History
The Werewolf of Fever Swamp
Will Blake was a twelve-year-old boy living in Fever Swamp who, at some point prior to the events of the book, became cursed with lycanthropy. While in the form of a werewolf, Will terrorized Fever Swamp, preying on local animals. It's implied at one point that he killed a hunter he had been friends with. When the Tucker family moved into Fever Swamp, Will befriended their youngest son, Grady.
When a local girl, Cassie, claimed to Grady that a werewolf existed in Fever Swamp, Will was quick to deny its existence. After the Tucker family noticed dead animals turning up at the swamp, including several swamp deer, Grady's new pet dog Wolf was blamed for the killings, convincing Grady's father that he needed to be put down. However, Grady, unwilling to let Wolf be killed, set him free. Later on, at night, Grady ventures into the woods looking for Wolf, where he met Will. As the two boys searched for Wolf, Will transformed into a werewolf under the full moon, causing Grady to realize that he was the Werewolf of Fever Swamp. Will attacked and bit Grady, but Wolf returned and fought Will off, forcing him to flee.
Will vanished after the incident, leaving his fate uncertain. However, with the curse having been passed on to Grady, Grady became the new Werewolf of Fever Swamp, with Wolf as his companion.
In the episode of the TV show, not too much is changed about Will except tha it's stated he killed the Swamp Hermit's wife and children at one point upon transforming. He is also shown to believe in werewolves and accuses the Hermit of being one, unlike in the book where he openly denies their existence. After transforming, he attacks Grady's mother and sister and later him. He is caught by the Swamp Hermit but manages to kill hima nd proceeds in attacking Grady. He is knocked by into the quick sand by Grady's dog and sinks- later in the episode, his skeleton resurfaces. It's unknown as to whether or not he bit Grady as in the book, given Grady howls at the moon, but doesn't transform, at the end of the episode.
