In 1795, the survivors of a murderous torture orgy at the Ch¡teau de Selligny in France are attacked by rabid wolves. Badly bitten, Guillaume Garou ends up in New Orleans, one hundred years later, as a cannibal necrophile recruited to carry out acts of atrocity and carnage. 100 years later, he emerges as the leader of a lightning addicted gang of graveyard shape-shifters, vying for survival in a world of vampiric sex covens, serial killers, hellfire lunatics, sadistic bounty-hunters, acid-damaged circus freaks, and the resurrected spectres of his former masters.
