Monster Mash round 1
Zombie vs. Wendigo
Zombies have become ultra-popular in today’s culture, possibly exceeding vampires. One of the highest rated shows on Television is AMC’s Walking Dead, and there have been a myriad of movies and novels written about them, most recently the delightful zombie comedy Warm Bodies. Those things are all nice to know, but it won’t do anything for a zombie in a battle against the Wendigo. The traditional zombie is a slow moving, stumbling creature that is awfully fond of eating the brains of its victims. There have been other, hyper-fast, crazed zombies like those in 28 Days Later. The latter zombies would definitely be more fierce, and harder to defeat, so we’ll go with those in this battle.
The Wendigo is a little known Native American legend. The name translates to “the evil spirits that devours mankind.” According to legend, the Wendigo can only be seen if it is faced head-on. It is a gigantic spirit, which had once been human but has been transformed through the use of magic, and can be summoned by magic. It is reputed to have glowing eyes, long fangs and long tongues. They are driven by a hunger for human flesh, and are thought to attack cannibals. The Wendigo is also seen as a sign of impending doom.
They might be popular, by I think zombies are overrated in terms of their fighting skills. In reality, a well-trained military could handle a zombie apocalypse. The Wendigo, on the other hand, is absolutely fierce and nearly impossible to kill. If you don’t believe me, read Edgewise by Graham Masterton, an excellent novel featuring a Wendigo. Sorry zombies. You’re going down in this fight, but they can take solace in the fact that they have one of the highest rated programs in television.
