The Werewolf Girdle…

In Germany the transformation is believed to take place by means of a belt made of wolf-skin, and should this be unfastened or cut, the man-wolf immediately looses his wolf nature.

Mr.Kelley; in his” Curiosities of Indo-European Tradition and Folk Lore.” speaks of these girdles being once for sale.” A sale, says he,” was made by order of the authorities, of a heap ofold things that lay in a room in the Erichsburg. Among them were old implements of the chase which had been taken from poachers, and also some werewolf girdles.

TheAmtmann’s man, having a mind to try the effect of the girdle, buckled one of them on, was immediately turned into a wolf and started off for Hunnesruck.

The Amtmann rode after him, and cutting at his back with a sword, severed the girdle, whereupon the man resumed his proper shape.”

Infamous Thunderbird…

“It’s been awhile since I’ve read about this particular tale and watched the footage so I thought I’d share for everyone here. At 8:30 p.m., July 25, 1977, two giant birds swooped down on a backyard in Lawndale and attacked a 10-year-old boy. One of the birds latched on to the youngster and started to carry him away, but the boy’s mother began beating on the bird until it released him. Shortly after in that same year John “Chief AJ” Huffer. captured this infamous footage of Thunderbirds in Illinois.

Wildlife experts came to the conclusion that they were just turkey vultures but the Chief beloved he had filmed the mysterious thunderbirds of his peoples legends.

Thunderbirds have always fascinated me. I’ve seen and filmed and even walked up to some very large birds and waterfowl over the past few years. It’s a feeling of awe when they allow you to get near, it doesn’t happen often but for some reason no animal is afraid of me.

So having been near some big beauties i was familiar with their sounds, shape, flight shadows. So when my sister and I had our strange moment in Freetown Forest we knew something was different about this birdie.

Now my sister is the one who saw it, I saw the shadow and we both heard a sound from it we have never heard before.

My sisters words were “ is that a pterodactyl?!”

Who knows what it was but the sound I won’t forget, I’ve never heard it since.

So, maybe he did film vultures, but I for one believe something is out there flying around. A beautiful large majestic bird of legend…”

Werewolf Wednesday…

“As I walk the land

My wolf beside me

My protector, my friend

Our thoughts and feelings go hand in hand

He too knows how we feel

As we look at the damaged forests

Praying it isn’t real

How can he enjoy the hunt

If there is nowhere for him to run

No prey left, only pavement under the moonlight or sun

How can there still be mysteries

If we’ve cleared as far as the eye can see

How can the untamed survive

How can we keep our wild alive

Soon we’ll care not if there is a moon In the sky

It’s hard to howl at the moon

If you cannot stop the cry…”

Poem by me…

Wrentham State Forest…

I took some time out on my own to explore the forest before the rains moved in. This is the Wrentham State Forest. This forest is over 1000 acres and has some really rugged parts. It’s verrrrry rocky, so where good shoes! I’ve wrenched my ankle good out here before, it’s not well marked so try to keep track of where you are! But, it’s nice to take on a tough forest once and awhile.
This forest connects to other forest networks, including the Warner Trail a 30 mile hike from Here in mass to Rhode Island! I’ve been all through this network and I can honestly say, I’m not sure what it is about this forest but it really creeps me out, ! It does connect out to Mercy Woods in RI that could be it because Mercy is creepy too! It’s also rich in history,
Native skirmishes during king Phillip’s war and George Washington marching through.
You can even walk under the highway here if you don’t mind walking through a large dark scary pipe tunnel!
Is Bigfoot in here? I don’t know but he could easily live here undetected. He has been sighted in connected forests! It’s very dense here, and he certainly has everything he needs to sustain him here, and a green corridor for miles to travel through. You could walk all day out here on the weekend and still see no one! But I can’t stress enough on paying attention because it’s all dense and rocky looks the same in a lot of areas!!
