Anonymous Coward User ID: 78684411 ![]() 09/03/2022 10:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to allthatsinteresting.com (secure)] Quoting: THX 1138 “As the tale goes, the wendigo was once a lost hunter. During a brutally cold winter, this man’s intense hunger drove him to cannibalism. After feasting on another human’s flesh, he transformed into a crazed man-beast, roaming the forest in search of more people to eat. The story of the wendigo (sometimes spelled windigo or windago) comes from Algonquian Native American folklore, and the exact details vary depending on who you ask. Some people who have claimed to encounter the beast say it’s a relative of Bigfoot. But other reports compare the wendigo to a werewolf instead.” Never had heard of it, but was looking through Imgur and ran across a clip with the name in the title. Humans and cannibalism seem to have a long history. . . Yeah I've had wendigo around. I made fun of this one and I kept calling it Winnebago I was so drunk. .. but hey it didn't eet me or do anything weird to me other than give me a really rotten look... |

One in particular on the South Island near Fox Glacier was nice and creep inducing. Turned down the wrong road late and night and all three of us in the camper van got a serious case of the heebee jeebees. Found out later that the local Maori folks thought it was inhabited by evil spirits. Last Edited by THX 1138 on 09/03/2022 10:29 PM Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy.

Lol NZ forests at night are spooky as fuck , the Maori have legends, such as the turehu, patupaiarehe, little white folk that lure you to your death, cannabalistic in nature also, cannabalism was a big thing here, tribal warfare, the vanquished banquet. We even have our version of bigfoot, lol Coromandel man |
