The Winter's Howl is a Wonder Weapon introduced in Call of Duty: Black Ops and is available in "Five" and the remastered version of Verruckt. It fires a blizzard that causes ice-based effects on the zombies. When a zombie is hit once by the Winter's Howl, it emits an icy steam and slows to walking speed. This also does damage to the zombie. If that same zombie is hit again, it is stopped in its tracks and is encased in an ice cube. It is immediately killed when encased by the ice, which will shatter when the player knifes, shoots, or walks through it. It will also shatter if left alone for a few seconds. The Winter's Howl holds 6 rounds and has 24 spare rounds.
