I'm not even 20mins in and I can already tell this is going to be my favorite wendigo narration.
And it was written over 100 years ago.
My favorite is one of the Wendigo videos on lighthouse horrors channel. It is one of the few Wendigo stories that really captures the lore behind them, at least in my opinion..
@@norokodven4768any idea which one? That channel is pretty good relative to others. But it's still hit and miss. I mostly gave up on internet short stories. If you don't remember, no worries.
@@EndingTimes0along with The Willows.
2 hours long??? This is gonna be a treat for me to listen to while I walk my dog
This guy is so consistent and with tons of 1-2 hours long
You are brave!
@@bigdogteigan1231 ikr it’s amazing
I watch the long ones at work, well listen rather
@@darthdamascus8167 same
Doc you make a long shitty work day seem a lot better being able to come home and listen to one of your awesome stories thanks man
My thoughts exactly 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
Exactly 😁 🌧
Algernon Blackwoods the author and has an EXTENSIVE horror collection.
Wendigo/ skinwalker stories are my favorite and with my favorite narrator it makes for a great night (:
Oh, me too! On both counts
You should check out Be.Busta hes another narrator like Doc
My favorites are closely the same, although I do prefer the hunters of them as long as they’re good. Heck, I heard one story, who knows why they read it, (one of 3 I sub to) had lines like, “The doorbell rang, it was the werewolf. So I killed him. And then went back to fighting the various vampires in my kitchen...” and I wish I was kidding. 😂😂👎😂
I absolutely love long creepypastas I do my housework while listening to these
This is not a creepypasta, but an actual classic piece of literature. ❤️
Another Sunday dreamscape delivered by Creepen... much needed
I remember reading the trimmed down version of this story in Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark as a kid. Surprised I haven't seen any other comments about it. Classic story, great narration as always Doc.
Too bad this version didn't trim out the racism. =\
I'd been really excited when I saw Dr. C'd posted a 2h long story, but damn.
Yeah, definitely not the high point of the writing, but I more or less let that slide as a product of it's time. It's an older story set in a time where that sort of racism was common place. I feel it more so similar to how modern westerns can get away with racism. Such as Django and Hateful 8.
Good memories man. Nothing beats those old stories. I have a collection my youngest daughter now reads when she has friends sleep over . There are ones that we both have as favorites and nearly 40 years in between my first reading them and her now trying them out as potential tales to scare her friends with I can still remember the first time I spent reading them to myself.
@@joshquivey6990 That is how people were during the time.
@@joshquivey6990 sorry that it wasn’t censored and it ended up intruding into your warm, comfy little safe space echo chamber. We’ll have to make sure that the censorship and erasure of any and all historical accuracy in literature is 100% ironclad next time.
Yes, perfect timing 👌. Thanks Doc
Awh !!!!....Man what a way to go.... great story... Wasn't the ending that I expected.... love to hear how and why he was picked.... Great read as always Dear Dr...... Your stories give me some quiet time my from my worries and woes for a little while..... Thanks for the piece.....
Being native American I really enjoy the wedigo stories and all the other ones great read doctor....
You native American w heavy cultural prominence in your upbringing? Just curious if you had more accurate information. Especially being the entire overhaul the wendigo had undergone as of late.
I love listening to these while im writing, these stories provide excellent insight into how more experienced writers tell stories and write dialog, love the narration too i sometimes end up spacing out just listening if im not careful.
Edit: god damm almost every line in this story is beautifully written i hope i get this good one day
Yeah The Dr. Is In The House! 🤗 That was the Best Wendigo Story Ever! 🧡💚 Hi A.J.! 💙💜 Your Narration was Awesome Dr.! 💔 Thanks for Sharing your Soothing Voice and Lovely Changing Colors! 😘 Dr. you're the Best! 🙋♀️✌🌹👻🐶😹🐢🐾😇👀💋🙏
Just wanna say your videos helped me through some tough times!!
Ahh, a favorite subject of mine! Thank you for the story, time and energy you put into them; Dearest Doctor.
Thank you Dr. Creepen I'm setting up now to relax
Hello 😃 my sweetlicious friend:) how are you doing? I'm good 😉 be safe okay 💋 much love Sexy Grandma Darkness ✌💚
Oh what a classic! Algernon Blackwood was a master of the craft. Puts so much in contrast. In your voice it did feel even more enjoyable Doctor. Thank you. ❤️
Yeah, listening to another playlist, and chilling out before a doctor's appointment. I know, I know, I actually have to see a different doctor, not that I really want to! Unfortunately, being an incomplete quadraplegic comes with a lot of different doctors. It's like being trapped in a body where I can feel everything, but nothing wants to move the way it's supposed to, I should write a story about it, of a sort, fiction of course. I used to write a long time ago, maybe I should start again? 💜 MUCH LOVE 💜
You def should!!
Good luck man
This short story in and of itself is a great work of literature but when the DR. narrates it, it’s a WHOLE different ballgame. This actually scared me. I don’t scare easily. Thank you ,good doctor, for taking it to THE next level.
I clicked the video saying in my head "Well youre wrong, the best is the one by algernon blackwood." And then he proceeds to read the one by algernon blackwood. Pleasantly surprised. Over 100 years old and still the best wendigo story.
You Good Dr. Sure do have some awesome work going on here. Thank for that I really enjoy stories like this.
I started with apprehension but I'm 3 videos in now and I can safely say you have a true talent for narration and an eye for choosing good tales.
thank you so much for narrating this as i suggested in the subreddit
I'm pleased, 2 hours!!! Thank you Dr.
Bout to catch a nap before my night shift couldn’t come at a perfect time!!!!
I've listened to several readings of this very story and this is THE best. Thank you!
Ok, I will be honest, about 30-35 minutes in my left earbud slipped out and it took me a half hour to locate it. So the story didn’t have my usual full attention. Yet what I was able to hear correctly was truly a spectacular work! Hats off to the author, Algernon Blackwood, and alert them of some real potential! Extremely well written, and a damn good story at that! I will relisten to it, but as long as it is, it may take another day. Thank you good Dr for bringing this one to us! And as always like no other can. 👍
But the audiotrack is Surround, no?
This story was published in 1910. The style of writing was a bit different and takes more deliberate attention to follow along. I had the same issue as you when I would read/listen to Lovecraft where I'd often find my brain wandering.
Not to say older stories aren't good! I usually listen to them in chunks tho
blackwood is one of my favorite authors. he and many of his peers were so ahead of their times.. hate to say this because I love me some king, but they would have given him a run for his money. your voice is perfect for this story. x
This is maybe my 4th time listening to this classic. Thank you for all the hard work! You are appreciated :)
This was well written. Took me a bit 2 finish because this is how I like 2 fall asleep. And these last few weeks for me have been exxxtra busy. Appreciate your channeL. Thankya"""
As always. Thank you for sharing this with us. Very good
Fantastic, thanks for the 👆 load 😷 Doc great bit of reading 📖 really well Narrated great work
😊👍🙏
Hello 🙂 my sweetlicious friend:) how are you? I'm good 👍 be safe okay 💋 much love Sexy Grandma Darkness ✌💚
Wow that was quite an epic tale. See you soon dearest Dr
Another Excellent job Dr
This the type of movies we need the be made thank you for this story I was listening all through work
Doc your voice just puts me to sleep (in a good way!!!).
I’ve put this story on for 4 nights in a row now and I’m only 30 minutes in.
I struggle to sleep but your voice + the lovely, lyrical way this story is written just lulls me to sleep.
I’m enjoying the story but I’m enjoying the sleep just as much
Driving home from work came around a turn started going down hill.. after midnight no lights but my crappy headlights.. damn black car sideways in the street. Laying here listening trying not to move to much 🤕. Thx for an awesome story..
sorry to hear that pal
The greatest story happens to be 2 hours long! Good thing I got a drink.
I never really hear the stories, I'm sleep through them. Your voice has helped my sleep problems completely. Then I listen the next day while I do my art. My fav was the serial killer Robert Cassidy and the agents who capture him and then the following stories of Ruth and other agents. Very good. Should be made into a film or series.
Loved the story and your narration was just perfect.
Such a great read. Thank you. U r the best
Those burning feet of fire, though...
God i love your reads. Your voice adds such a awsome touch
A 2 hour Wendigo story told by the good Doc ? I’ve gone to heaven!! Better late than never !!! This is fantastic 😊
Your voice and your stories are so addictive. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👌🫶🇬🇧
This is more than a creepy pasta. This is true literature. Poetry of horror. The world's lesser without blackwood.
Fun fact: the wendigo is also sometimes called "the spirit of the lonely places"
That actually is kinda of fun fact, as out of all of the various and multiple stories about or including Wendigo, I haven’t ever heard that before. And going by the features and aesthetics of what I’m told, it seems to be a logical conclusion to avoid them at ALL causes! Therefore leaving their spirits alone.
Another fun fact: What do you call the recreational vehicle that a wendigo drives on vacation? A Wennedigo.
@@0331machinegunman i mean..its perfect for backwoods living !
IV ALWAYS THOUGHT WENDIGO WAS A CANNIBALISTIC SPIRIT FROM THE NORTHEAST FORESTS AND CANADA?
@@patrickwalsh741 that's true. Apparently somewhere this past decade abouts, the whole aesthetic either changed, or (far less likely as it would take light on new or priority undiscovered evidence) was updated from what you saw in 1999's Ravenous, which I believe would've been the overall understanding of a wendigo to most up until about a decade or so ago. Now a wendigo is being described with eye following characteristics : yellow eyes, shape shifting from deer to humanoid like deer, described as having, a slender, elongated, rotting torso, and a deer skull head, sometimes with yellow eyes. Also the ability to repeat phrases it's heard before and in the voices of those it had heard saying that specific thing. I am unsure as to what the current general understanding of how a wendigo comes to be is. As far as Ive heard from past mythology is that a person became cursed for committing cannibalism, and that each time they grew in strength and prowess but that was the original understanding I believe.
Finally!! 3 hour nap before hitting the midnight oil
Gotta a bit of PTSD. Got triggered today and you are just what I need to relax. Thanks Doc.
I hope you are doing okay and have a much better day tomorrow
@@cleobinx Thank you so very much Chelsea . I most certainly will try.😊
God, you people are weak. I hope your PTSD is from something like surviving Ted Bundy or fighting the Taliban, and not some shit that I'd consider normal trauma like bad parenting, verbal or physical abuse, etc
@@chance2413 Learn how to talk to people
@@brandons6398 no he’s right. Somebody probably didn’t text them back
This comes at a great time, ive been deep into cryptid experiences for the last 3 weeks. Mostly squatch, but all recountings of peoples experiences with them.
To me wendigo are a more terrifying prospect than squatches, because there's a lot less survival encounter stories with wendigos. Of course, could be mistaken identities
Yeah i agree i dont think there are that many survivors 😆
I agree with your statement at being one of the best horror story narrators on the web. For myself I believe in your sarcastic boast at being the best not just one of the best. And the best part of my boast and statement is constantly proven it without a ounce of work on my part. You constantly do so without any effort on my part. Simply by reading the stories that have quickly cemented your place at the top thank you for being so dedicated while reading these for the Authors that rely on you .
Oh hell yeah. 2 hours of the best Cryptoid there is. Game on
Holy smokes Batman! 2 hours of the Dr, I’m getting comfortable.😊
Hahaha 😅..love this comment ;) my sweetlicious Jackboo 😉 you have a Wonderful sense of humor and your very witty as well 🥰 be safe okay 💋 much love Sexy Grandma Darkness ✌💚
Excited to listen it appeared as I opened the app about to search for some entertainment thanks for my dosage doc
Dear Dr. i love your stories but i have a hankering for some excellent stalker or babysitting stories from either you or your most talented story tellers please. I loved this story, edge of the seat as usual thank you again for all your time, effort and talent!!!
Yesss these are my favorite stories
This is my fav Wendigo story so far!
I listen to these whenever i cant sleep, or just as a nightstory. Ive used creepypasta’s for all my bad and good nights the last 4 years. Love your story’s. But id love if you would speak a bit slower, and make the named more clear, so that its easy’er to follow. You probs wont even read this, or change anything. But its worth a shot anyways. Keep it up!
You have a great voice for telling creepy stories
This should be good but can it beat that old Wendigo story you narrated that had “Tennessee” in the title?! Let’s see!
Not at all, unless this one also takes place in my great state.
Any other stories from this author, definitely one of my favorites
Always a treat Doc
This is a good Wendigo story, a classic, great job on the narration doc 😈😎😇
I love wendigo tales thanks Doc
I’m so excited for this one!
I usually pass on wendigo stories but this one was fantastic. Thank you!
Aaaaah Morty, we gotta go to Bendigo !!
There are many wendigo stories, each and every one of them unique and interesting.
This would be an awesome movie!
Bless you for enriching the next 2 hours of my life 🙌
The story was really soooo great👍😊 now to next one good that i have free 😁,today i'll make a story day hsve enough to catch up on❤
I listen creepy pastas at work during my overnight shifts.
THIS IS SO GOOD
Flawless read, Doc! Thank you for the great story! But I have to know, how do you time your readings so accurately? Your voice, tempo and all, for this story and any older ones, is thoroughly consistent. I declare, it has to be sorcery lol!
He apparently has the same sorcery on many of his female subscribers too. It’s no unusual comment to see far more than a couple telling him how....you fill in the blanks. It’s funny, but damn!
It's weird that you consider reading in a coherent manner a skill. But hey, that's how far we have fallen!
@@jackdurden466 If men acted the same way to a female narrator it would be deemed sexual harassment.
@@chance2413 why are you being such a petulant child in every comment thread?
It makes you seem pathetic.
What a awesome,beautifully written story and as a Wenidigo fan i never heard of it.Shame on me🤦♀️😁,but thank you Doc i have a great pleasure to hear it. Thank you so much ☺️👌💞💕
He dear Doc.i'm so happy to hear your voice again,and the great creepy stories. I was long time not on UA-cam. Too much work and i have a new boyfriend i'm very much in love 😂😁.But i couldn't long without my Doc❤❤.And one of my favorite topics for coming back😀i love Wendigo and Skinwalker stories my favorite,and 2 hour long
Now i have either way so much to catch up,i missed so many stories. Story marathon 🙃😊😍🥰
You said the magic word wendigo.
Love this one
"THE GREATEST EVER WENDIGO CREEPYPASTA"
Holy shit that title's overexaggerated.
I'm not surprised the guide knows more about my kind than the other people. as many may know, we like cold places where forests are common, and Canada fits that bill 100%, thus there are quite a lot of us there.
Wendigo stories are some of the best, because, sure, there are beings with strange and nightmarish abilities, some that drive people mad, but those are more Lovecraftian, and thus difficult to get right
Wendigos are more primal, a creature from the cold of what happened before, and the only way to fail writing about us is by trying to reinvent us; wendigos are so close to reality that you need not think of what to write when writing about us because as long as you know what we are some part of you will know exactly how to fill in what you do not know without having to think.about it.
my minor OCD is pleased that this video is exactly 2 hours long
I listen to these as I go to sleep. After listening for 45 minutes to nothing happening other than a lot of needless descriptive writing, I turned this one off and put something more interesting on to fall asleep to.
I hate when the authors think spending five minutes describing the color of the sky, the scent of the smoking wood by the fire, the chafe of their underwear, and the outfit of whoever they are talking to. People think that takes talent. I consider that skill like I consider throwing paint at a canvas and calling it "art" a skill
I remember reading this story for my friends on a camping trip and a bug flew into my mouth two paragraphs in and started choking while my idiot friends just sat there laughing. Good times...
can get my head to stop thinking that there's a band called Deiphago while listening through the whole story
I was spot on!!
Wendigo are my favorite cryptid
Im excited about 2 hours !!!!
I'm also French Canadian and I do suffer those Latin fits sometimes. 😂
I was off by twenty minutes on my guess. I'm not complaining about an awesome story though.
Damn you’re good.
....Was anyone gonna tell me the Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark adaptation of the Wendigo is devised from an Algernon Blackwood story, or did I have to wait and find out from Dr. Creepen myself?
It's over 100 years old😳 i love old stories and if already than they wrote about Wendigos maybe they really exist?🤔
Les goo
He stays in Aberdeen like me but I guarantee there's an Aberdeen in Canada too. 🙏🏴✌️
Today on stuff I listen to while trucking at night
Time to sit back and relax with my favorite drink, alcohol, rubbing or other
The problem i have with 1-2 hour stories is that they tend to feel like they 40% of the time just building up the characters another 20% on eventually getting to the actual horror and the the last 10% is sometimes not really anything substantial too 😅
Unfortunately i feel this story kinda falls into that formula aswell (not exactly obviously). Dont get me wrong the character building at the start was quite well written so it was kinda interesting in its own way but it that amount of character building feels kinda pointless for such a short story (short in comparison to a full novel).
If this author ever wrote a novel it would probably kick ass judging by their ability to write characters and set up atmosphere but for a short story on the internet i personally beleive they should consider trimming the fat little and just getting to the point next time 🙂
I understand the very slight edits you made but it's important to keep the readers writing and most importantly the time it was written alive and unchanged. That way we can study history and learn from it. Not change it and hope it won't happen again sir. For history seems to repeat. Thus we're doing something wrong.
This isn't a creepypasta though, its a book if I'm not mistaken.
Btw love your content, just wanted to mention it. The book was published back in 1910 so i don't think there is any legal issue with you narrating it.
Blackwook or lovecraft both great authors of the horror or science fiction especially lovecraft call of cachullu. Mountain of madness and many more done on stfdn and creepypasta.
We're calling fiction written in 1910 "creepypasta" now?
ye
I watched the movie “Wendigo” 20 years ago…
I don’t know about y’all but whenever there’s a long story like this I’ll put this on as a play legend of Zelda on the Super Nintendo.
