The notion of picking one time of the year to be decent to other people is obscene because it's actually validating the notion of being miserable wretches the rest of the year.

Interesting, I've heard quite a bit about the Skinwalker but it never involved this story. Typically the yee naaldlooshii was thought to be an evil medicine man who had learned all he could about magic and then killed a family member.

I'm interested to look into this version of the legend a little more, can you post a link to where you found this version?

People researching this monster have made a website for it:

Its more like a bigfoot-like creature, rather than a skinwalker.
If I'm thinkin of the same thing anyway~
