Publisher's Summary

West Virginia, 1966. For thirteen months the town of Point Pleasant is gripped by a real-life nightmare that culminates in a tragedy that makes headlines around the world. Strange occurrences and sightings, including a bizarre winged apparition that becomes known as the Mothman, trouble this ordinary American community. Mysterious lights are seen moving across the sky. Domestic animals are found slaughtered and mutilated. And journalist John Keel, arriving to investigate the freakish events, soon finds himself an integral part of an eerie and unfathomable mystery.

Translated into over thirteen languages, John Keel's unsettling account of what he encountered in Point Pleasant has long been regarded as a classic in the literature of the unexplained. It is now the basis of a major motion picture starring Richard Gere and Laura Linney.

The Mothman Prophecies is also available in print from Tor Books.

Must listen to all interested in the Occult

Great starting point for all looking to learn more and understand more about questions they should be asking, and not what is obvious.

UFOs and MIB

While I enjoyed it I thought the content around the actual Mothman sightings were fairly limited. That said interesting to listen to the events around the sightings and goings on at that time

very disappointing.
Not audible fault, book was well read and performed. content was the issue. Struggled to finish
