Met with our local shaman. Some highlights from my notes:
*Wendigo is thought to be something only Native Americans spoke about but others have seen them in recent decades all over N. America. AKA skinwalkers, goatman. Legend is that a long time ago a man had no choice but to eat human flesh to stay alive and became the first wandering Wendigo. Other legends say the Wendigos haunt forests protecting them and its wildlife from outsiders with bad intentions.
*Bloofer is right that you have to dismember the beast so it doesn't resurrect itself. But it's way, way more complicated than I first thought: each limb of the body must be salted and torched completely, then scattered; or each part must be secured in some REALLY remote place (like the bottom of a lake, sea, well, etc.).
*Silver bullets or weapon (knife) are key. Conventional weapons are useless against the Wendigo. This guy, who has met a Wendigo, fired 20 round drum of 12 buckshot and 10 rounds of .338 Mag from 20 yards and it was still coming.
*Heavy duty Boise headphones are needed to block out its shrieks. Hadn't thought of that one.
*Only moment my hair stood up a bit: "You don't hunt the Wendigo. It hunts you."
