Love And Other Bugs: Beyond The Mothman Prophecies

Mothman has been done. A lot. So here at the cabin in the woods, we said we wouldn't cover this weirdest of all cryptid creatures unless we had a personal take on it. So in this episode, we investigate extra elements associated with the Mothman mythos. In 1966 and 1967, the West Virginia town of Point Pleasant endured a 13-month period of seeming invasion by MIBs, UFOs, and a winged bird-like creature known as the Mothman. Writer John Keel immortalised this period in his 1975 book the Mothman Prophecies.
That much is known by most fans of the strange. So here we investigate:
-witness Linda Scarberry's love for a visiting Swedish UFO researcher
-an earlier British Mothman story from 1963
-how genuine was Keel about all this anyway?
-who were the Ultraterrestrials?
-the 2017 Chicago Mothman flap
-original newspaper reports of the Scarberry sighting
-the lasting legacy of the Prophecies within paranormal culture
