Wendigo (/ˈwɛndɪɡoʊ/) adalah makhluk mitologis atau roh jahat yang berasal dari folklor Algonquian. Konsep wendigo telah banyak digunakan dalam karya sastra dan seni lainnya, seperti komentar sosial dan fiksi horor.
Wendigo sering digambarkan sebagai roh jahat, kadang ditampilkan sebagai makhluk dengan ciri-ciri menyerupai manusia, yang dapat merasuki manusia. Ia dikatakan menimbulkan pada korbannya rasa lapar tak terpuaskan, keinginan untuk memakan sesama manusia, serta kecenderungan untuk melakukan pembunuhan.[1] Dalam beberapa penggambaran, wendigo digambarkan sebagai raksasa humanoid dengan hati yang membeku, yang kedatangannya ditandai oleh bau busuk atau hawa dingin mendadak yang tidak sesuai musim.[2]
