Always Hungry
from Myths and Mysteries Hosted by Zac Barletta
The Algonquian tribes of Canada believed that a creature called the Wendigo could convince a person to become a cannibal. Others believed that committing the act of cannibalism would turn a person into a Wendigo, doomed to a long lifetime of unquenchable hunger for human flesh. This episode tells two true stories of the Wendigo, and the deadly effects that these beliefs had on Native American communities.Resources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendigohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Fiddlerhttp://murderpedia.org/male.R/r/runner-swift.htmhttp://www.irosf.com/q/zine/article/10278https://ipjournal.wordpress.com/2009/12/16/aboriginal-alcohol-addiction-in-ontario-canada-a-look-at-the-history-and-current-healing-methods-that-are-working-in-breaking-the-cycle-of-abuse/Music:Firesong by Kevin MacLeodCircles in the Sky by Cinematic WavesTempting Fate by AudionautixPachabelly by Huma-HumaDhaka by Kevin MacLeodEagle Rock by Wes HutchinsonAll used under the Creative Commons License.
