Deep in the uncharted forests of the Canadian wilderness, something ancient and unspeakable stirs. In The Wendigo, Algernon Blackwood crafts a harrowing tale of psychological terror, primal fear, and the supernatural presence that haunts the remote north.
When a group of men set out on a moose-hunting expedition in the vast Canadian backwoods, they expect rugged conditions and a test of survival—but not the eerie dread that slowly begins to surround them. As their seasoned guide begins to act strangely and whispers of an old Native legend surface, the men realize they are not alone.
According to lore, the Wendigo is a creature born of starvation and madness—an elemental spirit that feeds on the souls of the lost and the desperate. As the isolation deepens and reality begins to bend, the line between legend and nightmare dissolves.
With his signature atmospheric style and psychological depth, Blackwood transforms a tale of wilderness adventure into one of the most enduring and unsettling stories in horror literature.
The Wendigo is a chilling experience that will resonate with fans of cosmic horror, folklore, and slow-building suspense. Perfect for listeners who enjoy stories that blur the boundaries between man, nature, and the unknowable.
