In 2008, Davis began talks with MTV about a reboot of the Michael J. Fox 80s comedy Teen Wolf. He says he jumped at the project due to his love of the horror genre. He notes among his influences writers Stephen King and Thomas Harris.

Being the Head Writer, Davis has written 41 episodes as of Season 6, six of which were partnered with fellow writer Ian Stokes.

In an interview, prior to Season 6, Davis announced he was "stepping back" from show. He would still be the showrunner, but not be as hands on with the scripts as he normally would be.

He made a voice cameo in Riders on the Storm as a police officer who found a dead body in the woods.

In 2021, Davis production for a reunion movie began with Davis returning as executive producer and writer.
