Yesterday, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse star Alex Meraz ("Paul") tweeted a video of himself and co-star Booboo Stewart ("Seth Clearwater") on the BBC giving instructions as to how to become a part of the wolfpack, and now he's in a new public service announcement video promoting the protection of wolves in the Pacific Northwest.

"Wolves in Washington state may seem like pure fantasy, but these amazing animals used to run wild across the Olympic Penninsula where the Twilight Saga takes place. Wolves were honored by the Quileute tribe at La Push and thrived for thousands of year throughout the United States, but growing human populations have nearly wiped wolves off the landscape. America's wild wolves are still being shot, poisoned, and trapped by people," he explained, promoting the efforts of Defenders of Wildlife.

The organization has posted an opportunity for Alex Meraz's fans to donate and buy a wolf t-shirt on their site. They've also added crucial information about the ecology of wolves to the site as well, and you can check out their full listing here.

Treasure Entertainment, in association with Highland Myst Entertainment, is aiming to bring together a host of high-profile horror actors in "The Gathering," led by Doug Bradley, Udo Kier and William Sadler.
Producers Mark Heidelberger ("Harsh Times") and Jesse Felsot are in talks with Robert Englund (the original Freddy Krueger) and Linda Blair of "The Exorcist" to join the project, set to go into production late this year or in early 2011.

Jon Keeyes ("American Nightmare") has been tapped to direct from Carl Kirshner's script, set up as a horror anthology containing half a dozen stories.

Thesps signed to appear include Bill Moseley, Danielle Harris, Clint Howard, David Naughton, Billy Drago, Larry Fessenden, Debbie Rochon, Adrienne King, Brian O'Halloran, Lin Shaye, Ellen Sandweiss, Brinke Stevens and Kiowa Gordon from the "Twilight" pics.

The pic's framing story, "The Storytellers," is set on Halloween night with the devil bringing together Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, H.P. Lovecraft and Mary Shelley in a competition to tell the most frightening untold tale with the winner receiving the opportunity to leave purgatory forever.

The anthology's other entries include stories centered on cemeteries, vampires, a possessed dummy, zombies, a runaway daughter and a horror-movie fanatic with a terminal disease.

We saw this one coming a mile away -- turns out the insanely hot new "True Blood" werewolf Joe Manganiello has stirred up some body envy in a different wolfpack: the lupine boys of "The Twilight Saga."

We caught up with Manganiello at Comic-Con this weekend, hitting up EW and SyFy's celebration Saturday night, where he told us he's seeing his furry brethren from the Summit films all over Hollywood and beyond.

"I keep running into the other werewolves," he said, "and they're like, 'Dude, who is your trainer?'"

If you're listening, Taylor Lautner, Alex Meraz, Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier and Kiowa Gordon, Manganiello works with Ron Mathews, the man responsible for Hugh Jackman's ripped bod in the "X-Men" and "X-Men Origins" films.
