Flying Head

Description

The Flying Head comes from the mythology of the Haudenosaunee and Wyandot peoples; particularly the region near the source of the Hudson River and the Adirondack Mountains. The Flying Head is malevolent entity, described as a grotesque manifestation with features like a human head, long hair, and eyes that strike terror to witnesses. Its mouth is filled with razor-sharp fangs, and sometimes, it has bat-like wings protruding from its cheeks or bird-like talons. Legends present it as larger than any man and with an impenetrable hide.
