The Mothman Prophecies: DEEP DIVE

from Strangeology Hosted by Strangeology Podcast

In this deep-dive episode of Strangeology, we break down the original 1966–1967 Mothman sightings in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. From the red glowing eyes near the TNT Area to the terrifying car chase at 100 mph, we follow the timeline of events leading up to the tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge. Along the way: UFO sightings, Men in Black encounters, Indrid Cold, and the psychological and paranormal theories that still divide researchers. Was Mothman a misidentified owl? Mass hysteria? A harbinger of disaster? Or something far stranger? Nearly 60 years later, the Mothman mystery remains one of the most compelling unsolved cases in American folklore — and the deeper you look, the darker it gets. ----- Be sure to check out our website, strangeology.com and be sure to sign up to our newsletter!
