Trolls?
What does the Round Rock Hairy Man festival, Nordic runes and a troll (or the ghost of an evil wild hermit) haunting Hairy Man road have to do with Pukwudgies? That whole paragraph ought to be removed, don't you all think? --184.100.130.161 (talk) 11:56, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

how to pronounce it?
Just curious on how to pronounce it. --190.216.51.2 (talk) 22:09, 5 March 2014 (UTC)


 * think “puck” + “wedgie” but a “u” instead of the first “e”. 2601:447:C884:CEC0:14CA:7D46:E517:125B (talk) 04:10, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

More sources
There's more in the section of American Myths, Legends, and Tall Tales: An Encyclopedia of American Folklore including some I can't see that looks very useful. Two more sources with lots of other spellings.  Doug Weller  talk 16:20, 4 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Something I'd be concerned about is that one of the main citations is of a children's picture book written by the daughter of British missionaries. Not to deride Jean Fritz's work, but is this really the best source we have on these stories? 73.96.236.170 (talk) 16:28, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
