Summary

A dark legend has haunted the indigenous cultures of North America for centuries. Stories of an ancient creature born from desperation, hunger, and the most primal of human instincts, is said to roam the forests, devouring the souls of the lost and the vulnerable. In more recent history, historians have sifted through the folklore, historical accounts, and eerie encounters with this insatiable beast and have struggled to name the definite origins of the malevolent creature. Traditional academics tell us that it represents a cautionary tale, a manifestation of our deepest fears and the consequences of unchecked human greed. It serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between man and nature and the dangers that lie within the untamed wilderness. Though some reports and alleged sightings would seem to indicate the primal monstrosity is all too real. This case file, join the Theorists as they head down the dark forest paths and pick up the grotesque trail of…The Wendigo
