Mothman spreads wings tonight

Mothman is the name given to a being or creature reported in the Charleston and Point Pleasant areas of West Virginia between November 12, 1966, near Clendenin, and December 1967. Most observers describe the Mothman as a winged man-sized creature with large reflective red eyes and large moth-like wings. The creature often appeared to have no head, with its eyes set into its chest. A number of hypotheses have been presented to explain eyewitness accounts, ranging from misidentification and coincidence, to paranormal phenomena and conspiracy theories.


The Mothman Car Chase

Last spring a TV crew from A&E’s “Paranormal State” TV show was over in Point Pleasant shooting up the place for an upcoming episode that shines a light on the bizarre Mothman stories.
That up-coming episode is hitting the air at 10 p.m. today and at 2 a.m., Tuesday, March 4.
