The Tlingit people are as mysterious in their beliefs as the Kushtaka, making for strange bedfellows. "Otter Tales- Stories of the Land Otter Man and Other Spirit Stories based on the Folklore of the Tlingit of Southeastern Alaska" is an excerpt from the book, "In Search of the Kushtaka" by Dennis Waller. The purpose of these 10 stories is to serve as an introduction into the myths and legends of the Tlingit People.
