RULES

  • Low effort posts or poor quality video posts will be removed at the discretion of the moderators. Any content that is spamlike in nature, uninteresting/unappealing, or does not represent urban myths can be deleted.

  • If you want to post a 'true' scary story that has happend to you, go to /r/nosleep

  • If something contains nudity, please label it [NSFW], if it contains nudity, yet you do not label it, it will be taken down.

The Terrifying Truth About the Wendigo Legend. Urban Myth or Real-Life Horror?

The Wendigo is no ordinary monster. Born from acts of desperation and human greed, this skeletal, hollow-eyed creature is said to roam the frozen wilderness, driven by an insatiable hunger for human flesh. Witness accounts speak of glowing eyes in the forest, guttural growls, and voices mimicking cries for help - luring the unsuspecting to their doom. Could these tales be warnings or evidence of a real, malevolent force? > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vP8evk0TKtk

This Obsidian mirror was used by Queen Elizabeth I’s adviser and occultist John Dee to 'speak' with spirits of the dead and angels. The researchers estimate that Dee’s mirror is over 500 years old, most likely made in the final decades before the Spanish conquest of Mexico in 1521.
