"Whisper"
Blind genetic hybrids, stalk our heroes, in a story very reminiscent of The Island Of Dr.Moreau, with ‘the creatures’, less Wraith-like and more vampiric-like, in the style of those from of 30 Day’s Of Night. The episode was shot Hammer style, lot of dark, shadows and sharp white teeth...

"Wraith"
In consumption of a human, the Wraith does no overt physical damage to the person, but rather "drains" them of their life energy. The Wraith treat humans similarly to how a human might treat cattle or livestock, although in a much more sadistic and brutal way, but certainly viewing themselves as vastly superior. Hibernating for (human) generations at a time, they will eventually awaken and cull various planets throughout the galaxy by attacking them with darts that harvest humans. These humans will then be consumed by the hive later on. Once the harvest is complete the Wraith will return to hibernation to allow the planets' populations to regrow before another culling.
Wraith have pale teal or white, waxy-looking skin; typically white, long hair; translucent yellow pointed teeth, and are very aggressive. They are exceptionally skilled martial artists. It is common to see them dressed in human-like gothic clothes (again accounting for vampire culture), such as long, black trench coats.
Natives to the Pegasus Galaxy, where a team of humans have taken up residence on an exploration mission, the species are vastly technologically superior to humans, though have crude technology in comparison to some of the other alien species depicted on both Atlantis and SG-1. Despite their technological inferiority, the Wraith exist in overwhelming numbers that are enough to drive even a more powerful foe into submission. In the back-story of Atlantis, the Ancients were driven from the Pegasus Galaxy after being unable to win a war with the Wraith.
