Pauline was the ex-girlfriend of Vladislav. While they dated, the two got into a fight that resulted in Vladislav being impaled on a lamppost. He was traumatised by the incident and his powers were permanently affected; he could no longer change his face when transforming into an animal, and his hypnosis abilities weakened. Vladislav referred to Pauline as ‘The Beast’, despite her normal appearance. She resented this nickname and called him ‘Arsehole’ in response.

When Pauline was announced as the guest of honour at the Unholy Masquerade, Vladislav, who was hoping to receive the honour, flew into a rage, aged rapidly and refused to attend.

Pauline attended the event with her new boyfriend Julian. Word spread around the ball that one of guests, Stu, was a human. Pauline cornered Stu and became especially interested in eating him when she assumed he was a virgin after hearing his job description. Vladislav suddenly arrived, back to his normal appearance, and defended Stu. Vladislav and Julian fought until Stu impaled Julian with a wooden stake. Vladislav, Stu and their friends fled the scene.

Pauline and Vladislav got back together again shortly afterwards, only to continue fighting.

Pine Barrens

"**Pine Barrens**" is the seventh episode of the fourth season of *What We Do in the Shadows*. It aired on August 16, 2022.

## Synopsis

Nandor and Laszlo air out their differences on a hunting trip at an isolated cabin, Nadja has a girls' night, and Guillermo reconnects with his family for the first time in twelve years.

## Plot Summary

Sean invites Laszlo, Nandor, and Baby Colin to join him for a “guys’ weekend” at his hunting cabin in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Unfortunately, this is complicated by the fact that Nandor and Laszlo's bickering has escalated over the course of the weekend. Laszlo shoots Nandor through the hand, and the gunshots wake Sean, who points out that Colin has gone missing. Nandor and Laszlo go into the woods to find him playing on his tablet, at the same time managing to reconcile, admitting that they’ve both missed spending time together. While they're gone, Sean is attacked by the Jersey Devil, but Colin distracts it by playing Bon Jovi, allowing Laszlo and Nandor to kill it.

Meanwhile, Nadja and Guillermo, who are both unaware that they are not alone in the house, had both planned to spend the weekend in their own ways: Nadja has a girls’ night with Doll Nadja, Marwa, and The Guide, while Guillermo invites his family over for dinner to celebrate his grandmother's birthday. When Nadja walks down and interrupts their dinner, she and Guillermo pretend to be a couple to prevent his family from discovering that she is a vampire, but being in close proximity with her causes Guillermo's vampire hunter relatives to grow agitated until eventually they chase Nadja out of the room with stakes. Guillermo puts himself between Nadja and his family, and admits that he works for Nadja and the rest of the vampires in the house, and hopes to become one himself one day. He also admits that Nadja is not his girlfriend, and that he's gay. While his family is supportive of his sexuality, they are not so accepting of Nadja's vampirism, though she is convinced by Guillermo to spare their lives and selectively hypnotize them to forget about everything aside from Guillermo coming out.

Yōkai

**Yōkai** are vengeful spirits or demons of Japanese folklore. They are shapeshifters that can take the forms of humans, animals or inanimate objects.

## History

Wellington Police Paranormal Unit officers O’Leary and Minogue were sent to the Lower Hutt region to investigate reports from the nearby flats of possible ghost sightings. When they arrived, all they found was a white plastic bag floating in the wind. The officers took the bag to the station, where Sergeant Maaka speculated that it may be a yōkai. He stored the bag in his filing cabinet for safekeeping.

That night, the bag escaped from the cabinet and attacked Maaka by attaching itself to his face. After he was able to pull off the bag and stuff it into a bin, he realised it really was a yōkai.

The She Wolf of Kurimarama Street

*For the eponymous character, see Sheena.*

"**The She Wolf of Kurimarama Street**" is the fourth episode of *Wellington Paranormal*. It aired on 1 August 2018.

## Synopsis

Responding to a callout from a freaked out pizza delivery guy who was attacked by a big dog wearing jeans, Minogue and O'Leary soon discover that a werewolf is on the loose in Lower Hutt.

## Plot Summary

O’Leary and Minogue investigate a pizza delivery man’s scooter getting heavily damaged along with his pizzas being stolen in Kumimarara Street. The man claims that the culprit was a ‘dog wearing jeans’. The officers then interview a former ‘cat lady’ who claims her cats were taken by the dogs of a gang leader living nearby. The gang leader however says that three of his five dogs were also taken, one of which was removed from his van, now bearing heavy scratch marks. As the police interview him, his other two dogs disappear.

While the officers take a break in the police car, several people run past in terror and loud noises are heard. They go out to investigate and find other people saying they are fleeing a werewolf. They briefly spot one, but when they catch up with it, they only find a confused drunk woman, Sheena, lying on the ground with a lot of scratches. The officers take her in.

In the interrogation room, Sheena only recalls that her torn shorts used to be jeans and she remembers huge claws in front of her face. Sergeant Maaka concludes that because her scratches were obviously caused by twigs and many dogs have been photographed wearing jeans on the internet, she is not a werewolf and should be taken home. However as O’Leary and Minogue are driving Sheena home, Maaka calls them realising she is a werewolf whose transformations were brief due to periodic cloud cover over the moon. As the moon is exposed, Sheena transforms and the officers evacuate the car. They search for her as she goes from werewolf to human form repeatedly, and Minogue eventually lures her with a sausage roll.

The officers handcuff and interview Sheena in her house, accusing her of being a werewolf. Realising that she probably gained lycanthropy due to her werewolf ex-boyfriend Dion, she breaks apart her handcuffs and storms into his house. Dion and Sheena have a loud argument, accusing each other of cheating, and start making out. Realising that there is nothing they can do, O’Leary and Minogue leave the house as the couple begin fighting.

Unholy Masquerade

The **Unholy Masquerade** is a secretive celebratory event that occurs every few years in New Zealand. The months leading up to the 2014 event was the focus for the documentary *What We Do in the Shadows*.

The event is hosted by the Wellington Vampire Association, in conjunction with The Lower Hutt Vampire/Witch Club and the Karori Zombie Society. The event is open to local undead creatures such as vampires, witches, demons, banshees and zombies. Guests are allowed to bring plus ones, but humans are strictly forbidden.

Party dress or costumes are encouraged, but as Viago found, dressing as nuns or vampire hunters such as Blade is discouraged due to bad taste. Events typically consist of music, dancing, socialising, humans being given as raffle prizes and a speech from the Guest of Honor.

## *What We Do in the Shadows*

The 2014 event was held in the Cathedral of Despair (which was actually the headquarters for Victoria Bowling Club) on June 6th, starting at 6pm. Vladislav hoped to be named as the Guest of Honor, but was horrified to learn that the guest was actually going to be his ex-girlfriend, "The Beast", formally known as Pauline Ivanovich. Vladislav briefly aged rapidly from the stress and refused to attend.

Viago and Deacon left without him, where they met Nick, who brought Stu as his plus one, and Jackie, who had just been turned into a vampire by Nick, much to Deacon's annoyance. Word quickly spread around the ball that Stu was actually human, leading Pauline and her boyfriend, Julian, to suspect that he was a vampire hunter. The guests cornered and interrogated Stu until Vladislav suddenly arrived to defend him. He and Julian fought until Stu impaled the latter with a large wooden spike. The roommates, along with Nick and Stu, made a hasty exit.

Manhattan

**Manhattan** is the most densely populated borough of New York City. It has a very high vampire population, led by Simon the Devious.

## History

When the vampires Simon the Devious, Laszlo Cravensworth and Nadja left Europe for the USA, Simon decided stop off at Manhattan and the other two chose to reside in Staten Island. Simon climbed his way up to power and became the leader of all the vampires in Manhattan at the relatively young age of 107, while Laszlo and Nadja made little impact on Staten Island. Simon also founded a very successful vampire nightclub, The Sassy Cat Club.

In 2019, Laszlo, Nadja and their roommates Nandor and Colin Robinson paid Simon's club a visit for the first time in decades to propose forming an alliance with his vampires. Simon initially agreed to join forces, on the condition that Laszlo hand over his witch skin hat, not realising it was cursed. Laszlo refused, but Simon's gang, The Leather Skins, intimidated him into giving it up. Simon went back on his word and kicked the vampires out of the club. As they left, the cursed hat caused Simon to accidentally blow up the club with a flaming arrow.

Nandor later flew over Manhattan while carrying his familiar Guillermo, only to accidentally drop him on a food truck.

The Curse

"**The Curse**" is the fourth episode of the second season of *What We Do in the Shadows*. It aired on April 29, 2020.

## Synopsis

While the vampires fear they've been electronically cursed, Guillermo tries to thwart a deadly threat to his masters.

## Plot Summary

Nandor decides to check his emails for the first time in over 10 years. Guillermo sets up a laptop for him and leaves for his second meeting of the Mosquito Collectors of the Tri-State Area in order to infiltrate the group. Nandor finds an old chain email saying that he has been cursed by “Bloody Mary” and that he must pass on the email to ten more people in order to lift the curse. Panicking, he calls over Laszlo and Nadja, who read the email and believe that the curse has spread to them.

At the meeting, the members discuss the house which Shanice believes to be one of the last known locations of Jenna and leave in a van rented by Derek’s mother to slay the residents inside. Believing the house to be his residence, Guillermo calls home in a hushed voice warning them that they will be killed. The vampires assume Guillermo’s voice is that of Bloody Mary and become even more worried.

The club arrive at the house, which turns out to be a completely different home, much to Guillermo’s relief. The group sneak in, split up and discover multiple sleeping residents, who suddenly awaken and reveal themselves to be vampires. Guillermo fights them off, killing several of them, and rescues Shanice, Claude and Tonya, but is unable to save Derek, who is taken by the vampires. The group drive away in the van in a state of shock.

Meanwhile, Nandor, Nadja and Laszlo work frantically to try and find ten email addresses. They eventually receive enough with the help of Colin Robinson, who bores them deeply in the process. They send the email to the ten addresses and hear a knock at the door, terrifying them. Realising that it is only Guillermo, the vampires embrace each other as they celebrate the ‘curse’ being lifted.

As morning approaches, Nandor blames Guillermo for his ordeal as he supplied the laptop, but asks him to stay by his coffin for a while in case anyone tries to kill him.
