The cannibal giant whose heart is made of ice is called by many different names among the northern people where winter is the most dangerous time of year. This creature, who is sometimes described as a human being transformed into a monster, howls like the storm wind and pursues its prey. But if its heart can be melted, it may be turned back into a person. A very similar being is called Windigo by the Cree. —“The Chenoo,”
