For the Navajo people, who call themselves The Dine, witchcraft and magic are a normal part of their life. The Dine believe that areas contain both good and evil powers, and humans can harness either of them. Moral tribe members harness these powers to take care of their neighbors. Others, however, practice a more sinister form of witchcraft. The most evil of these become Skinwalkers. Tune in this week to learn about these terrifying creatures.
