A mental hospital, violent inmates -- and werewolves? Prepare for Welcome to Hoxford, the latest comic from Ben Templesmith, creator of 30 Days of Night. In it, a psychiatrist discovers that patients are transferred in, but never out. Even more disturbingly, it's not the inmates who are in charge of the asylum -- werewolves run the facility. Who to turn to when the psychiatrist finds herself trapped in?

Movie rights for the IDW comic were just optioned by 1492 Entertainment, the production company of Chris Columbus, who directed the first two Harry Potter movies and produced the comic-to-movie adaption of The Fantastic Four.
