In fiction[]

Being Human[]

While camping in Upstate New York, Josh and Stu were attacked by a werewolf named Ray, who murdered Stu and spread the curse of lycanthropy onto Josh. Because of this, Josh severed all ties with his family, including Julia. He eventually relocated to Boston, Massachusetts, but his past always had a way of catching up to him. Josh returned to Ithaca to visit his parents at the behest of his sister. He brought his best friend Aidan Waite along with him, but made a point to not disclose the fact that Aidan was a vampire to his family. A rival vampire named Marcus Damnian tracked Josh back to Ithaca and tried to kill his family, but Aidan managed to drive him off. [2]
