Point Pleasant, West Virginia
Mothman
2013
Had a great group, first time being at Point Pleasant, West Virginia and let me say people there are awesome. I would say if you get the chance to go out that way and check it out.
It was awesome to check out a little town that has some history to it. Cryptology history Mothman stories started 1966 November 15. People started to report that they seen this creature around there area.
December 15 1967 something happen that would change things for everyone.
collapse of the Silver Bridge and the death of 46 people, giving rise to legends that the Mothman sightings and the bridge collapse were connected.
The town of Point Pleasant built a flood wall around the town, ( which sits higher off the river then Ohio side) and we was told by a local that they did that so they would not have to look and see where the bridge was built.
The Mothman museum http://www.mothmanmuseum.com/ is a place I have to say you need to stop at if you go to the area. It is well worth it doesn't cost much, and they have some awesome things to see.
The Hotel.....even though the movie was not filmed here, but in Pa still this town is a great place. Just a small town with more then the mothman history.
A great little pub we went to, had a great lunch I would say try the Mothman sandwich.it was more then good.
I would like to say thank you to all the people who took the time out to talk to us. Your town and history, people, and everything about the area was wonderful. Thank You
