"Wendigo" TV series- upcoming

Post by Jamie »

A "Wendigo" TV series is supposedly upcoming (see this site for details). It is based on a movie and the related comic book, and depicts the wendigo as a deer/human shapeshifter (the folklore wendigo can be depicted in many different ways, it is one of the most variable and hard-to-pin down mythical monsters out there).

Huh...I've never heard of the deer version before. The only ones I've come across describe the creature as being one (or more) of these: a wraithlike being, a giant skeleton with glowing red eyes and a heart made of ice, and a thing that's somewhere between a cat and a monstrous reptile.

Many Wendigos I've heard of and seen drawings of look like Werewolves, but yes I agree the deer is a different approach.

Very cool looking design 8)
The movie was freakin awsome, so hopefully this will be really good as well.
Hope it comes on soon, and not somewhere crappy like FoxKids on Sat. mornings :P

the second and last descriptions are actually from the game werewolf "apocalypse" and the more myth accurate description is a giant zombielike being with a heart made of polished ice
