  • Summary

  • Step into a chilling world of indigenous folklore as we unravel tales of the haunting Wendigo from the Algonquin tribes. Ever heard of a spirit that thrives on winter's harsh coldness, starves, yet has an insatiable appetite for human flesh? Or perhaps you're intrigued by the profound symbolism of insatiable greed these creatures represent? Join us as we pick apart the monstrous physicality of the Wendigo, its terrifying transformative abilities on humans, and the rituals crafted for protection against it. We dig into its presence in modern horror narratives and its influence even in video games. We also delve into the rare and disturbing Wendigo Psychosis and stress the significance of culturally sensitive approaches to these myths.
