A brief review is presented of the evidence for magnetospheres surrounding the upper main sequence helium peculiar stars. Some of the underlying physical processes are discussed. The helium strong stars all appear to possess comparatively dense magnetospheres. The phenomenon is also present among some helium weak stars, but is quite rare.
