Interesting account of a Mothman type sighting in Tununak, Alaska on Phantoms and Monsters. This story has a Mothman is the devil angle. One witness tells of seeing, as a child, a man-like creature on top of his roof who had red glowing eyes and jumped high into the sky:

The Alaska Mothman: Dark Harbinger
On Monday (4/25) I posted an encounter with a Mothman-like humanoid in southwest Alaska. The witness stated that this was his first incident with the being and that descriptions of subsequent encounters would be forthcoming. To begin, I have again posted the first incident:

My first encounter with this thing most people call the Mothman was when I was nine years old and I remember it clearly like it was yesterday. I was walking back from my uncle’s place. I was walking on the sidewalk and I saw this man standing on top of my fathers house close to the edge facing west. He was all black he looked like a man. He stood about 7 or 8 feet tall. I shouted out at him but he acted like he didn’t hear me. I said “hey you…who are you?” I kept trying to get his attention…it was like I wasn’t there. But when I said “hey you’re standing on my house…who are you?” he looked at me for a few seconds.

Happy Birthday Mothman

Regan Lee — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 04:58:45 +0000

Loren Coleman at Cryptomundo writes about Mothman’s “birthday” — it was 44 years ago November that witnesses encountered the winged, humanoid creature in Pt. Pleasant, West Virginia. From Cryptomundo:

On November 15, 1966, the World was introduced to the phenomenon that would become known as Mothman. After the first sighting reported by the press 44 years ago in the papers of the day, soon a copyeditor in Ohio, a fan of the “Batman” series then on television, would coin the word “Mothman” because it fit in the headlines better. The sightings of a “Big Bird” had become a “big insect” with one copyeditor’s action.

Mothman in Germany?

Regan Lee — Sat, 25 Sep 2010 20:46:45 +0000

Phantoms and Monsters has an item, with photos, of a possible Mothman seen in the sky in Germany.

I love the red eyes on this thing, though I think it looks like either a balloon of some kind, or, photo-shopped/hoax, and lastly, possibly an insect of some kind but I doubt it’s the latter.

Should we be, as Lon at Phantoms and Monsters suggests, be keeping on eye on things to come in Germany?

Thanks to Lesley at The Debris Field for the link.

SyFy Mothman Clip

I managed to miss this movie. From this clip, not sure I missed anything great. Good looking Mothman though, with great red glowing eyes, but they have Mothman growling. I had to laugh at the last line: “At the end … Continue reading →

Loren Coleman Reviews Monster Quest’s Mothman Episode

Regan Lee — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 22:04:01 +0000

I saw it; have been looking forward to this episode ever since a producer from the show contacted me several months ago in preparing for the program. I think I put her off; for I went into an esoteric direction (a la Andrew Colvin, who, I noticed, the show did not mention) and she nervously-laughingly said she didn’t want the government following her, dismissing anything to do with all that. I didn’t think much of the program, even though Nick Redfern was on, which was great. But overall, didn’t think much of it and Coleman makes a good point: where was the historical background? However, of all the things that annoyed me the most was the inclusion of uber-skeptic (“I’m not a scientist, I have an English Lit degree, but I play one on TV” Joe Nickell) who smirked non-stop while gleefully cutting out plywood Mothman figures to test the accuracy of witnesses. This man has an intriguing fixation with owls; for, after all, not only are owls the explanation for Mothman sightings, owls are the explanation for the Flatwoods creature, and the Kelly Hopkinsville entities, says Nickell.

Here’s Coleman’s review on his blog Cryptomundo.
