Episode 74: Wendigo

One of our most requested topics ever, the Wendigo is a mythological beast from the folklore of the Algonquian-speaking First Nations of Canada and the Great Lakes region of the United States. Said to embody greed, hunger, and the loss of humanity, the Wendigo is a chilling reminder of what happens when our darkest impulses take control - that and more on this episode of Unspookable.
