| “ | Derek: "Six years ago, my sister and I were at school, and our house caught fire. Eleven people were trapped inside. He was the only survivor." Scott: "What makes you so sure they set the fire?" Derek: "Because they were the only ones that knew about us!" Scott: "Well, then... they had a reason..." Derek: "Like what? You tell me what justifies this. They say they'll only kill an adult, and only with absolute proof, but there were people in my family that were perfectly ordinary in that fire." |

The Hale House was the Hale Family mansion located in the outskirts of Beacon Hills. The house was recently torn down and as of Season 4, the former Hale property is being turned into a housing development. Before its demolition, it was residence to Talia Hale, the Alpha of the Hale Pack and a well-respected leader in the supernatural community. It was also home to future Alphas Laura, Peter, and Derek Hale, and the young Beta Cora Hale. The house was located just outside the Beacon Hills Preserve, making it an ideal location for a family of Werewolves.
Hale House Fire[]
- Main article: Hale House Fire
The Hale House Fire was an event that took place in late 2004 or early 2005, six years prior to the Teen Wolf series premiere. It was a tragic event orchestrated by the Werewolf Hunter Kate Argent and nearly a dozen co-conspirators, and the fire that resulted led to the death of what was originally believed to be eight members of the Hale Family; however, it was later revealed that Cora Hale survived the fire without injury and escaped Beacon Hills before traveling down to South America.
