The Evil Spirit That Devours Mankind

from Autumn's Oddities Hosted by Autumn Grube

The Wendigo is a horrifying creature of Algonquin Native American legends said to devour human flesh, although it can never be satiated. But are they only part of Native American mythology or are there really cannibalistic creatures waiting for their next victim in the forest?
