This episode covers the Mothman sightings in Point Pleasant and the subsequent Silver Bridge disaster.
In November 1966, the quiet town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia became ground zero for one of the most chilling cryptid encounters in American history. A massive winged creature with glowing red eyes — later called the Mothman — was spotted repeatedly over the next 13 months, culminating in one of the deadliest bridge disasters in U.S. history. In this episode, Matt and Amanda cover the full story — from the original Scarberry encounter in the TNT Area, to John Keel's investigation, the prophecies, the Men in Black sightings, and the Silver Bridge collapse of December 15, 1967.
