Teen Wolf's Scott McCall is primed to take on one of Beacon Hills' biggest threats to date.

'Teen Wolf' Season 5: Lydia Gets A Banshee Mentor, An Eichen House Ally Revealed?

When we say biggest, we don't mean worst. We mean shear size, although there is little doubt that "The Beast" will prove to be one of the series' most dangerous adversaries yet. Introduced in the Dread Doctor's cryptic mural, "La Bête" will be one massive creature.

"The beast is...I don't know what we're aloud to tell you. It's [physically] huge. The Beast is a massive monster, way bigger [than the berserker]," Tyler Posey (Scott) in formed Entertainment Weekly at New York Comic Con. "He's bigger than a berserker [but] not quite King Kong."

Unfortunately, Posey couldn't say much more on the subject. As of early October, the MTV series had only filmed five episodes for season 5B. Posey's knowledge of The Beast was limited as his character had yet to film with the baddie.

"It's ominous. It's scary. There's not much we can say, partly because we don't really know a lot about it as actors," Posey teased.

Unlike Scott, Theo (Cody Christian) and Liam (Dylan Sprayberry) will have a run in with The Beast before or during episode 5. From the way Christian and Sprayberry talked, the chimera and the beta may be together when this encounter occurs.
