Point Pleasant is a small town in West Virginia, United States. For almost half a century, the town has been named after a strange creature. Tales of the half-bird, half-man ‘Moth Man’ still stand out in the town of Point Pleasant. Over 100 people have come forward claiming to have seen this strange creature, said to be over 7 feet tall with red eyes.
The events started in 1966. A middle-aged local resident has come forward claiming to have seen the strange creature, which the media described as the Moth Man, for the first time. While watching TV with his wife at home, the channel suddenly got interrupted. Then, while going outside, he heard some loud crying.
He compared the cry to the sound of a generator starting up or metal rubbing together. Today the dog was tied outside the house and was barking non-stop. He looked to the left where the dog was looking and was stunned. Two red eyes stare at him in the darkness. He screamed in fear and ran into the house.
The next day, the Moth Man appeared in front of a passing car in the TNT area of Pointe Pleasant itself. Buildings used to store war materials during World War II are abandoned in the TNT area. A woman in the car heard some crying and saw two bright red eyes in front of the car in the light of the headlights.
They saw the creature more clearly in the light of the car. The creature had a body like that of a gray hairy man.
The terrified motorists sped away from the deserted area, but were followed by the moth for some time. Meanwhile, their car was also scratched by moth man’s claws.
The car passengers went straight to the police station and narrated the incident. The story is that the scars on the car were shown as evidence. Then many came forward claiming to have seen Moth Man like this.
Eyewitnesses say the moth, which is a mixture of brown, gray and black, has a wingspan of 10 to 15 feet. Moth Man’s big red glowing eyes could be seen even from a distance. It was also revealed that some people heard the Moth Man’s cry.
Meanwhile, many stories started circulating around the Moth Man. Some said that the Moth Man was a terror creature and a warning of impending disasters. Others argued that the Moth Man would bring calamities.
This is due to a disaster in Point Pleasant a year after the first sighting of the Moth Man. The Silver Bridge over the Ohio River collapsed and 46 people drowned. Stories linking the tragedy to the Moth Man circulated widely. However, there have been no reports of sightings of the Moth Man since the tragedy.
At the same time, the Moth Man is generally considered a myth. It has been suggested that a type of large owl may have been used to spread fear under the name of the Moth Man. None of the photos purporting to be of Moth Man have been proven to be genuine.
However, Point Pleasant has become one of the favorite destinations for tourists and adventurers because of the Moth Man stories. Point Pleasant also hosts the Moth Man Festival every September, with a museum and statue dedicated to the Moth Man. This year’s Moth Man Festival was on Saturday and yesterday. Thousands of Moth Man fans gathered in Point Pleasant for the event. The Moth Man Festival brings together various competitions, market fairs and performances by Moth Man costumers.
