Tropes

 * Jeanette the Monster Slayer is entirely focused on Jeanette Helsing.

 * Some episodes of the TV series focus on the supporting characters.

 * A Lizard Named "Liz": Starting from Collin and Howler: Speedin' and Howlin', George owned a lizard that is indeed named Liz.
 * Absurd Phobia: Lex is shown to have a fear of cucumbers. According to Daniel, it was supposed to be a reference of how cats are scared of cucumbers because they think they're some kind of snake.
 * Accidental Pervert: in The Legend of the Red Woman, Howler once accidentally entered in Bella's bedroom, spotting her in underwear, leading to her screaming in shock and slapping him.

 * Ambiguously Bi: TBD
 * Ambiguously Brown: Wylda is supposedly African-American, yet she has green skin.
 * Ambiguously Evil:
 * Considering that her parents' death by a monster was the reason she started hunting them, it's unclear if Jeanette is indeed evil or just wants to save people from monsters that kill.
 * It's unclear what side Roy is, despite being aligned with Jeanette. But due to his obsession with conspiracy theories, it would be likely that if he were to discover what Jeanette was planning, he would be on her side and turn against Howler.

 * Animated Adaption: The 2019 cartoon.

 * Baseball Episode: Howler and Jeanette Helsing formed baseball teams against each other in Homerun.
 * Beware the Nice Ones:
 * Howler is usually well-meaning and friendly, but he can be ticked whenever someone pushes him too far.

 * Roy is this.
 * Continuity Reboot: The 2019 film somewhat counts as one, since it's a retelling on how Howler came to be with a few differences.
 * Crazy Jealous Guy: Howler was this in Adrian Dusk, as he was jealous of Bella hanging out with Adrian more than him and started to believe Bella wants to date him instead.
 * Crossover: This franchise currently had three: A comic series with Good Ol' Magic, a DTV film with Collin the Speedy Boy and a TV episode with The Mysterious Mysteries of Mystery Manor as part of the latter's arc.

However, unlike them, they aren't antagonistic and they are considered pretty cute as their crush isn't that obsessive.

 * Mae Whitman (Lacey) was an exception since she was 19 when the first game was launched. However, as the years passed, she felt into this as well.
 * Bella is a cross between this and Playing Gertrude. Her voice actress Jennifer Hale was 35 by the time Howler was launched and her character is physically 21. However, since she's a vampire, she's actually 100+ years old.
 * Executive Meddling:
 * It's believed that Howler: Ultimate Werewolf was created to please older audiences as the studio executives believed that the TBD.
 * The Howler TV series was originally planned to be a Netflix original until the Warner Bros. executives thought it would be better for it to air on a basic cable channel (Cartoon Network) for better visibility, since not everyone has access to streaming platforms (such as Netflix, Amazon Prime or Hulu).

 * Playing Against Type:
 * Kat Cressida, better known for voicing the overenthusiastic and ditzy Dee Dee from Dexter's Laboratory, ends up voicing Georgia, who, unlike Dee Dee, is way smarter and is often annoyed by her brother's immaturity.
 * Doug Lawrence, who is known for voicing Sheldon Plankton from SpongeBob SquarePants and Filburt Turtle from Rocko's Modern Life, voices Greg, who, unlike them, is a macho man wannabe and shows a lot more interest in finding a love interest.
 * Scarlett Johansson and Angelina Jolie, who are strongly associated to the roles of action heroines like Black Widow in Scarlett's case and Lara Croft in Angelina's case, end up voicing Bella (who is the nice girl) and Jeanette (who is the film's main antagonist) for the movie.
 * Rule 34 - Creator Reactions: a user on Twitter once asked him about Rule 34 pictures with Howler characters, and Daniel did reply, saying, "Well, in all honesty, I knew stuff like this would happen to my game series. I did stumble across all of these "sexy" pictures of Howler and Bella on the web, and one fan even sent me a picture of the Zombie Duo... having fun while licking each other's tongues. Nuff said."
 * The same user replied with, asking what if he told him that Stella McDonnell was one of those people who made those Howler/Bella pictures.

 * Technology Marches On: TBD
 * What Could Have Been:
 * When first announced, the Howler TV series was originally gonna air on Netflix. However, for an unknown reason, the idea of putting it on Netflix was scrapped and the show instead aired on Cartoon Network.

 * The series would eventually be available for streaming on Hulu and later on HBO Max.
 * When he first started working on the first game, Daniel Wright originally had an idea for Jeffrey/Howler to have a pet similar to Collin with Cooper and Tommy, Kitrina with Terry, Charlotte with Tux and Bailey with Battie. However, as time passed, Daniel wanted to make his series different from the rest, so he scrapped the idea of Howler having a pet.
 * Indirectly, that still happened with Lex and Liz. However, they're George's pets instead of Howler's.
 * While Howler 6 was in production, one of the developers had an idea for a succubus character, but Daniel was unsure about having one in a kids' series, therefore it was at first rejected. However, after a few talks with Stella McDonnell, Daniel found a way to make her appropriate for the series by having Sasha be less like a slut with more modest clothing.
 * Daniel jokingly said about having Jeanette redeem sometime in the future. Though, it isn't confirmed whether it's actually true or not.
 * Written by Cast Member: Doug Lawrence did write episodes for the Howler TV series.
 * Written by Cast Member: Doug Lawrence did write episodes for the Howler TV series.

YMMV

 * Abandon Shipping: Howler/Jeanette shippers started shipping Jeanette/Roy since Roy's introduction in JtMS.
 * Acceptable Targets: TBD
 * Accidental Innuendo: Jeanette ends up telling Howler how good he fights in a rather unintentional flirtatious way, which is thought to be the main reason why some people ship Howler with Jeanette.
 * Alternative Character Interpretation: Is George smarter than he appears to be?
 * Americans Hate Tingle:
 * People in the Arab World have shown a hatred towards the character, Greg, ironically despite some of those countries' controversial laws about women's rights.
 * Frank was not well-liked by people from some European countries like the United Kingdom, France and Germany due to his disorder being played for laughs. Same with Zach and Zoey since their stupidity was played for laughs.
 * Awesome Art: The game series was praised for its Western art style.
 * Base-Breaking Character:
 * While most fans adore George, there are some fans who find him straight-up annoying.
 * Georgia has some Howler fans who dislike her due to her snarky behavior, with a few going far as negatively comparing her to Mandy.
 * Similarly to George, while fans like Frank, some find him annoying and that the use of his disorder for comedy is rather offensive for some.
 * While Greg is liked by fans, many female SJWs hated him due to his personality, being often accused of being a misogynist and a potential sex offender.
 * Daniel replied those accusations by saying that, much like Johnny Bravo (owned by Cartoon Network, itself also owned by Warner Bros.), Greg is supposed to be an exaggerated parody of the macho stereotype and he wouldn't go that far as he knows when to give up.
 * Zach and Zoey have been shown to be disliked by a few fans due to the fact that they are rather too annoying and TBD.
 * The Naga has been shown to be disliked by some fans due to him either being annoying, "overrated", or even both, with some of those preferring that they had more focus on other villains such as Jeanette.
 * Even Howler isn't safe from this. He has shown to be disliked by some fans due to the fact that he's rather too soft while as a human and TBD.
 * Best Known for the Fanservice: Some non-fans remember the series for its hot-looking characters.
 * Broken Base: Where do we start...
 * Some of the content was criticized for being more over-the-top rather than being serious and sometimes overfocusing in on the TBD.
 * While most fans of the Prime continuity did like Howler: Ultimate Werewolf, some fans didn't due to it being way darker and including content that wouldn't likely appear in the main series such as gruesome violence, vulgar language, and even sexual references and nudity, aside from replacing George and Georgia with a new character, eventually turning to be their mother.
 * Speaking of Howler: Ultimate Werewolf, some insane fans of it hated the episode, Ultimate Darker Dimension, accusing it for mocking it "cruelly".
 * Cargo Ship: Greg x his mirror.
 * Cash Cow Franchise: Howler became this to Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment alongside Collin the Speedy Boy and Good Ol' Magic after it's popularity skyrocketed after the release of the first game, spawning a lot of merchandise, a non-canon spin-off series (Ultimate Werewolf), a TV series, and films (a theatrical and direct-to-video one).
 * Complete Monster: The Cthulhu.
 * Crack Pairing:
 * Howler x Jeanette.
 * Howler x Wylda.
 * Howler x Zoey.
 * Greg x Wylda.
 * Greg x Gwen.
 * Zoey x Gayle.
 * Howler x . Yes, that pairing exists.
 * Since April 2019, the meme community made up a new shipping called Gurga (Gurkha x Naga) as part of a Gurkha meme.
 * Creator Worship: Daniel Wright for this.
 * Creator's Pet: Some fans think that Daniel gives too much focus on more comedic figures like George, Frank, Greg and the Naga while other more serious characters like TBD don't have enough screentime.
 * Crossover Ship: There has been some ships where characters from Howler are shipped with characters outside their franchise.
 * Howler fans do like to ship George with Claire from Eric and Claire, due to their similarities.
 * Howler fans also like shipping George with Rachael Davidson from Me and a Different Dimension due to her personality mirroring the one of his sister, Georgia, and it's often regarded as a good solution to avoid an incestuous pairing with her.
 * It helps that Daniel created both.
 * Few fans ship Howler with Collin the Speedy Boy, though this example is rather controversial due to the former being 20 and the latter being 16. However, they opt to age Collin up and since the age gap isn't that big, it wasn't a big deal to them.
 * Howler/Charlotte. However, just like Howler x Collin, this one was controversial due to Howler being 20 and Charlotte being 16. But again, the age gap isn't that big and it would no longer be an issue when she becomes legal.
 * Bella/.
 * Greg/Kisha the Fierce.
 * Phillip/.
 * Another shipping between a Howler and CTSB character, and a rather ironic one... Lex/Cooper.
 * Jeanette/Dr. Turbo.
 * Designated Hero: Howler is this.
 * Designated Monkey: Naga has been this throughout the series.
 * Designated Villain: Both Jeanette and the Naga were this.

 * Ensemble Dark Horse:
 * Both of the Ghost Twins gained popularity among the fanbase.
 * Greg became a pretty popular character in the franchise's fanbase as well.

 * Gwen became popular after being introduced in the TV series, especially since was already a fan-favorite on Howler: Ultimate Werewolf.
 * Wylda's students, after being introduced in the TV series, have gained a lot of love from fans, to the point where they start to believe that they should have their own spin-off.
 * Courtney gained popularity after being introduced in the TV series. It helps that her chemistry with Phillip is what made fans to think of her as his potential love interest.
 * Wayne, after being introduced in the TV series, became pretty popular, especially to fans with autism.
 * Evil is Sexy: Jeanette (and Sasha before her redemption) fits this trope.
 * Fan-Preferred Couple:
 * Some people tend to prefer Howler x Lacey rather than the official couple Howler x Bella.
 * Apparently, Howler x Gwen is also a thing after she first showed up and due his close bond with the Ghost Twins and they having a TBD chemistry with each other, leading some fans to see him as a good pairing for her, even if he already has Bella, which usually leads into a threesome pairing.
 * This pairing was also inherited from Howler: Ultimate Werewolf.
 * While he has no specific love interest, some fans like to pair Greg with Sasha.
 * Others like to pair him with Akamai.
 * Some even pair Greg with Wylda.
 * Zach x Zoey, as fans prefer them to be more than best friends.
 * Fans love to ship Jeanette and Roy, seeing them as a one true pairing.
 * Fans also loved to have Lex and Leni to be an official couple in fanfics.
 * Some people prefer Kris and/or Kloe x Lex rather than them x Howler, which is ironic considering Lex is a feline and Kris and Kloe are canines.
 * Fans often see Phillip and Courtney as a one true pairing.
 * Fans see Oscar and Tiana as another true pairing.
 * Fandom Rivalry:
 * Some fans in the fanbases of this game and Good Ol' Magic, despite most Howler fans liking GoM and vice versa, had some rivalry with each other.
 * Some fans of The Dinosaur Princess have shown a minor rivalry towards Howler fans as well, mainly due to the fact that it had a crossover with CTSB and GoM, but not TDP.
 * [Veronica, overlapping with Friendly Fandoms]
 * When The Cryptids first premiered, fans of Howler showed rivalry to fans of that show.
 * With The Addams Family. Specifically, the film.
 * [E&C]
 * With its very own spin-off, Howler: Ultimate Werewolf. While most fans liked it, some fans straight up hated it for being way too inappropriate and dark for a family franchise.
 * To make this worse for some insane fans, when Ultimate Darker Dimension released, they accused it for "cruelly mocking" H:UW.
 * Fanfic Fuel: There were things in Howler that led to many questions, from how did Howler's supernatural friends came to be and met each other to why his dad is so obsessed with the supernatural, leaving a lot of fan speculation.
 * Foe Yay Shipping:
 * Some fans jokingly ship Jeanette with either Howler, Bella, or even both of them.
 * A few fans jokingly ship Howler with the Naga.
 * Some fans love shipping George with Little Lucy.

 * Fans of Me and a Different Dimension and The School-tastic Misadventures of Ray the Robot absolutely adored Howler, mainly since it's made by the same creator.
 * Most fans of E&C and Howler are shown to get along with each other, especially those who are fans of George/Claire.
 * Fans of this and SpongeBob SquarePants fans tend to get along due to both franchises being rather similar in comedic tones and both getting rather dark when the plotline calls for it, aside from both of them being meme fountains.
 * Ivie Scott: The Dreamworld fans have shown lots of interest in Howler, especially Stuck in Dream Land, as some are even friends with Howler fans.

 * Most Annoying Sound: George's violent tantrums can be irritating for some fans.
 * Nausea Fuel: In one scene of Collin and Howler: Speedin' and Howlin', when Zoey showed Wylda her "sandwich" (which is actually one of Wylda's chewed-up books), it ends up showing a close-up to the damaged book with what appears to be chewed-up food on it.
 * No Yay:
 * Considering they're just children and the majority of the cast consists of adults, Howler fans prefer to keep the Ghost Twins single.
 * Howler x Kris and/or Kloe because of the bestiality implications.
 * Bella x Shade, given the fact he infected her, as she was his first victim.
 * Mau x Leilani, especially due to his creepy nature and TBD.
 * While both were paired with Howler by some fans, most of them see Phillip and Lacey as just friends.
 * It's pretty obvious why Jeanette/Desire falls into this. Aside from Jeanette being way less menacing than her, there's also strong implications of being pedophilia.
 * One True Threesome:
 * Howler/Bella/Lacey is the most popular one throughout the fandom.
 * Howler/Bella/Gwen, itself influenced by Ultimate Werewolf.

 * Squick: TBD
 * The Scrappy: [character that can be highly annoying the fans are prone to dislike like Scrappy-Doo] is a rather hated character in the Howler community due to being extremely annoying and TBD.
 * The Woobie: Lex, due to all of the things he went through before George found him.
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: TBD
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: TBD
 * Ron the Death Eater: Several fan-fictions do this to characters such as Georgia, Bella, Greg, and even Howler himself.
 * Unintentionally Sympathetic:
 * Jeanette Helsing. In the first Howler game and the movie, it was revealed that the reason why she wants all monsters eradicated was because of what happened to her parents that caused her to despise every single monster.
 * This is also one of the reasons for the crackship with Howler.
 * The Naga also falls on this. Despite his jerkass nature and his frustrated attempts to kidnap Howler and/or his friends, his status as a butt-monkey and his constant abuse makes fans feel rather pitiful for him.
 * What an Idiot!: TBD
 * What Do You Mean, It's for Kids?: While Howler is frankly a video game series for children, there are moments where it can get pretty dark. Howler 4 and Howler 5 are big examples for this.
 * WTH, Casting Agency?: Jeff Bennett voices George, which is rather odd since he is a kid and Jeff usually plays as adults, besides the fact he doesn't sound that much like a kid.
 * X Meets Y: Banjo-Kazooie meets Universal Monsters.
 * WTH, Casting Agency?: Jeff Bennett voices George, which is rather odd since he is a kid and Jeff usually plays as adults, besides the fact he doesn't sound that much like a kid.
 * X Meets Y: Banjo-Kazooie meets Universal Monsters.

WMG
These are fan theories for Howler.
 * Bella Stoker, just like Howler, was once a regular human.
 * Same for the Ghost Twins. It makes sense since in media, ghosts are spirits of dead humans.
 * That or... Gwen was actually a human before becoming a ghost while George and Georgia were born as ghosts.
 * George is smarter than we think he is.
 * The Ghost Twins' father is either deceased, missing or divorced from their mother and moved away.
 * There's also the possibility that their father was an one-night stand or they were conceived through artificial insemination.
 * Howler: Backstories and the TV series episode, Where Did We Come From?, confirmed that George and Georgia were accidents and their father was Gwen's old flame.
 * Greg is a potential sex addict and possibly addicted to pornography as well.
 * The real reason that Wylda is often annoyed at Greg is due to secretly harboring a crush on him. That theory isn't that believable though.
 * Jeanette is actually risking her life to get a chance to reunite with her parents.
 * The real reason why the Naga constantly kidnaps Howler and/or his friends is because he wanted some friends since he is somewhat lonely.
 * A rather weird and not-so believable theory. The real reason is not because he wants friends, but because he has a secret crush on Howler, therefore Naga is gay.
 * Desire is either George and Georgia's long-lost sibling or cousin.
 * Howler takes place in the same universe as Me and a Different Dimension and The School-tastic Misadventures of Ray the Robot.
 * Mayor Vlad Dracula is either Bella's uncle or grandfather.
 * A rather bizarre theory is that the reason why the Ghost Twins' father never appeared is due to him being actually a random male as a result of a rather weird time-travelling incident where he had an one-night stand with their mother.

Funny

 * Frank N. Stein is seen as a comic relief for the video game series. Other characters such as George, Greg, The Naga, Phillip, and the Zombie Duo are seen as comic relieves as well.
 * Every time Kris and Kloe chase after Howler can make fans laugh.
 * When Greg beat the crap out of Frank in Howler 4 after he broke his mirror.

Tear Jerker

 * In Howler 6: The Great War when Sasha started sobbing after being betrayed may bring viewers into tears.
 * Whenever Lex has flashbacks of his old owner, Sally Cox, in the series can bring some viewers to tears.
 * Jeanette the Monster Slayer featured flashbacks showing how horrible Jeanette's childhood was ever since her parents got killed by Desire. No wonder why she wants to eradicate every single monster.

Nightmare Fuel

 * Things got dark in Howler 4: The Dark Virus when Shade's victims got infected and turned into hideous monsters, making it the darkest game in the whole franchise.
 * Howler 5: Night of the Cthulhu has also been rather dark, to the point where it earned a T rating, as it lead fans to argue whether Night of the Cthulhu is truly the darkest or not and whether The Dark Virus should've been the one with the T rating.
 * Some TV series episodes such as Chili Craving and Welcome to Hotel Mysterio! had some rather disturbing moments.
