A Pukwudgie, translated as "little wild man of the woods that vanishes", is a human-like creature of Wampanoag folklore, found in Delaware, Prince Edward Island, and parts of Indiana and Massachusetts, sometimes said to be two to three feet tall. According to legend, Pukwudgies can appear and disappear at will, shapeshift, lure people to their deaths, use magic, launch poison arrows, and create fire. Do these mysterious magical creatures of Native American lore actually exist?

Walk with Joel through the forests of the Bridgewater Triangle as he uncovers the mystifying creatures called the Pukwudgies. He looks at the mythologies surrounding the Fae and if that concept is the precursor to the mysterious little creatures of Native American stories. Lastly, Joel explores some modern encounters with the elusive little entities and how they interact with people of today's era.
