Werewolves served as their primary antagonists throughout the story and this inclusion carried through to the series as well. In Season 1 there was an episode titled \u201cWerewolf Feud\u201d in which tensions flare after a werewolf gets caught in a bear-trap planted in the vampires\u2019 backyard. But the creatures often found in horror don\u2019t end with just vampires and werewolves in the series, there\u2019s also been the inclusion of witches and zombies, expanding this world first established in the film.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hash=\"3\">\n<div> <picture><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"What We Do in the Shadows Natasia Demetriou\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/what-we-do-in-the-shadows-natasia-demetriou-1014x570.jpg\"><\/img><\/picture><\/div>\n<p><span>Byron Cohen \/ \u00a9FX \/ Courtesy Everett Collection<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Feisty_Females\"><\/span>Feisty Females<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s no hiding that the 2014 film is essentially a boys club apart from Deacon\u2019s (Brugh) familiar Jackie (Jackie Van Beek). In the show, the roommate mix includes Nadja (Demetriou) who keeps things interesting among her male counterparts \u2014 one of which is Berry\u2019s Laszlo who is Nadja\u2019s husband. Season 1 also included Beanie Feldstein as Jenna, a human whose life is changed when she encounters the Staten Island clan. There\u2019s definitely room for more feisty females, but Nadja has plenty of bite to keep viewers laughing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hash=\"4\">\n<div> <picture><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"What We Do in the Shadows Mark Proksch\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/what-we-do-in-the-shadows-colin-robinson-mark-proksch-1014x570.jpg\"><\/img><\/picture><\/div>\n<p><span>John P.

Unlike his roommates, Colin can exist in daylight.

While this was depicted in the relationship between Jackie and Deacon in the film, the show takes things up a notch with the relationship between Nandor (Novak) and Guillermo (Guill\u00e9n). As the human familiar of Nandor, Guillermo does everything his master asks of him including the disposal of bodies, cleaning the house and searching for virgins that Nandor can feast on. When Guillermo discovers he has Van Helsing blood in Season 1 though, it makes for an interesting dilemma as fans see him reconsider his lifestyle in Season 2. The series also shares glimpses of other familiars, revealing just how common the practice is in the <em>Shadows<\/em> universe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hash=\"6\">\n<div> <picture><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"What We Do in the Shadows Nandor Guillermo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/what-we-do-in-the-shadows-nandor-guillermo-1014x570.jpg\"><\/img><\/picture><\/div>\n<p><span>John P.

Part of the show\u2019s fun is that Nadja, Laszlo and Nandor stick out like sore thumbs especially when they\u2019re next to Guillermo and Colin who are constantly present in society. Some particularly funny moments in the series have included Nandor\u2019s visit down the craft aisle in a grocery store as well as the vamps\u2019 introduction to email chain spam in Season 2. Essentially anytime these roommates are forced to fit into the human world, like attending a neighbor\u2019s Super Bowl party or running a dive bar, it\u2019s comedy gold.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hash=\"7\">\n<div> <picture><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"What We Do in the Shadows Nick Kroll\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/what-we-do-in-the-shadows-nick-kroll-1014x570.jpg\"><\/img><\/picture><\/div>\n<p><span>Russ Martin \/ \u00a9FX \/ Courtesy Everett Collection<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Star_Power\"><\/span>Star Power<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The film featured a cast that weren\u2019t widely known for the most part in 2014, but in the series, guest stars have provided an A-list boost for <em>What We Do in the Shadows<\/em>. In Season 1, a brush with the vampire council brought names like Evan Rachel Wood, Tilda Swinton, Danny Trejo, Dave Bautista, Kristen Schaal and more into the vampires\u2019 orbit as well as Waititi, Celement and Brugh who reprised their roles from the film. Meanwhile, other famous faces who have dropped by <em>Shadows<\/em> include Mark Hamill, Craig Robinson, Nick Kroll, Vanessa Bayer and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hash=\"8\">\n<div> <picture><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"What We Do in the Shadows Season 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/what-we-do-in-the-shadows-vladislav-deacon-viago-1014x570.jpg\"><\/img><\/picture><\/div>\n<p><span>Russ Martin \/ \u00a9FX \/ Courtesy Everett Collection<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nods_to_the_Original\"><\/span>Nods to the Original<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to improve upon near-perfection when it comes to comedy, but <em>Shadows<\/em> has managed to do so while paying homage to the source material from which it is based.
