cryptid-wendigo:
“Let him come! I’ll see whether he be dog or devil!”
This sculpture of the Moddey Dhoo (Mauthe Doog)resides where the supposed Hellhound itself does - Peel Castle on the Isle of Man. The Moddey Dhoo is said to resemble a black, curly furred spaniel and has been seen since the 1700s.
Legend says that the black dog would walk down a dark corridor and curl up by a fire that was lit by soldiers that lived at the castle. The soldiers were wary of the dog, as they knew he did not belong at the castle, but after a while of seeing him, they were less afraid. They would have to walk down the same dark passage to take the castle’s keys to the Captain, and would never do so alone out of fear of the dog. Until one night, when a drunken soldier boasted that he was not afraid of the Moddey Dhoo. His friends tried to hold him back, but he went into the corridor and a moment later, the black dog left the fireside and followed him. There were no sounds for a few minutes, but then there were sudden screams and howls coming from the dark passage. The soldier ran back to the others, deathly pale and scared. Three days later, he died, and no one knows what happened in that corridor.
