Advice From a native American shaman with dealing with Skinwalkers: There have been quite a few contributors to your channel who have traveled through or lived on ancestral Native American lands. Many have encountered entities that they assume are wendigo or skinwalkers. Most people don't have enough information on either of those things to distinguish them from anything else they could encounter. There are more things in the Americas than skinwalkers and wendigo. But the most two famous things are usually what people hear about. Most of the time what people encounter are protective entities set in place by tribes that once lived there. Or things more ancient than the tribes. Most of the time people who encounter them are likely to sage smudge or go to their European ways of defeating these things. Both work for a while, but the entities return. The best way to stop the entities of native lands from causing harm or fear is to make peace. Not war. Plant a tree on the land in their honor. If the tree grows from the seed, they've accepted the peace offering. Remember that the land you live on is permeated with the will of those who walked before you. That making war with the land is harder than making peace. Set aside a place on the land to honor those who walked there before you, both native and those from other lands who may have walked there. Give that place respect and keep it reserved for them. And they will respect your homes. The beings of the wilds are more complicated, and often people consider something that scares them to be evil. The things encountered in the wild are of the wild, and they would not venture into human homes. When you venture into theirs, should you encounter them, think of them as a homeowner in whose cabin you ask to stay the night. You're the guest. Consider yourself a guest, and don't overstep your bounds. Many of the entities to be encountered in North America have their own ways, but the best way to encounter anyone or anything is with respect and courtesy.
I hope those who are dealing with difficult times and situations can come here and read this comment! Such good advice, more peace then war. Very well said thank you!
The subject of Skin Wakers is truly fascinating. The mixture of nature, folklore, and the ancestral lore from native Americans, makes Skin Walkers terrifying and unsettling
Regardless of how the day went, there is something calming and comfortable about listening to Mort at night. It's ironic due to the subject matter of the tales but always feel better after a Mort video. Been listening here for many years now and want to say thank you. Im sure there are many others who feel the same. Cheers.
I absolutely love your wilderness vids! I tend to have trouble sleeping if I listen to the stories that revolve around or in one's home, so I try to be careful with what I watch, if only so I can sleep. But your wilderness vids are perfect! I can get spooked and still sleep at night :3 the Cryptid ones are my favorite.
I have the same thing haha, creepypastas that revolve around houses being infiltrated by crazy folks, or demons/ghosts just make me freak out and I won’t be able to drift off. I have bad anxiety too and although I don’t frighten easily - those home infiltration stories do.
@Mortis Media Thank you so much! I do try to stay awake to listen to Nature Week :) Basically all my favorite genres. P.s Did I hear your cat(s) meowing at the outro? Hahaha, good night 🌙
Wow! Long video tomorrow? I will be ready Mortis. And always excited for your great compilation. Just wanted to thank you for this week's marathon. Great topics! I relisten to all of them, until now, and i'll do this one and all of them. Hope you'll reach your goal soon! 400K! :) 💙🖤💙🖤
My last boss' name was Chef and I wasn't surprised at all, you could tell she was one of those people that didn't hv friends in highschool and takes it out on everybody now that she's an adult.
I love the wilderness Week- perfect timing to get us in the mood for spooky season!! You rock Mort. I’ve listened to you for years now, close to 10 at this point I think! Of all the horror narrators, you are my favorite and the one that has stuck with me. You do such a great job, thank you so much for all the effort you put into your stories and content. We really appreciate it 🎃 👻
Raven, killer orange cat, mortis media, blues spooky and best one for me mr nightmare not in any order but my top too is mortis and mr nightmare, your turn buddy list for list NOWWWW 😂😂
Hi Mort I'm so excited for Nature Week 😀😊🖤 Thank you so much for another amazing video love you bro 🖤Stay Awesome 😎 can't wait to listen to this and let the Darkness Take Control hope everyone has a great night 😊
Mort- here in America its getting colder (finally) in some spots, so camping is coming to a close. These stories are awesome because they coinside with the last effor to get out there for a lot of peoole.
I live in the same county as Shiprock. On a trip to Gallup for a soccer match in high school, my coach brought up the idea of sharing skinwalker stories while driving through the rez. I’ve never personally encountered a skinwalker but man did my coach share a story that still scares me to this day lol. I’m Navajo and I read the attached comment the narrator left. I can only add my 2 cents and absorbed knowledge from my own elders in my community. Becoming a skinwalker gives one unnatural abilities but because of that, it requires a price from their own lives or that of one close them. More often that not, their purpose is just to scare and not actually harm but they do have that ability - again, it would require a price. One should always be careful at night, especially don’t whistle.
I am not Native. However I used to live in Flagstaff,Arizona. The Navajo Nation is very close. Going there with friends at night was so creepy. I won't cross paths with a coyote.
I don’t get why people call someone first to ask what to do when it’s obvious to call the police especially if you feel like your in danger! Go inside and call the police.. smh
I'm sorry but the visual of the cat that likes to lean on the screen falling out the window because the screen wasn't there made me chuckle...hope it was ok tho
I was kinda drunk 😂 when I commented on the camping I was at a birthday party 😂 but everybody will agree when you see Mortis Media has uploaded u get a special kind of feeling 😉😊
Found a mistake in story 7, you say " if you survive they latch onto you like a parasite but only if it touches you WHICH IT DIDNT" but also in the same story literally 30 seconds before you said " help someone's got my leg" so which is it did it touch you or not?
I would really love to know where story 5 took place exactly. A curve street next to the canal, near an orchid or almond farm sounds very very much near the area in Stockton I live at
Ok, so Chet was a jerk for breaking up with her on the spot like that after that one little incident irritated him. She avoided a toxic relationship thanks to that Skinwalker.
yah, 2nd story, if you hear a child scream and then yell "help me" in the forest, you should immediately call the police, the chance of it being a real life cryptid is like .0000001 percent so its probably a really a child that needs help, not calling the police because you think it MIGHT be a wendigo is incredibly negligent and irresponsible.
By no means a hater or disbeliever in NA folklore and superstitions, but many of these stories can easily be seen as a sighting of some sort of wildlife (bear,coyote, wolf) with mange or some other disease
Sorry Mort -- no more Skinwalkers! -- it's getting cold up here in the frozen North! -- Wendigos only! Cheers Warren, who wonders if Wendigos ever go to Wendy's?

waiting for the day i see someone showing off a dead skin walker they shot and killed feel like if they were real it would’ve happened by now if i’m out in the wild i’ll have my rifle/handgun and if i encounter something like that so close i’m shooting it MULTIPLE times because nothings gonna take a whole magazine of rounds without hurting badly
the woman in the ssecond video has no basic survival instincts or common sense she just continued recording even after being told to go inside she got lucky the creature wasnt too hungry that day
Ooh! Poll! Don’t really think they do - still waiting for those skinwalkers to come for me. BUT. I also don’t think the legends come from nowhere. Weird that so many cultures have similar stories. Pop culture has twisted them into the automatic explanation for every creepy woods story though.
Enjoy the stories but found a couple of contradictions. The girl by the lake was "grabbed by the leg by said Skinwalker"...couple of minutes further it states if they touch you they stay like a parasite"..goes on.."but fortunately it didn't touch me"..??..other one too long to type..but this ruins the credibility of the stories for me.

Very wise words from someone I can see to be very wise ❤ Greetings. To that person and to You ❤

Nothing beats skinwalker stories dude. 🙌
Your collection of Skinwalker stories are the best, I love these and always enjoy listening to them while studying, writing, draeing and sleeping.
Around the campfire,
Encircled by evergreens,
Throughout these woods,
Wendigo screams.
i huddle in fear,
and wait my friend
as howls draw near.
i think it's the end.
Mortis you are an amazing narrator, you and Let’s Read are my favorite narrators.
Wow, thank you!

The scariest part of all these stories is the girl being into a guy named Chet 😂
You know, Chet? My good buddy Chet? My number one partner *in criiiime*? Till the wheels fall off!
As a guy named Chet I find that hilarious but not that anyone cares or anything.
My last boss' name was Chef and I wasn't surprised at all, you could tell she was one of those people that didn't hv friends in highschool and takes it out on everybody now that she's an adult.

Go inside and call the police.. smh
I know why. Cause #2 is my sloppy BS fiction. I was drunk AF when I typed & submitted that story to Mort 2 days ago. My bad.
Oh Mort, you feed my dark desires. I love these stories. Keep up the amazing work. Love your voice, you stories and your channel
So glad you like them! 🖤🖤🖤
I'm sorry but the visual of the cat that likes to lean on the screen falling out the window because the screen wasn't there made me chuckle...hope it was ok tho
Hell yeah. Its raining in Northglenn Colorado now.
love the rain for spooky stories. perfect setting

Yeah! Skinwalkers! Am I first?

Well, Reddit is full of sloppy, amateur creative writers
Noticed this too..and another contradiction in next story. You WOULD knowvif a "Skinwalker" grabbed you..or didn't..which one?.
...and let the darkness take control.

Ooh! Poll!
Don’t really think they do - still waiting for those skinwalkers to come for me. BUT. I also don’t think the legends come from nowhere. Weird that so many cultures have similar stories.
Pop culture has twisted them into the automatic explanation for every creepy woods story though.
"I am...Native"
Sorry but that sounds just too funny in a British accent

None of these are real, they’re viewer/subscriber submitted creepypastas.
