About this ebook

Tour 24 countries and territories in one sitting: the frozen north where the Wendigo hunts and Greenland's outcasts become something that hunts back, the night roads of Mexico and Central America where the Cadejo picks who walks home and La Llorona never stops searching, and the Caribbean islands where duppies outnumber the living and a woman with one cloven hoof is the last thing a man ever sees.


Inside you'll find:

- The Wendigo, hunting Canada's frozen forests

- The Qalupalik, waiting beneath the sea ice of Greenland

- The Cadejo, the spectral dog that decides who walks home on the night roads

- La Llorona, still searching the rivers of Mexico and Central America

- The Siguanaba and the Cegua, the river women who steal men from the trails

- The duppies of the Caribbean and La Diablesse, the woman with one cloven hoof

- Twenty-four countries and territories, from the frozen north to the islands


Each chapter follows the same easy structure: the legend, the sightings, why it stays, and how to visit. Told straight, no embroidery.


Perfect for fans of folklore, mythology, and ghost stories, and for travelers who like their guidebooks haunted.


Part of the Folklore and Haunts series.
