Something has been seen in the woods of York County, South Carolina for over 200 years. In the 1820s, settlers near Rock Hill called it the Waxhaw Wanderer a gaunt figure that mimicked a child's cry. In 2018, someone on the Catawba River Walk saw a 7-8 foot figure on all fours. In 2024, a creature at Ebenezer Park was reportedly breaking trees in half. In 2025, a viral video with 140K views captured what witnesses call a wendigo. Cherokee legends speak of the same thing. #Wendigo #YorkCounty #So
