Publisher's Summary

One of America's most famous cryptids alongside Bigfoot and the Michigan Dogman

From the small town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, in the heart of an abandoned munitions site, comes the legend that terrorized the people of West Virginia for over a year and has struck fear into many more across the globe. It was the legend of the Mothman—a creature with glowing red eyes, a wingspan of ten feet, and a scream that echoed through the night.

Sightings of the Mothman began in 1966, and soon, the town was plunged into a state of terror. People reported seeing the creature everywhere—in the woods, on the roads, and even perched on the rooftops of their homes. But what was the Mothman? Was it a creature from another dimension, a harbinger of doom, or just a figment of people's imaginations?

In The Mothman of Point Pleasant, I dive deep into the mystery of the Mothman. Drawing on eyewitness accounts, historical records, and my own extensive research, I try to uncover the truth about this elusive creature. As I delve deeper into the mystery, I uncover a web of different accounts that lead to the very heart of the Mothman legend. What did I find?

I find a lot more than a costumed character from a movie. I unveil a phenomenon that has been reported all over the world for centuries. From the ancient Egyptians to modern-day America, the Mothman has been a source of fascination and terror for generations.

But what does it all mean? Is the Mothman a unique character in our culture created to fan the throes of capitalism or truly a warning of impending doom, a messenger from beyond, or simply a misunderstood creature trying to survive in a hostile world?

With its mix of history, mythology, and edge-of-your-seat storytelling, The Mothman of Point Pleasant is a must-listen for anyone who has ever been captivated by the mysteries of the unknown. It is a thrilling exploration of one of America's most enigmatic and enduring urban legends. So strap in, hold on tight, and prepare to be swept away by the incredible story of the Mothman.
