Ive heard these stories for years and still I do not know what to think.. a book from my library many years ago had all kinds of stories in it. One I remember more than any other.
A man told this to a magazine back in the twenties.
He had fought in world war one. He was in a trench and his troops was getting bombared. This thing flew over them witch looked like a man with wings. He told it was creepy, reminded him of a huge moth human size. He said two other men witnessed it with him. They never told anyone till years later, the other men could never be found.. I figured maybe they did not survive the war..
What ever it is . seems to of started long before West Virginia..

naturalplane.blogspot.com/2011/01/flying-humanoids-poland.htmlMonday, January 17, 2011 Flying Humanoids: Poland In April 2008 I received a report of a possible flying humanoid sighting in Borne Sulinowo, Poland: An artist's rendition of the sighting On this particular day, Mrs. Izydora from Szczecinek, northern poland went with her husband on a trip to Borne Sulinowo area. The man parked their car and soon they departed. While her husband went toward the local forest, Mrs. Izydora decided to stroll amongst ruins of the local military base. It was about 1-2 p.m. Suddenly woman felt strange but decided to walk further. After a while she unexpectedly noticed in the mid-air some kind of semi-transparent entity. As she said, it looked like a “misty figure” of a man hovering several meters above the ground. Mrs. Izydora (71) could see its exact shape since the silhouette was outlined by whitish contour making it quite noticeable. For some time the witness remained as if paralyzed and unable to scream while the being was hovering nearly directly above her. It remained in the air in a distance of a few meters and kept its arms stretched “as if preparing to flight”. After a while of observation woman decided to retreat to her car parked nearby. Scared woman began her retreat to the car, but then she noticed that the being started to follow her and rapidly flew above disappearing in the nearby woods. Then woman called her husband and forced him to leave the place immediately. She told him about the weird incident two days later. Woman used a word “male” in description of the being’s appearance. As she told the being despite the lack of distinctive details of appearance had a solid and massive shape, resembling a tall man. It moved smoothly and without any sound. Mrs. Izydora said that the being seemed to be “misty” with a distinct outline. The whole observation lasted a few minutes but Mrs. Izydora couldn’t recall it exactly. Another interesting fact is some kind of possible influence of the witness physical condition. Mrs. Izydora felt weak but it isn’t clear if it was connected with the being appearance. The other feeling was paralysis which prevented her from calling husband. A strange feeling passed away as soon as being disappeared in the woods. As it is mentioned above Mrs. Izydora decided to talk about the incident after a few days. We talked to her after more than half a year after the encounter and she still was frightened. She told us that she never expected to experience such an encounter with something she could not explain rationally. Beside Mrs. Izydora is open-minded person she doesn’t want to come back to that place despite the fact that previously it was often visited by her and her husband. NOTE: The 'Flying Humanoid' phenomenon has be around for decades...but there has been more attention given to these reports since the more recent sightings in northern Mexico. Are these actual humans...or mystical anomalies (Witches - as suggested by some of the Mexican witnesses). Possibly a cryptid being or an alien entity? There are several references to these sightings throughout the Phantoms and Monsters site - just use the search tool...Lon

John A Keel wrote the book Mothman Prophesies and many other books that had to do with mysteries around the earth. I'm trying to get my paws on one he did called Our Haunted Planet and it has to do with aliens, mysteries and a lot more but I can't find it on the library circuit and it's not a cheap book. He did investigate the Mothman among other mysteries. As an update..the book has been posted online and what he has to say is amazing. Evidence of a superior race before the cavemen, his ideas on UFO's and other phenomena. He's an interesting and often funny writer. preterhuman.net/texts/alien.ufo/Keel,%20John%20-%20Our%20Haunted%20Planet.pdf

naturalplane.blogspot.com/2011/02/recent-mothman-sighting-near-cincinnati.htmlTuesday, February 01, 2011 Recent Mothman Sighting Near Cincinnati, OhioIt was about 8:00 pm and I was driving home after dropping a friend off at her house. I came to an intersection, a red light, and stopped. Nothing out of the normal, just a regular night. The roads were fairly deserted. While waiting for the light to change I saw something that looked like the back end of a deer as it quickly crossed the street. I didn't think much of it except for the fact that when I drive through there I have to be careful because deer apparently like to jump in front of cars. That stretch of road is only a couple hundred feet posted at 40 mph. I slowed to about 30-35 mph to watch and look at the deer. When I looked to see if the deer was still there I witnessed something quite a bit different. This massive thing was standing back a ways but it was clearly visible. The yard it was standing in has a huge white shed with a light attached to the front though, this didn't help because it cast a big shadow. The figure stood on the ground but its height reached to about the top of the doors to the shed. It had two curved like masses coming from the sides. But the most obvious feature were the deep red, glowing eyes coming from the center of the black mass. It was something I couldn't stop looking at. I continued to drive but all the way home I felt I was being followed. - Liz TO CONTINUE READING CLICK ON ABOVE LINK

Ok, that is just creepy. I wonder if this thing was looking at her as she was driving by, or looking at something in the yard it was in. The rest of the article didn't go into the details of what this woman saw.

naturalplane.blogspot.com/2011/02/update-mothman-sighting-middletown-ohio.htmlMothman Update/ Middletown, OhioThursday, February 03, 2011 The witness' rendition of the creature I received an update to this sighting including another related encounter. This creature (or creatures) may continue to visit in the area: Well, both my friend and I live closer to Middletown, OH. There was another encounter I had shortly after I had sent the email and I kept forgetting that I hadn't sent it. I had walked out of my room to wash my face, try and calm myself down, etc. and my brother's room is directly across the hall from mine. I looked straight ahead and it was looking right through the window of his room (that's the picture I had sent). I stared at it for awhile, feeling kind of cold and then feeling really scared and I finally pulled my eyes away and went about my business. When I came out of my bathroom, I didn't look in the direction of his room. My friend reported that what she saw had more oblique-shaped eyes and looked kind of 'angry' (I wasn't too sure about that hypothesis), while mine had large, round eyes and seemed kind of curious or something. Sorry I didn't include that in the original message; like I said, this happened after I sent the email and I keep assuming I had included it when I hadn't. Other than the weird sightings, there wasn't any strange activity I can recall. NOTE: I have found past reports from the general area including Sciotodale, OH, Portsmouth, OH and Byron, OH. Any updates will be posted here...if you live in the general area and have experienced strange activity or have seen something unusual, please feel free to contact me...Lon TO CONTINUE READING CLICK ON ABOVE LINK

I've heard stories of this mothman creature but I've never seen it. One of my friends said that he saw it once a long time ago. He told me that it flew across the road in front of his car late one night. He said it looked like a huge man with wings and a big head like a owl. Sounds spooky to me.

gralienreport.com/Mothman, Cthulhu, and Children’s ArtMicah @ 12:40 pm February 9, 2011 The creepy imagery that has become popularly associated with Point Pleasant’s infamous interdimensional/cryptid/alien/science-experiment-gone-awry, The Mothman, prevails in some strange places. We’ve seen it in books, film, and art, especially that of the late fantasy painter Frank Frazetta; but weird depictions that remind us of the winged one’s fluttering have even appeared in elementary school scribblings, too.

ufoclearinghouse.webs.com/apps/blog/show/6434713-a-possible-encounter-with-the-moth-man-a-very-spooky-sightingA possible encounter with the Moth-Man, A very spooky sightingPosted on March 16, 2011 at 8:28 PM I’m not sure if this is the appropriate time to come forward with this story seeing that the recent events in Japan are still fresh in every ones memory. I have been a follower of your website from pretty much the start; I have read your reports and have heard you online before. Naturally your site was the one I thought of first when this incident happened and I decided to write in and tell you what happened that night in early February. I was in Japan on business and had emailed a lifelong friend who was living in Japan and teaching English at a local school. He had insisted on my staying with him for the duration of my stay, saying it would help save me money and make my expense report look better when I turned it in. My friend (I will call him Tim for the sake of his reputation and career) was a lifelong bachelor and had a fairly large apartment all to himself and his cat. After several days of day long meetings and group seminars, we had decided to go out to get a bite to eat and take in the town. After a fairly large meal and hopping from one night spot to another we decided to go toward the ocean and check out the moonlight reflecting off the waves. My friend stated that he wanted to check on a biology station that some of his graduate students had set up near a large power plant. As we approached the plant from the west, we walked along some paths and came to a simple metal box bolted into the ground, from this box there were a myriad of weather vanes, and other meteorological devices. My friend stated the schools science class students had a theory that just like the water being used and discharged by the power plant was warmed by the production of electricity; the air around the plant was also being warmed and thus affecting weather and tidal patterns in the surrounding eco-system. It all sounded too complex and in my slightly tipsy and tired state was only able to grasp the bare bones of the complex theory he laid out. He finished up and changed the subject to something more jovial when all of a sudden we heard a loud and distinct “WHOOSH” at first my mind thought it might be the sound of the distant waves crashing ashore when we heard it again, followed by a ear pitching screech that shook me down to the bone and made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. We looked around for the cause of the noise, when we heard the sound again. The best way I can describe it is a city buses brakes when they are in need of service, Loud and ear splitting. We both continued to look around when my friend’s attention was drawn toward the plant by another nearby couple. A younger couple, out for a walk were staring toward the plant, arms outstretched and the obvious fear in their voice showing itself. TO CONTINUE READING CLICK ON ABOVE LINK

Wow. That is quite a story. I'm probably going to show my igannance here, but I thought that the moth man was only seen in, or around, Ohio/West Virginia area. Are there other stories of it being seen outside of this area..., or outside of the US?

monsterusa.blogspot.com/Wednesday, March 30, 2011 A New Winged Humanoid ReportStan Gordon, author of the book Silent Invasion (an excellent, regional study of Bigfoot high-strangeness), sent me the following report yesterday, which details a very intriguing new winged-humanoid report. Rather curiously - maybe even a classic case of synchronicity? - only mere minutes after I received Stan's email, the door-bell rang and it was the postman with a parcel for me. From Andy Colvin, it contained a copy of his latest book, The Mothman Speaks and a copy of the just-published, new edition of Gray Barker's Men in Black: The Secret Terror, which also focuses in part on Mothman. Anyway, I digress! Here's Stan's report, which I hope we may get further data on as the investigation progresses: On March 21, 2011, I was contacted by a witness who reported having an encounter with a very strange creature during the early morning hours of March 18, 2011. The incident occurred on a rural road in Butler County between Chicora and East Brady. The witness, a businessman passing through the area, stated that “this was the freakiest thing I ever saw, and it made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.” The man told me that he was driving down the road when from about a ¼ mile away, he observed something on the right side in a grassy area. His first thought was that it was a deer. The driver stepped on the gas to move closer to get a better view. From about 50 yards away, he observed something that appeared to be hunched down, and then stood up. The driver then observed a very tall muscular creature. At this point, the driver had his high beams on and watched as the creature walked in front of a yellow reflective road sign, then crossed the two lane road in three long steps and continued into a wooded area. What he saw was a humanoid figure that stood at least 8 feet tall that appeared to have smooth leather-like skin that was of either a darker tan or light brown color.

www.flickwiki.com/review-the-eyes-of-the-mothman-documentary/ Review : The Eyes of the Mothman DocumentaryApril 13th, 2011 My husband and I were flipping through our Netflix Instant options last night, and we came across a documentary that instantly piqued both of our interest. Especially mine, since I’d been interested in the Mothman legend since I read the crazy-suspenseful real life documentation story by John Keel, who has since passed away. It’s a shame the author passed, since an interview with him could have been extremely revealing for this documentary, and he would have surely been a more credible interviewee than some of the questionable characters they had intereviewed. Overall, the Eyes of the Mothman documentary is well done. It accurately portrays a lot of the stories that were share din the Keel book Mothman Prophecies, and it also shares some interesting and plausible theories, seeming to be open to various theories other than the strictly super natural.

www.ufodigest.com/article/strange-encounters-winged-creatures Strange Encounters with Winged CreaturesSubmitted by Dirk Vander Ploeg on Sat, 05/07/2011 Rumors about the “flying beings” have been circulating around the globe from time immemorial. Almost every nation’s fairy tales have a description of a winged creature that looks like a human being. It was not until a few years ago that researchers in different parts of the world began trying harder to crack the mystery of the flying creatures. American researchers became the first ones to show interest in the “flying humanoids.” The U.S. Air Force archives keep a report on an UFO filed by one William S. Lamb from Nebraska. Mr. Lamb was on a hunting trip near Hewbell at 5 a.m. on February 22, 1922. Suddenly he heard a strange high-pitched sound coming from above. Mr. Lamb looked up and saw a big dark object flying in the sky. Then it landed just like an airplane and started walking across the snow. The stranger was at least eight foot high. Mr. Lamb tried to follow the footprints but exhausted himself trudging through the deep snow. The archives also keep similar records about several amazing encounters that took place near the small town of Point Pleasant. On November 15, 1966, two young family couples, the residents of Point Pleasant, went astray while riding on a car to the country to see their friends. Dusk was falling as they were driving past an old mill. All of a sudden one of the women began staring open-mouthed at two red circles that shone brightly in the dark. The circles were about two inches in diameter and seemed to be hanging in the air. Then they started moving towards the car. The driver and passengers finally saw the eyes of a huge living being.

naturalplane.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-mothman-sightings-in-mertztown-pa.htmlSaturday, May 14, 2011 New Mothman Sightings in Mertztown, PA and New Miami, OHI received the following anecdotes as a result of my previous posts New Sighting of the Conewago Phantom and Mothman Sighting - Middletown, Ohio: Mertztown is in Longswamp Township in eastern Berks County, PennsylvaniaGood morning, As I sit reading this article, it amazes me that no one caught one of these things yet. I understand that if something with a 25-30 ft wingspan flies past you, you're not going to grab your camera as a first instinct. My son and I saw this monster thing last summer in Mertztown, PA. We were parked on the side of the road in a heavily wooded area when this thing casually glided up the road. It looked big enough to carry a full grown man away with no effort. When the wing flew over the hood of my car, we instantly ducked down. This thing had a round human sized head with no beak (hence the term man-bird), and huge bat-like wings. Now I would never tell this story if it wasn't for my 16-yr-old son sitting in the backseat who also witnessed it on that summer day. I'm a pretty capable guy, not too many things can shake me, but this thing scared the hell out of me. Here is what I saw: The body was 5-6 ft in length easy, wing span was 25-30 ft easy, no feathers, bat like skin, jet black, and a 4-5 ft skinny (rat or dragon) like tail that stuck straight out. This thing didn't fly like a bird, it glided about 10 ft off the ground at a VERY slow speed. After 50-75 ft of gliding, it took one huge flap of the wings, never changing elevation, and glided up the road till it disappeared into the woods. I'm convinced this thing lives underground, probably near some sort of hot spring cause it has no feathers. New Miami is in central Butler County in the southwestern part of OhioOn Monday May 9th, 2011 around 5:45am, I was on my way to work headed north bound in to the village of New Miami on Seven Mile Avenue. I left the traffic light at the southern most edge of town in to a dark stretch of road when a large flying creature swooped in over my car and snatched up a small animal in the road ahead of me at the edge of my head lights. As a construction worker, I feel I can judge the size of objects fairly well. This creature had a wing span of at least 12 feet and was jet black. It completely blocked the view out of my windshield and then some and moved at a very high rate of speed. I was traveling between 35-40MPH. It had to have been traveling at around 70-80MPH.

www.devilspenny.com/2010/10/report-of-man-in-bizarre-flying-contraption/New York Times12 September 1880 AN AERIAL MYSTERYOne day last week a marvelous apparition was seen near Coney Island. At the height of at least a thousand feet in the air a strange object was in the act of flying toward the New Jersey coast. It was apparently a man with bat’s wings and improved frog’s legs. The face of the man could be distinctly seen, and it wore a cruel and determined expression. The movements made by the object closely resembled those of a frog in the act of swimming with his hind legs and flying with his front legs. Of course, no respectable frog has ever been known to conduct himself in precisely that way; but were a frog to wear bat’s wings, and to attempt to swim and fly at the same time, he would correctly imitate the conduct of the Coney Island monster. When we add that this monster waved his wings in answer to the whistle of a locomotive, and was of a deep black color, the alarming nature of the apparition can be imagined. The object was seen by many reputable persons, and they all agree that it was a man engaged in flying toward New-Jersey. About a month ago an object of precisely the same nature was seen in the air over St. Louis by a number of citizens who happened to be sober and are believed to be trustworthy. A little later it was seen by various Kentucky persons as it flew across the State. In no instance has it been known to alight, and no one has seen it at a lower elevation than a thousand feet above the surface of the earth. It is without a doubt the most extraordinary and wonderful object that has ever been seen, and there should be no time lost in ascertaining its precise nature, habits, and probable mission. That this aerial apparition is a man fitted with practicable wings there is no reason to doubt. Some one has solved the problem of aerial navigation by inventing wings with which a man can sustain himself in the air and direct his flight to any desired point. Who is this adventurous flyer and what is his object? are questions of immediate and enormous importance. Of course, the first impulse of the unreflecting mind will be to exclaim that the mysterious flyer is an aeronaut who has invented practicable wings, and is secretly experimenting with then before making his invention public. This is directly at variance with the known habits and customs of aeronauts. TO CONTINUE READING CLICK ON ABOVE LINK

www.devilspenny.com/2010/08/bizarre-winged-creatures-terrorize-iowa-hamlet-1903/Awful Winged Form Shedding Dazzling Light Terrifies an Iowa Town (Special to The World.)DES MOINES, Ia., Oct. 4–The town of Van Meier, containing 1000 persons, is terribly wrought up by what is described as a horrible monster. Every man, woman and child in the town is in a state of terror, and fully half of them fail to close their eyes in slumber except in broad daylight. Friday night while the population was keeping the dreadful vigil every electric light in the city was kept burning to satisfy the most timid. The monster put in its appearance Monday night. U.G. Griffith, an implement dealer, drove into town at 1 A.M. and saw what seemed to be an electric searchlight on Maher and Grigg’s store. While he gazed it sailed across to another building and then disappeared. His story was not believed the next day. But the following night Dr. A. C. Olcott, who sleeps in his office on the principal street, was awakened by a bright light shining in his face. He grabbed a shotgun and ran outside the building where he saw a monster, seemingly half-human and half-beast, with great bat-like wings. A dazzling light that fairly blinded him came from a blunt, horn-like protuberance in the middle of the animal’s forehead and gave off a stupefying odor that almost overcame him. The doctor discharged his weapon and fled into his office, barring doors and windows and remained there in abject terror until morning. TO CONTINUE READING CLICK ON ABOVE LINK

mysteriousuniverse.org/2011/09/fantastic-flying-folk/ Fantastic Flying Folk![/color] Sep 26th in Bizarre & Featured by Nick Redfern Certainly, one of the most mystifying aspects of the strange realm of Forteana is that relative to sightings of flying humanoids. Now, when I say that, I’m specifically not talking about vaguely human-like forms that seem far more monstrous in nature – like the famous Mothman of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, or its transatlantic English cousin, Owlman. Rather, I’m referring to sightings of literal, flying people. Sounds strange? Of course it does! But, that doesn’t take away the fact that such “things” have been seen for centuries – and continue to be seen, too. A winged man was reportedly seen flying over Coney Island, Brooklyn on a fateful day in the late 1800s. Soaring across the sky towards the New Jersey coast, the flier, said witnesses – in memorable tones – wore on his face a “cruel and determined expression.” And from forty-plus years ago, comes an absolute classic. It was a warm summer’s evening in 1969 and Earl Morrison, a private with the U.S. Marine Corps, was stationed in Vietnam, sitting with two friends atop a bunker situated near to Da Nang, a port city which can be found on the coast of the South China Sea, at the mouth of the Han River. For reasons that Morrison and his friends could never really fathom, they all looked up, near-simultaneously, and, to their jaw-dropping astonishment, saw a strange figure crossing the night sky – and it was slowly coming in their direction. He said: “We saw what looked like wings, like a bat’s; only it was gigantic compared to what a regular bat would be. After it got close enough so we could see what it was, it looked like a woman, a naked woman.” The winged woman, added Morrison, was entirely jet-black in color, but seemed to have a greenish glow about her, too. As she closed in on the dumb-struck trio, and duly passed over them at a height of barely six feet, they could hear the distinct flapping of wings. Too astonished to do pretty much anything but sit in silence and awe, Morrison and his comrades simply stared for three or four minutes until the flying woman finally vanished into the darkness of the Vietnamese skies. The Coney Island and Earl Morrison stories have been reported and repeated on a number of occasions (such as in the pages of John Keel’s The Mothman Prophecies), and they still remain as fascinating and as bizarre as when they surfaced all those years ago. But, for my purposes, they are strictly scene-setting accounts for a far more recent and amazing case that, I suspect, very few will have any awareness of.

They wish LOL. I have to believe there is something to the oddities like Mothman, Jersey Devil and others like them. I still think that these might be slip overs from other dimensions. If string theory is more than theory..how hard might it be for some harmonics to 'slip' and we get some escapees. They might be playing host to people of ours who slipped through too..places like the Bermuda triangle. Sometimes a simple answer is the right one
