Howling
Howling is a vocal form of animal communication seen in most canines, particularly wolves, coyotes, foxes, and dogs, as well as cats and some species of monkeys. Howls are generally lengthy sustained sounds, loud and audible over long distances, often with some variation in pitch over the length of the sound. Howling is generally used by animals that engage in this behavior to signal their positions to one another, to call the pack to assemble, or to note their territory. The behavior is occasionally copied by humans, and has been noted to have varying degrees of significance in human culture. In canines The long-distance howling of wolves and coyotes is one way in which canines communicate. Long-distance contact calls are common in Canidae, typically in the form of either barks (termed "pulse trains") or howls (termed "long acoustic streams"). Wolves howl to assemble the pack usually before and after hunts, to pass on an alarm particularly at a den site, to locate each o ...

The Howling (franchise)
''The Howling'' is an American werewolf-themed horror media franchise that includes three novels and eight films. The series began with the 1977 horror novel ''The Howling'' by Gary Brandner, which was in 1981 adapted into the film of the same name, directed by Joe Dante. Novels The novels were authored by American horror writer Gary Phil Brandner (1930–2013). The first book in the series was loosely adapted as a motion picture in 1981. Brandner's second and third ''Howling'' novels, published in 1979 and 1985, respectively, have no connection to the film series, though he was involved in writing the screenplay for the second ''Howling'' film, ''Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf''.

The Howling
''The Howling'' is a 1977 horror novel by Gary Brandner. It was the inspiration for the movie ''The Howling'' (1981), although the plot of the movie was only vaguely similar to that of the book. Brandner published two sequels to the novel, '' The Howling II'' in 1979 (later republished as ''Return of the Howling'') and '' The Howling III: Echoes'' in 1985. Neither sequel was used as the basis for any of the subsequent Howling films. However, minor elements from '' The Howling III: Echoes'' novel appear in the film '' Howling VI: The Freaks''. The fourth film of the series, '' Howling IV: The Original Nightmare'' (1988), is the closest adaptation of Brandner's original 1977 novel, though even it differs in parts. Plot When middle-class wife Karyn Beatty is attacked and raped in her Los Angeles home, she suffers a miscarriage and a nervous breakdown. She and her husband, Roy, leave the city and go to stay in the secluded California mountain village of Drago while Karyn recupera ...

Cold Comfort Farm
''Cold Comfort Farm'' is a comic novel by English author Stella Gibbons, published in 1932. It parodies the romanticised, sometimes doom-laden accounts of rural life popular at the time, by writers such as Mary Webb. Plot summary Following the death of her parents, the book's heroine, Flora Poste, finds she is possessed "of every art and grace save that of earning her own living". She decides to take advantage of the fact that "no limits are set, either by society or one's own conscience, to the amount one may impose on one's relatives", and settles on visiting her distant relatives at the isolated Cold Comfort Farm in the fictional village of Howling in Sussex. The inhabitants of the farm – Aunt Ada Doom, the Starkadders, and their extended family and workers – feel obliged to take her in to atone for an unspecified wrong once done to her father. As is typical in a certain genre of romantic 19th-century and early 20th-century literature, each of the farm's inhabitants ...

Howling (The Saints Album)
''Howling'' is an album by the Australian band the Saints. The album was their first release after an eight-year recording hiatus. Chris Bailey chose to lose the big production of the 1980s records to make an album that was more akin to the early Saints punk sound. Bailey again employed a new line-up for the band. The album was released in 1996 in Australia and in 1997 everywhere else in the world. Critical reception The ''Los Angeles Times'' called ''Howling'' "a tuneful, emotionally intense album in which aileys equally at home playing elegantly crafted folk-rock ballads, bluesy, noir-ish extrapolations from Howlin' Wolf and, on 'Shadows', garage-rock that, if it's possible, sounds even more cheaply and haphazardly recorded than the Saints' debut album." ''The Sydney Morning Herald'' determined that "the tone is set by the title track, a blunt portrayal of animal lust with its opening invective, driving backbeat and Bailey's tortured vocals, recorded in what sounds as if it is ...
