The Mothman

“Mothman” is perhaps one of the strangest creatures ever to grace the legends and myths of America. The creature is a cryptid said to have been seen in Mount Pleasant, West Virginia in the mid 1960's. The first newspaper report was published in the Point Pleasant Register dated November 16, 1966, titled “Couples See Man-Sized Bird … Creature … Something”.

The creature was first spotted by 5 men digging a grave at a cemetery near Clendenin, West Virginia. Was this really some form of mutant animal? Or could a more scientific explanation shed light on what these men thought they saw? Many others believe they too saw the Mothman creature, from firefighters to tourist. But could their fear of a large flying creature cause them to see something that wasn’t there?
