Werepanthers are a race of supernatural creature and a subspecies of shape-shifter. They are human beings who possess the ability to transform, in whole or in part, into the form of a panther. Werepanthers are one of several fantastic breeds of creature featured on the HBO supernatural drama series True Blood, which adapts the "Southern Vampire Mysteries" series of novels by author Charlaine Harris. On True Blood, werepanthers were introduced in season three of the show and are represented by characters such as Crystal Norris, Calvin Norris, Felton Norris, Becky, Luther and Timbo. In the "Southern Vampire Mysteries" series, werepanthers were introduced in book four, Dead to the World, which was first released in 2004. In Dead to the World, the character of Jason Stackhouse is turned into a werepanther. On True Blood, Jason is bitten by a werepanther, but the bite doesn't take, and he does not become a panther. This may have something to do with his Fae halfling heritage, as revealed later in the series.

Werepanthers also appeared in the Gargoyles animated television series by Walt Disney Productions. In the series, Anansi, a Child of Oberon, placed the Mark of the Panther on Fara Maku, which is similar to the mark which the Panther Queen placed on her oldest son. Fara Maku placed the mark on Tea, his love.

Werepanthers are a breed of Werecat that appear in the Wereworld series of novels. They are people who can take a panther-like form. The Pantherlords hail from Bast and rule over Braga, being leading members in the Forum of Elders, alongside the Werelions of Leos and the Weretigers of Felos.
