The Haudenosaunee are a people whose history is steeped in folklore and legend. They are a nation of stories. A nation of secrets. In this episode of Legend Hunters we follow author Mason Winfield as he digs deep within this fascinating culture and uncovers the secrets behind the legends. False Faces, Witch Lights, and Little People are only a few of the myths he examines while he immerses himself in the Haudenosaunee community. Little does he know that his research will lead him to an ancient Haudenosaunee burial ground and an exorcism that went horribly wrong.
