Mothman For about 13 months beginning in November, 1966, a series of bizarre sightings took place around the area of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Aside from a spate of UFO reports and claimed poltergeist activity, several witnesses came forward with descriptions of an astonishing creature that may have been the focal point of all the weird goings-on. As detailed in John Keel's classic book, The Mothman Prophecies, hundreds of witnesses allegedly saw a large, winged humanoid being. Here is how they described it: * approximately seven feet tall * a wingspan over 10 feet wide * gray, scaly skin * large, red, glowing and hypnotic eyes * able to take off straight up in flight, traveling up to 100 miles an hour * liked to mutilate or eat large dogs * screeched or squealed like a rodent or electric motor * caused radio and television interference * had some mind control powers. Dubbed Mothman by a local newspaperman, the creature seemed to have a peculiar affect on those with whom it came into contact: they began to "channel" information from what Keel called "ultra-terrestrial" entities. Keel himself was affected in this way, receiving "prophecies" from some unknown origin that were, more often than not, oddly less than accurate.
