Mothman

The Mothman is the name and description passed on to an unusual being or creature, reported in the Charleston and Point Pleasant areas of West Virginia 'tween Nov 12, 1966, near Clendenin, and December 1967. Just about all observers depict the Mothman as a winged manlike beast with prominent mirror like blood-red eyeballs and immense moth-like wings.

The beast often appeared to have no head, with its eyeballs set into its chest area. A number of speculations have been laid out to explain all the eyewitness accounts, ranging from mere misidentification and happenstance, paranormal phenomena and even multiply conspiracy theories.  

There have been Mothman accounts from around the world as well, sightings at ill-famed historical incidents such as the 1986 Chernobyl accident and the 1985 capital of Mexico earthquake. It's been encountered in other places around the globe, most of the time right before major catastrophes. Evidently the supernatural beast best-known as the Mothman, appearances seem to foretell disastrous events.
