Mothman is a 7 foot ( 2,1 meters) tall, bipedal, flying creature; sometimes speculated to be an alien entity, due to the large amount of ufo sightings and mysterious light anomolies, which were reported around the same time. In West Virginia folklore, he was reportedly seen in the Point Pleasant area from November 12, 1966, to December 15, 1967 and is said to be have been periodically active across America ever since. In the late 1960s, Mothman hysteria gripped the tiny Ohio River town as dozens of people reported seeing a tall, winged, red-eyed monster and up until this very day the region is known for the strange sightings, making mothman one of the worlds most famous cryptids. It’s thought that the sightings foreshadowed the 1967 collapse of the Silver Bridge, which once connected Gallipolis, Ohio to Point Pleasant. Forty-six people died in the disaster, which was eventually found to be the result of a faulty eyebar. The Popular legend holds that the Mothman is a supernatural being who only shows himself to warn people of an impending disaster, yet despite his status as a harbinger of doom, many people go to Point Pleasant, West Virginia specifically to look for him. Since the events of the 60s his popularity has grown exponentially, with reports of him being seen at the scenes of disasters, such as the Chernobyl disaster of 1986 and the 2011 Japanese tsunami.
