Long before settlers arrived, the Salish, Lummi, Yakama, and Cayuse tribes knew to fear what lived in the woods: malevolent forest spirits so dangerous that many tribes refused to even speak their true name. They are known as Stick Indians. Said to have the power to paralyze, hypnotize, or cause insanity, and in some traditions even eat people who fall prey to them. This week we're diving into one of the Pacific Northwest's oldest and most chilling indigenous legends. What are the Stick Indians, what do different tribes believe about them, and why are people still reporting encounters in the Cascades today?
