Deep in the Canadian backwoods, a hunting party splits up to track moose through the endless northern forest. One guide takes a client out into the trees. Neither of them comes back the same. What begins as a simple wilderness expedition turns into something far older and stranger - a creeping dread, a smell on the wind, a voice calling from the dark, and a presence that moves through the woods on feet that barely touch the ground. Published in 1910, The Wendigo is Algernon Blackwood at his most haunting: a slow, atmospheric tale that helped shape a century of wilderness horror and remains one of the definitive stories of the uncanny North. The trees go on forever. Something is moving between them. Don't listen to this one with the window open.
