Teen Wolf: The Dread Doctors

Teen Wolf Season 5 story arc is on a group of antagonists known as "The Dread Doctors". These individuals are known as the Surgeon, Pathologist, and Geneticists individually. The are introduced slowly into the season, and it is found out that they are responsible for the number of knew creatures that are attacking the city of Beacon Hills. They are performing experiments on various teens making them into chimera, a term they are using to described individuals who have been enhanced with abilities from supernatural beings. They have created a number of such hybrids including were-coyote, were-jaguar, wendigo, etc. Some of these beings have more than one set of powers. Most though end up rejecting their augmentations as a result of mercury poisoning. The reason for these chimera is to find a suitable host that would resurrect "Le Bete du Gevadun".

As this is found to be their main goal, it is confirmed at the end of the season that the Le Bete is none other than Sebastian Valet. Sebastian Valet became a werewolf around the 1760s in Canada, and when he traveled back to France he menaced the countryside. Eventually he was killed by his sister, Marie-Jeanne and Henri Argent. His companion Marcel made it his life long quest to resurrect his friend, becoming an expert in magic and science. He became the Dread Doctor known as the Surgeon.

What I find intriguing that the theme of the Dread Doctors are reminiscent of "Greys". When they are first introduced, it happens at night during a horrible nightmare. Their first known victim describes this as a "Night Terror", something usually said about abduction. Furthermore, these beings do abduct their victims and take them to a surgical theater aka their lair and perform experiments, additional monitoring, or maintenance on there creations. Their abductees are taken without notice and inexplicably placed back.

There appearance is considered steampunkish, but they are humanoids with mask with large googles. They make clacking noises, possible due to the mechanisms that sustain them. When they do talk it is either through some sort of psychic communication or vocal modulation. Furthermore they can induce hallucination in individual they target, having them perceive situations other than what they really are or inducing a specific illusion. This can be used to paralyze an individual in their own minds, believing they are incapacitated or locked in a state of waiting. It also can render them "invisible" or more broadcasting a "We are not here" vibe. It is explained that they use electro-magnetic frequencies to induce the hallucinations, cause memory lapses, avoid detection, and a number of other abilities. To me the manner in which they operate and appear remind me of aliens? Hidden message or this a cue to what may have been a story involving were-wolves versus greys? It is just odd that Chimeras are basically Hybrids....
