The Grey Werewolf is a minor antagonist in the 2004 dark fantasy horror action film Van Helsing. It was a feral servant of Count Dracula and was responsible for infecting Prince Velkan Valerious with lycanthropy.
At some point, the Grey Werewolf was infected and had to serve Dracula since it was permanently stuck in wolf form. Count Dracula sent the Wolf Man after the Valerious siblings and their crew to eliminate them as they were a threat to his plans. Velkan used himself as bait in order to lure the Grey Werewolf into a trap. As the Wolf Man was caught in a cage, the other hunters began firing at it and Velkan lost his pistol which contained the silver bullets that would end the beast's life. While the trap succeeded despite some difficulties, gunfire from the hunters inadvertently set it free from the cage.
After busting out, the Wolf Man set its sights on Princess Anna Valerious and chased her through the woods. As Anna ran to the edge of the cliff, the Grey Werewolf leaped up into the air towards the Princess, but Velkan appeared last minute and pushed her out of the way and shot the Wolf Man with a silver bullet. However, the Grey Werewolf managed to tackle Velkan with both plummeting off the cliff and into the river. The Wolf Man died and was freed of its curse but it passed it onto Velkan by biting him and turned the latter into another Werewolf.
