Little People Legends from Prince Edward Island
Ойын-сауық
From Mi’kmaq warriors to Acadian fishermen to Scottish and Irish farmers, residents of Prince Edward Island have long told stories about tiny elusive men and women seen from time to time flitting through the forests and frolicking on the beaches of Canada’s smallest province. In these excerpts from my upcoming documentary ‘Legends of Prince Edward Island’, we take a look at two ‘little people’ stories endemic to Prince Edward Island.

0:05:55 - The Fairies of Cape Wolfe

I am Saskatchewan Cree and we have a dogman living in our reservation and his owner is a family of little people who can shapeshift. We are all friends.

Never happier than when I get a notification that Hammerson has published a new video.
I love stories like the ones you make videos about. Cryptids, myths and local legends in remote areas of the world. You make some of the absolute best content on these subjects I've ever come across, and it fills me with so much joy when you upload something new that I haven't seen yet. I hope you know how much we appreciate the time and effort you put into this. It's worth it.

I have to say that your grasp of the English language is amazing and full of the correct interesting words used at the right time. So descriptive , you paint a perfect picture with words - no prosaic boring chapters always interestingly perfect. Normally writers fall into a pedantic style of writing these history’s and it turns off most people, but again your style of writing is chalk full of exciting scenes you’ve painted with exacting resolute words and phrases …thanks for this beautiful painting you’ve put together of eclectic and resolutely fantastic stories. Parker S
Appreciate your stories. Minegoo on PEI reminded me of the Menehune (pronounced men a hu nee), a "mythological" race of dwarf people who lived in deep forests and hidden valleys of the Hawaiian Islands. Very similar pronunciation. While on the island of Kauai, I visited the historical Menehune Fish Pond, bounded by a 900-foot-long wall at a large bend in Hulēʻia River. The Menehune were credited with building the pond in one night, according to Hawaiian folklore.

I love stories of little people, but this is the only challenge you really get to hear much about them. My guess is that they're better at hiding than Bigfoot, especially because they're small. Thank you Hammerson for uploading these stories of them.

Have to say there's nowhere for them to hide in these parts, there's certain foreboding places like Cannock Chase and the Yorkshire moors, but beyond those locales I don't think a Bigfoot or a Dogman could survive undetected, I've heard similar stories too myself but I doubt the validity of them this side of the world.

I've been going through my GGGrandfather's Captain James Douglas Warren, I knew nothing before coming and going flying to go on a ten day bus trip to visit them all. All 3 if my Greats are Master Mariner's, 1st two from P.E.I. originally from Tyron? Quebec. The Goudrop & Warren Family's have honourable mentions in the book My People, My Island of P.E.I. by J. C. My Gramps J.D came here in 1885, he opened up the Trade Routes around Vancouver Island to the Haida Gwaii. My GGGram Teesmitsa Edenshaw was a Chief's daughter, and oldest to die here in 1931 at 104. My Aunt Sarah Warren was a Matriarch of the Songhess, & King & Queen Freezy aka Freezier aka Fraser's, G.Grandaughter. After the Potlatch Ban, she was the 1st to6 win back the Right's for The North People, The Traditional MASK DANCE in 1950.

since finding homo floriensis , these old stories of little people on islands makes a lot more sense !
If you watched the movie Downsized or even AntMan, or Honey I shrunk the kids is basically about the possibility of downsized humans, and of course giants and titans were also real, we are walking on bodies of petrified titans after all. I believe massive populations of these little people exist under the Greenland ice which said to have large caverns under the mountains. They have an entire world of their own, like a cave of wonders. I believe they can come and go and change their form to normal sized humans and walk among us, or become giants if they need be. They either have a natural ability to do it or technology, like AntMan or there was that UFO in one of the Man In Black films who could do that, which is based on a real story of a UFO encounter witnessed by many people where the alien shrunk itself and his spaceship as well.

Im half Native American & my people had encounters w/ both the little people & the giants. I myself am said to descend from one of these gaints. Which is why i had 2 rows of teeth as a child. My oarents had the extra row removed so i could fit in but many back home still feared me due to the belief that i have strong medicine/magic in me. Magic or no though these beings did exist. Some still carry them within us.

Sorry to bother you with a question that I would assume you have seen hundreds of times by now but why did you unlist/delete the Documentary with Frank Graves? I know you re-uploaded it, or made it public again sometime ago. Im genuinely curious because that video was probably one of your channel's best and certainly one of if not the most popular. Not to mention its what made me subscribe to your excellent channel in the first place. Regardless, I hope you continue making content and please reply to this if youre willing and able.

we enjoy your channel a lot. thank you for the research and great stories. i have only one reproach. please stop using the word "preternaturally". it does not mean what you think it means. it does NOT stand as a synonym for supernatural. it means something that is "almost, seemingly supernatural" (but which is not). i will provide an example. my mom tends to call everytime i sit down to eat. it is a running gag between my bf and i. it could be said that she has a PRETERNATURAL ability to know when i am trying to relax and eat. you're welcome.
