ABOUT THE WHISTLING WAMPUS

The Whistling Wampus, an Arkansas variation of the legendary Wampus Cat, is a fearsome cryptid rooted in Cherokee mythology and Southern folklore. Often described as a hybrid between a mountain lion and a woman, the creature is said to possess six legs, glowing yellow eyes with hypnotic powers, and the ability to emit eerie, high-pitched whistles or screams that sound like a woman in distress. According to legend, the beast was once a woman cursed by a medicine man for spying on a sacred tribal ceremony while disguised in a cougar skin, trapping her in a half-human, half-feline form forever. Today, this mythical predator remains a prominent figure in Appalachian tall tales and serves as a popular regional mascot and cultural icon.
