'Teen Wolf' Season 5B Spoilers: Will Tyler Posey's Scott McCall Face "New Beast" In Premiere?

MTV is just hours away from the season 5B premiere of Teen Wolf  in 2016. In the next episode of Season 5 of Teen Wolf, will Scott McCall (Tyler Posey) and Stiles Stilinski (Dylan O'Brien) be able to handle themselves against a terrifying "new beast?"

As we previously mentioned, Scott McCall (Posey) was just an average high school student when his life was suddenly altered after being bitten by a werewolf. In the upcoming fifth season, Scott and his pack will face a dangerous new threat known only as "The Doctors." Growing up in this supernatural world, the teens are close to becoming adults as they head off into their senior year.

The mid-season finale ended on a dark cliffhanger, which left fans wanting more from the second half of Season 5. Creator/showrunner Jeff Davis dished on the cliffhanger during New York Comic Con. Now that the McCall pack don't trust each other, more problems arise with Dread Doctors at large and terrifying hell beast on its way.

Davis states, "The end of Episode 20 will be a very big high note. It will be Scott and his pack back together. We wanted to end on a down note [with 5a]. This was our kind of like Empire Strikes Back ending. We were very clear about wanting to have a real midpoint low in the middle of this season."

In an interview with TV Guide, Holland Roden (Lydia Martin) teases that there will be a new monster with a very different aesthetic, something new that fans haven't seen in the past.

Roden teases, "There is a special effect [for this new creature] that has never been seen on Teen Wolf before. We've had a lot of creatures, a lot of ears, blood, teeth and fur. We've had straps, leather, metal and bones, but this is different. You have not seen this effect yet."

Teen Wolf's Season 5B premieres January 5 at 9 pm on MTV.
