Who is Mothman?

Who is Mothman?

Today Allen is traveling to the riverbanks of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, to unravel one of the most thoroughly documented and terrifying mysteries in American folklore: the legend of the Mothman. Beginning in November 1966—when gravediggers and young couples encountered a seven-foot-tall, winged figure with glowing red eyes that could keep pace with a car at a hundred miles per hour—we trace the thirteen-month panic centered around the eerie, abandoned World War II TNT plant. From high-speed chases and terrifying shrieks to the mysterious Men in Black, we examine the strange events that haunted the town right up until the catastrophic collapse of the Silver Bridge on December 15, 1967, which took forty-six lives. Did a terrifying monster stalk the Appalachian hills, or was this mysterious entity a tragic omen appearing to warn a community before disaster struck.
