In the spring of 2017, the Chicago land area would find itself rocked by numerous sightings of a strange, 7-foot-tall, emaciated, humanoid with glowing eyes. While all claimed it had wings the descriptions varied from bird-like to bat-like to insect-like. The witnesses were just as varied, rich and poor, from police and loading dock workers to professional athletes and people just out walking their dogs.
Join Creepy Acres' resident Bigfoot, Sam Squatch, as he flies solo hosting this, the season one finale, and just as he is about ready to pull his hair out, he is joined by Laura Kram to discuss the Chicago Mothman with Fortean researcher, author, and publisher of the syndicated "Phantoms & Monsters" blog, Lon Stickler!
Lon Strickler is the creator of the exceedingly popular Phantoms & Monsters blog. He is also the author of numerous books in eluding "Mothman Dynasty: Chicago's Winged Humanoids " and "Winged Cryptids: Humanoids, Monsters & Anomalous Creatures Casebook".
You can find Lon Strickler and his work on his Facebook page, or the Facebook page for Phantoms and Monsters.
