The Wendigo is a mysterious creature, with plenty of Lore written about it.

A mythological creature or evil spirit originating from the folklore of the Algonquian Indians - a cannibalistic giant; a person who has been transformed into a monster by the consumption of human flesh.

Wendigo loosely translates to "evil that devours." They are compulsive man-eaters and are said to have breath-like burnt flesh. It has also become a stock horror character much like the vampire, werewolf, or zombie, although these fictional depictions often do not bear much resemblance to the original mythology.

Wendigo Psychosis has also become the basis of many stories of people who have turned to cannibalism.

“La Llorona” literally means “the weeping woman,” so it’s not surprising that the main characteristic shared by all stories of “La Llorona” is that she weeps. Many stories are told of what she looks like and what she does, and even more, are told of how she came to be such a doleful spirit.

In Latin America, and especially in Mexico, no ghost story is told as often or discussed as enthusiastically, and as widely interpreted as the legend of La Llorona.

On September 1, 1934, just outside Albury on the New South Wales Victoria border, a young farmer was walking home with his family’s new prize bull when he made a gruesome discovery — the partially burnt corpse of a young woman with part of her body stuffed into a ditch. Thus began one of Australia’s longest and most sensational murder mysteries. It would be 10 years before the police closed the case….or did they?

The Pyjama Girl Mystery

After the mysterious body of the Somerton Man was found on an Australian beach in December 1948, investigations deepened, and so did the mystery. Not only did the man’s possessions offer few clues, but many months later the investigators also found a slip of paper in the man’s pocket which read “Tamám Shud,” Persian for, “it is finished.”

To date, the Somerton Man has never been identified. But several theories have emerged in the past few decades, suggesting that the mysterious figure could have been anything from a spy to a spurned lover.
