Canada/Maine Legends - The Chenoo

[Trogluddite]

Bobbie Short's (RIP) Bigfoot Encounters included a newspaper article that described seven times people may have seen a Bigfoot in Maine; that newspaper article mentions the Chenoo in passing.  There are also scattered references to the Chenoo in the Forums.  Here is a 1950s story, sanitized for children, published in The Edmonton (Alberta) Bulletin on Apr 22, 1950.  

 

 

Older stories about the Chenoo, published in The New York (NY) Sun in 1884 and the Lewiston (ME) Sun-Journal in 1890 reflect a darker side of the human/Chenoo spirit.
