The result left Huddersfield second-bottom on seven points from 12 games, a point behind Cardiff City, Southampton and Crystal Palace, who were later hosting Tottenham Hotspur.
Alex Pritchard gave Huddersfield a sixth-minute lead with a scuffed shot from 16 metres which somehow trickled past West Ham keeper Lukasz Fabianski before Felipe Anderson levelled for the London side with a fine 74th-minute goal.
Pritchard rued allowing West Ham to get back into the match.
60 min: Leicester 0-0 Burnley
Now a change for the hosts, with Marc Albrighton being withdrawn in favour of Kelechi Ihenacho.
62 min: Southampton 1-0 Watford
Watford think they have a way back into the game, but the referee waves away their penalty complaints after Bertrand slides in on Nathaniel Chalobah. It looks like he gets the ball, but does he go through the man to get it?
65 min: Leicester 0-0 Burnley
Leicester have started to put the pressure on with a series of corners, the latest of which sees Wilfried Ndidi have a shot blocked inside the six-yard box.
66 min: Southampton 1-0 Watford
Goal? No! Charlie Austin finds the net with a deflected effort after good work from Nathan Redmond but his effort is ruled out. What for is anyone's guess.
61 min: Newcastle 2-1 Bournemouth
Callum Wilson has been in scintillating goalscoring form, but he cannot believe he hasn't scored here. He heads over from close range from a David Brooks cross.
64 min: Newcastle 2-1 Bournemouth
And now a chance for the hosts, but Matt Ritchie stabs wide of the goal from Ayoze Perez's cross.
73 min: Southampton 1-0 Watford
Half chance for Andre Gray, but the power is taken out of his shot through a deflection and McCarthy collects easily.
74 min: Leicester 0-0 Burnley
Still no goal at Leicester, but Sean Dyche is doing his best to get one from his side, bringing on Ashley Barnes for Sam Vokes.
GOAL! Huddersfield 1-1 West Ham (Anderson 74')
The Brazilian's first away goal and he finishes off a move he began. Marko Arnautovic, Michail Antonio and Chicharito all fail to find the net, but there is no such problem for Felipe Anderson who smashes home into the top corner.
