West Virginia's Mothman!

from Campfire Adventures Hosted by Dylan

We've reached an episode I've been waiting to do since we started this podcast. I know we cover stories of cryptids that scare and terrorize towns and even haunted chairs that are looking for souls, but what about a cryptid that's just trying to warn people who might be in danger? This weeks episode is about the one and only Mothman of West Virginia. He was only seen for a handful of times through the 1960's and more recently in 2016. But what could a creature that's described as a bigfoot sized moth want from a small town in West Virginia? Some say he was trying to warn the people of a bridge that was going to collapse and others say the Mothman was never really there. Whether this cryptid is real or not the people of Point Pleasant, WV created a museum and even started a festival to celebrate the sightings of the Mothman and also maybe in hopes to understand this cryptid a little more. Take a listen and let me know what you think.
