A blizzard hits at night, first a small dog is killed by the beast, the power goes out and the following morning Finn discovers the body of the elderly man identified by the operator of the hotel as her husband.
Most of the townspeople gather at the hotel, first suspecting Emerson Flint, who lives on the outskirts of town, wants nothing to do with the residents, and is a cranky man. Finn and Cecily question Flint in his house, on the mantelpiece they discover the collar of the little dog, while Dr. Ellis, a resident of the hotel, analyzes a hair she found on the body, which turns out to be werewolf hair. That night, a guest is attacked by the beast in the hotel, but it is able to be scared away, though the guest is shot and loses a few fingers.
Dr. Ellis concludes that a resident of the hotel is responsible for the attacks, who turns into a werewolf, whereupon she commits suicide, apparently out of fear. The rest of the residents accuse each other and are on the verge of shooting at each other, but Finn is able to calm them down and they decide to put away all the weapons and deposit them in a safe room. However, some of the townspeople only seem to have calmed down and start killing each other.
