The Wendigo Myth

Every man who ventures alone into the wilderness should fear the spirit of the lonely places, known as Wendigo in northern Canada and by different names in other parts of the world. The cunning of Wendigo is that it knows how to keep out of your sight. As you travel, it is always behind your back. No matter how quickly you may turn, it moves faster. As you trample through bush or forest, hills or desert, with no other company but your thoughts, you become slowly aware that Wendigo follows you. You may struggle against the temptation to swing around, but at last you turn and there is nothing. You know that Wendigo has dodged behind you again, so you move quickly to surprise it. Again nothing, except perhaps the slightest movement of a bush. A breeze? An animal? Or... Wendigo.
