Topic: Question about Navajo tradition. Please help! | |
---|---|
I'm in the process of writing a book, hopefully to be done in the next year, just in the beginning right now. I need some information on the Navajo skinwalker. I found the common information online, but nothing more than the really common stuff. I want more detail, and something that sounds more. Commiting a culture tabboo, I don't see how this turns one into one into these. Or maybe so. I just want some more research please!

You might find this interesting if you haven't already seen this.
http://animal.discovery.com/tv/lost-tapes/skinwalker/ http://animal.discovery.com/videos/lost-tapes-skinwalker.html I also noticed that there are several videos on YouTube on Skinwalkers as well, in case you haven't been there yet. Finally, if you're writing a book on it why not join an American Indian forum? That's your best bet for getting live input on Indian folklore I would think. |

Abra was right, try a Navajo group chat. However, don't be surprised if they aren't real open about it. You might check out some of Tony Hillerman's fiction books on skinwalkers too as he is pretty accurate.
