These stories are similar to the description of the mysterious Neuri tribe, said by Herodotus to live somewhere in what is now Eastern Europe. They wore wolfskins and masks, but once a year they could actually transform into wolves. I think there is more truth in myth and folklore than what is presented in our modern history books.
I read somewhere that hundreds of years ago Native Americans in northern Minnesota use to trade with the Dogmen. These Dogmen talked with their own language and had their own camps/towns. I live in northern Michigan and have seen 2 Dogmen in my life time. They are real, there have been many sightings of them over the years here in northern Michigan, especially in the Manistee national forest!
Born and raised near Gaylord and Petoskey. No sightings, but on several warm summer nights I recall the baying of huge dogs in the wetlands of the Sturgeon River. They howled for hours.
Where were your sightings?

Cheers from Okanagan valley British Columbia 🇨🇦
Okanagan also. Get ready for another bad fire year
Ehh Kelownafornia
@@Tyro_ heeehhhh yep you bet
@@AvenValkyr been trying to get out there for years but Covid screwed me, hopefully when I graduate Uni in a couple years I’ll do a winter 🤞
Whew! Hammerson! You've really outdone yourself. The story Tate wrote of the girl being seduced by a shape shifting dog is particularly disturbing. Thanks for all you do buddy. You are a raisin amongst the flakes.
Alright now here we go more Werewolf stories and legends see if they compare to my own encounters with these scary creatures ! Hoowwlll
Thanks once more for your superb narration on western Canadian First Nations lore.Cheers from the Salish sea….(Georgia strait)B.C.
👍🏽 from Salish country in WA State
The Strait of Georgia is still the Strait of Georgia. The name Salish Sea is used to apply to all the waters that are connected the Strait of Juan De Fuca, that includes Puget Sound, and many others. It didn’t replace any other names, contrary to what many seem to think.
Yes, just what we all needed today. Thanks Hammerson Peters, keep on with the great content.
Thanks for watching, Moose Factory!
@@HammersonPeters Always a pleasure.

The Nootka initiations sound so similar to the Indo-European Koryos rituals. Makes you wonder if there's some cultural lineage that goes all the way back to the steppe area before different groups branched out and settled the world, or if the wolf just sparks a certain kind of response in the human psyche.
When I saw this I thought the exact same thing. The Dan Davis History channel has a good video on it. Also, The Histocrat is another.
Oh wow, that's very interesting. Unbelievable similarities.
maybe even a reaction to the dark days when we were hunted almost to the point of extinction by neanderthal man.
now that is a fascinating theory for why homo erectus today carry two percent neanderthal dna alongside the smallest chromosome count within the human genome when compared with other primates. specifically with chimpanzees for instance who are said to have forty eight chromosomes in their karyotype compared with forty six for humans.
makes a fair bit of sense really, explains both of those biological facts presuming they're correct that is of course whilst supporting the theory that we really don't come from monkeys.
personally i never did like science that much let alone trust it but for sure it is interesting and has to contain an element of Truth somewhere or nearer to nobody rather than almost everybody would buy into it.
surprised they allowed that one out to be fair, after all the system still supports darwinism, despite him backtracking on his death bed...
There is a peculiar connection between Northern Europeans and Indigenous Americans in a common archaic ancestors, Ancient North Eurasians or ANE.
NEW HAMMERSON VIDEO LEEEEETTTSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOO
Don't forget to leave a like so many views it's easy to forget to and I often forget but this was really good so let's show UA-cam and the creator that this is great work c'mon guys!!
The Northeast sections of William Penn's nape of the woods has Dogman...also the Southwestern section of the State, known as "Green County" has haunted areas and Big Foot and the infamous Dogman. Most Dogman sightings are around old Indian burial sites.
Listening from northern Ontario!
"Beast of Gévaudan" may also be of interest.
Wasn't that a lion?
@@BathrobeKeck Maybe. From Wiki: "It was said to attack with formidable teeth and claws, and appeared to be the size of a calf or cow and seemed to fly or bound across fields towards its victims. These descriptions from the period could identify the beast as a young lion, a striped hyena, a large wolf, a large dog, or a wolfdog, though its identity is still the subject of debate."
Interesting story!
There is a 2001 French movie (drama) about it. Kind of a cross between Jaws and Last of the Mohicans.
I won’t go out side at night for a month now
I hear ya!
WOW 😲😲😲😲 another amazing wor6. Thank you brother. Listening from Northern California.
Absolutely Wonderful story's . Thank you for sharing. Will definitely be listening more than once .👍
I can't be happier that you are back you brilliant Hammersmith Peters
Love this channel man! I'm from ptbo ontario and there def isn't much Canadian paranormal, folk lore content out there! So hearing all this fantastic content from my this great country is phenomenal! Thank you hammerson for your dedication my friend 👍
I love this podcast. Your work is second to none sir…
Let’s gooo
I'm so glad I actually got this video hot off the presses, so to speak, 14 minutes after it dropped. Great work, Mr. Peters! My wife and I never miss one of your videos and we play them almost every night. Cheers from Alabama.
I'm glad you enjoy them! Thanks for watching.
So fascinating to hear these stories. Thank you.
I LOVE your content more than anything else on UA-cam. Your scripts and voice are perfected for stories of this nature. i love the way you string together words in such an elegant manner to tell a stories in a captivating way. i hope i may look forwards to more videos done by your production
Me too!
Greetings from southern Okanagan. Thanks Hammerson for all your efforts. Love all the vids! Looking forward to the next!
Man theirs stuff in the Rocky mountains heck all over canada that most people dont know about, myth has a whole lot more truth to it than people think, ive seen some stuff thats for sure.
Dogmen are real and very impolite.
They are bad boys. No Beggin Stripes for them. -_-
Thank you so much for doing all of this fascinating research, and for sharing it.
Really A+ storytelling and art, thank you! Listening and subscribed from Ontario, Canada.
There's also an Inuit tail about how the sun and moon were made and it was a girl who puts soot on her brother's face when he visits in the night and subsequently looses her mind the next morning.
Hammerson!!!! Is that your voice as narration? Always excellent storytelling!
Native Canadians tell of Shape-shifting to Animals by powerful medicine men and are not werewolves but also had the ability to change into other Animals
I'm glad you stuck with making videos. You had me worried a little while back.
Wow! I heard one of these stories growing up. I completely forgotten about it until I heard you tell it. Thank you so much for another great video, my friend.
Thank you for mentioning my hometown; Maple Ridge ❤
Glad to hear from you...
Fantastic content 👌🏻 👏🏻 👍🏻
Love the stories
Where i live, werewolves were said to be kind and benevolent forest creatures who would help lost travellers and children. Quite unique compared to other werewolf legends around the world.
May I ask where?
@@nicresthe Enchanted Forest. Duh!🤤
that'll be "dogman", cynocephaly, think greek orthodox church st Christopher.
a werewolf is a different animal altogether.
said to be an unwanted curse it's often said they can get some control over it given enough time, even being able to change back and forth outside of the lunar cycle, but the killing itself is not optional or they can't change back but once experienced enough they can choose none human targets. but when they're new to it they have no control, think of movies where the werewolf is often shocked and dismayed after they have changed back and realised what they did.
of course then there's the sceptics take on it, it's all metaphor for the inner turmoil of a sociopathic murderer. Jekyll and Hyde. bollocks to that, human murderers harm others by deliberate action through choice, hence they're psychopaths not sociopaths.
@@nicres I am from what was once called the Kingdom of Ossory, Ireland.
Black dogs are the bad ones.
I love stories of my home land
This is incredible, thank you!
14:30 that legend is very similar to another legend from the Coast Salish Tla’amin (Sliammon) Nation. I read it in a book “Sliammon Life, Sliammon Lands” by Dorothy Kennedy and Randy Bouchard. It is interesting how many legends can be so similar even when separated by quite a bit of time and distance.
Love your channel. Could you do a series on lost goldmines and treasure. I think that would be most interesting
TruthJunkie ✨🇨🇦ThankYou ! These are stories worth remembering and sharing!
I asked my mother if she were familiar with cryptids where she grew up in Quebec and she named two of them there.
I had just viewed the Patterson Film when it first aired in the early 1970’s it was of a Sasquatch caught on film 🎥 its a famous footage today ! That capture started up my curiosity about the unseen world happening around us .
I felt everyone was around me was distracted it was confirming what I was seeing or sensing .
Your personal family story is a very interesting story about a real creature it certainly peeked my interest.
Hammerson Peter’s tells the stories of the Down Eastern Canadians French and Native Lores!
ThankYou Hammerson for documenting these stories they are a wonderful resource and treasure of information ❣️❤️🙏🏼🎥
✨🌲🦶🏿🌳🧚♂️🌲🐕🦺😊🕊️✨
Awesome video. What's your source on Soyeetapi mythology? Was it The Stonies of Alberta: An Illustrated Heritage of Genesis, Myths, Legends, Folklore, and Wisdom of the Yahey Wichastabi or Blackfoot Lodge Tales? I'd love to read more about them
Funny you should ask me about that. Last night, I was going through the Claude E. Schaeffer fonds in the Glenbow Museum Archives and found a few hand-written notes about them in there, but they are buried pretty deep. 'Blackfoot Lodge Tales' has some stories featuring them. They also appear in Marcel M.C. Dirk's book 'But Names Will Never Hurt Me,' which covers the various legends behind the naming of Medicine Hat, Alberta. I bet you could probably find some mentions of them in the writings of James Willard Schultz, but I haven't gone through all his books. Maybe I'll try to make a video about them one of these days.
@@HammersonPeters Thanks for all the info. I really respect the depth of your research. Your videos are always so detailed.
@@fairyencyclopedia Thank you very much!
As someone that just turned 40 and got old and boomer i have kids i approve this video
2012, in kashmir ehile driving home ee encountered 3 wolf like crestures on 2 legs at our home snopping around. They ran away on 2 legs
My goddamn mother in-law out on her monthly prowl across the 49th again.. 😐
I love werewolves
As a professional painter these videos make my job much easier.
Awesome
This makes me think of that movie, Kevin Costner played in called, Dances with Werewolves!
I rather like the odd twists of the story about the two wolf-raised brothers of the island. It's easy to expect that the magical man and beautiful woman who bring the brother who longs for civilization back to it are a happy ending, and that his poor brother will eventually end up sadder, living with animals. Instead the wolf brother chooses this breaking point to pursue his own full adult coming-of-age as a wolf which appears to go quite well--he integrates happily into the community he has come to love. Meanwhile, it seems that the human world has lured his brother into a trap rather than recued him and we are left with the feeling that magical humans are more dangerous than magical animals. This would be a natural place to wrap up the story, but instead the human brother returns home to the wolves, only to be attacked by an entirely different animal, when he wn't listen to his animal family's advice, causing even his brother to almost be cast out. Since the story begins with a mother abandoning young children to float in an uncertain state, before being killed herself, I can't help but think this is all about people who struggle almost from birth to find the right community to belong in, the place where they will not be threatened physically and otherwise, the right family and community to grow up in. I like that the human brother continues looking for his mother's people, apparently still convinced that there must be a people he can belong with somewhere, but, while his brother seems to be plenty able to defend himself and reintegrate into his wolf people, we have no assurances that humankind will welcome the kid who roams the earth looking for human community. Animals, it seems have less to prove than people do, when it comes to providing functional community,even if they also deal with life-threatening violence.
I wonder if all of this has anything to do with the modern dogman attacks and encounters in the US.
The Ulffandar are viking warriors,akin to Berzerkers but wolves not bears. Unlike their ursine counterparts they fight in packs and act as wolves.
The story of Wesakaychak and his little brother at 33:33 has a similar ending to the story of the brothers Star Robe and Scraping Wolf at 18:53.
Kinda funny, huh? I wonder if the stories were related in any way?
Great observation. I think you're on to something.
What are the songs used in back ground music ?
HI I LIVE IN THE LOWER MAINLAND IN CANADA B.C...
Ffffff-ccccccckkkkkk yes my nights made lol. New video hel yes. I just wanted to say thanks.

Thanks for the heads up!
did anyone else bust out laughing at 0:05 in cuz they tought that werewolf was doing some kind of "AYYYYYY" type gesture.
That "phrogging" music sting gets me everytime whats wrong with me.
Nope. You're alone on that one.

You get a subscription just for using the word Occident.
How about confluence? Or enigmatic?
@@jessegarcia9418 nah, you hear them all the time, I've never heard Occident spoken and it's around forty years since I read it anywhere.
They are the Cynocephali. Pray to Yahweh if you stumble upon one. They are dark spirits spawned from the ignorance of shaking tent ceremonies. My people didn't know any better.
have You read the Greek orthodox church version of st Christopher?
being much older it surely has to be closer if not the original biblical tale of cynocephaly, now i can't quite recall exactly where in the bible a werewolf is first mentioned but i do recall it predates Christopher.
point being, werewolf and cynocephaly are not the same thing.
Indian furries
Their called Norteno,Dog!🇭🇲✅
Was that almost laughing as you was reading lol
You’re not turning into a werewolf. It’s called puberty. It’s normal to get hair on your body.
😂😂😂
Do you need puberty blockers? Are you over 2 years old? Sign here. No you don't have to tell your parents they won't understand.
@@lilyandlou7669 go home, you’re drunk.
@@connorbalisky1827 o God another liberal that cant take a joke.
@@lilyandlou7669 you’re still drunk
I think this video is geared more towards skinwalkers. Those are demons.
Dogmen are known to be more benevolent and protectors of the forest (for the most part)
I say that because, just like people, there are good and bad ones
Hahaha, furries
❤furries
@@kj5250 definitely an OwO moment to remember
Really great stuff. Just wish you did not talk so fast.
You can slow it down using the settings
Hammerson I wish you focused more on real history / stories instead of mythology
There are many history channels. Hammerson is a rare one telling the history of forgotten peoples.
He is telling real history. He talks about the ceremonies that Natives actually practiced.
These stories are really stupid...
But yet you watch and comment? I got news, it isn't the stories which are stupid. Hits a bit closer to home for you.
I just commented I didn't watch it because it's for children...really stupid ones.@@jayheslin803
Western wisdom oxymoron
Need to improve your narrative style; too sing-sing for me. It's borig even after just 27 seconds.
It’s great for me
Not a fan of this voice
Then leave. Bye! 😊
Then why don't you go ahead and Escape From UA-cam ya kounterfeit Kurt Russell?
