This mod adds a terrifying beast called the Wendigo into Minecraft.
It will curse you as soon as you enter a Snowy or normal Taiga biome and then start stalking you.
You will hear sounds, footsteps and things breaking around you before it appears

In the Taigas a few things to help you along can be found,for example: A log cabin!
These cabins are full of Wood and resources to help you and also contain a rifle hidden in a chest which can be used to fight off the beast.

But some cabins were already destroyed by the Wendigo and contain the horrorfying sight of a dismembered Lumberjack.

The forest itself isn't empty: Dead bodies of different animals can be found laying in the snow. Break and use these to your advantage, because they give food.

When the Wendigo starts hunting, start running and use your blocks to gain distance, so you can shoot it with a rifle. This will only stun the beast for about 5 seconds but might just save your life.

And do not feel safe behind a wall or a window in your house because it can break in. Because of its size and long arms it rips apart trees and anything it its way, so it never stops or has to go around a tree.

If you get killed and you respawn, it's not over yet: It will start stalking again.

With each attack passing by the time inbetween will get shorter, but do not feel safer, as this just means that you will be targeted quicker.

If you survive, good job.

If you enter a snowy taiga biome and you don't get cursed by the Wendigo (Curse of the Snow Potion effect doesn't apply to you),

relog or rejoin your world.

If the Wendigo seems to not be animating correctly, turn off your shaders or try to search for an option to turn off entity shaddows in Minecraft settings / Shader settings or config.

Relogging, after Curse of the Snow got applied to you will mess up the timings and cause the stalking sequence to reinitiate from beginning.
