Pukwudgie

Following another group of mischievous and evil creatures, the Pukwudgie were known by many Algonquian tribes to be little people who run about in the forest. If the tribes weren’t careful, the Pukwudgie would steal children away in the dead of night. The Algonquian people believed strongly in this creature and they didn’t take its existence lightly. However, there were some tribes who believed that the creatures were harmless unless treated with disrespect. Even to this day, they are known to many Algonquian people as dangerous and a group of beings. They are believed to be about knee high, and their name translates to “person of the wilderness”. They are said to smell very sweet and have a strong association with flowers. The Pukwudgie allegedly have magical powers in which they can even turn invisible. Wait until Papa Smurf hears about this.
