The Mothman of Point Pleasant: Sightings, Prophecies & The Silver Bridge Disaster | Deep Woods Paranormal Podcast
Published 2 weeks, 6 days ago
Description
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.
TOPICS COVERED:
• The first Mothman sightings — November 1966
• The Scarberry encounter in the TNT Area
• John Keel and The Mothman Prophecies
• The Silver Bridge collapse and 46 lives lost
• Theories: supernatural, government, or hysteria?
Deep Woods Paranormal covers Bigfoot, cryptids, UFOs, ghost hunting, and the unexplained.
