"Hybrid Creatures" is the seventh episode of the fifth season of the American mockumentary comedy horror television series What We Do in the Shadows, set in the franchise of the same name. It is the 47th overall episode of the series and was written by executive story editors Jeremy Levick and Rajat Suresh, and directed by co-executive producer Kyle Newacheck. It was released on FX on August 17, 2023.
The series is set in Staten Island, New York City. Like the 2014 film, the series follows the lives of vampires in the city. These consist of three vampires, Nandor, Laszlo, and Nadja. They live alongside Colin Robinson, an energy vampire; and Guillermo, Nandor's familiar. The series explores the absurdity and misfortunes experienced by the vampires. In the episode, Laszlo mixes Guillermo's DNA with stray animals, creating hybrids. Meanwhile, Nadja tries to end her curse, while Nandor and Colin Robinson teach at night school.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 0.350 million household viewers and gained a 0.10 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received extremely positive reviews from critics, who praised the humor and prosthetic make-up used for the creatures.
