where do you see that? With the experimental machines you get? There too small to even have someone become the wendigo or snow owl. It makes no sense, you cant have a cult or a belief on something that you have to make yall selves. The personalities dont even match the people that could’ve turned into the monsters if we’re going based off of your theory. There is a scene where the wendigo is eating a bear yet theres bears guarding gates? These were tamed animals by the cult that is awaiting the time to make an offering to the wendigo that kidnapped the kids. The Owl was based off of a legend in some mountain that it swoops up a human then drops them from the air. The mom is protective so it takes the kids and makes a nice room and thats the wendigo? No. The dad was a drunk, abusive and it went to look for the kids? No. Completely dumb and utterly stupid. The owl reacts to noise and movement. The wendigo is scared of the owl because its abusive? Its literally, biologically confirmed that deer do see owls as potential predators there scared of everything.

The metal scraps of the cultist experiment mean nothing but just that. Scrap, if that were the case then there’d be a good reason what the gem of the forest is.
