The Wendigo

By: Algernon Blackwood

Narrated by: Felbrigg Napoleon Herriot

Days from civilisation five men are about to experience something beyond the rational.

In the snow slaked wilds where the natives fear to tread, these men search for moose but find something more terrifying and supernatural. With a rush of wind and the smell of feral nature one of their number is whisked away, leaving them wondering: Who might be next?

Fun and Creepy Short Story

This was a fun and creepy short story. Well written and organized! Good for a little creep in the night if you have 2ish hours.

Creepy inspiration

A good creepy tale. The narrator choice made no sense. An Australian for a north woods tale?

A wonderful story of th North Woods

Reader was completely competent, but not a voicemaster. La la la la la le fifteen.

Just perfect spooky awe myth tale

I think this is far better than the more acclaimed “the Willows” by Blackwood. To me it never came across effectively. Did I miss something? But Wendigo delivers. Mythology, alone in the not so empty woods, guns because something is out there. Well told now also.

atmospheric

I would consider this story more suspenseful or thriller than horror. concentrating on character and atmosphere. not a bad piece, short and easily digestible.
