The Wendigo by Algernon Blackwood

"The Wendigo" by Algernon Blackwood is a novella first published in 1910. In the remote wilderness of Northwestern Ontario, a moose-hunting expedition takes a terrifying turn when guide Joseph Défago senses something monstrous stalking the woods. After a strange voice calls his name in the night, Défago vanishes into the forest, leaving behind inexplicable footprints that transform into something inhuman. What the searchers discover challenges their understanding of reality and introduces them to an ancient horror whispered about by North Woods lumbermen. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
