Tonight, my special guest is author and researcher Chad Lewis. He's here to discuss his research behind the cryptic Wendigo from his new book, Wendigo Lore.
No other legend invoked as much fear, panic, and dread as the Wendigo. For hundreds of years, people in Canada and the United States have told stories of a giant cannibalistic monster that could devour an entire community- or worse yet, possess you and turn you into a Wendigo. Almost everything previously written about the Wendigo comes from an anthropological or sociological perspective, often failing to address the lore's supernatural component. Not this book! The result is one of the most comprehensive explorations of the Wendigo legend ever written. While not for the faint of heart, Wendigo Lore is a treasure trove of information for those seeking to learn more about this unique legend of the Northwoods.
