Huge Winged Humanoid Observed Gliding Above High School in Irving Park, Chicago


In June 2016, a witness observes a huge winged humanoid gliding over the Carl Schurz High School in the Irving Park neighborhood of north Chicago.

I received the following information from the witness 'TS' in reference to her sighting of a winged humanoid in June 2016.

TS was driving north on N. Milwaukee Ave at W. Addison St. in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood at approximately 8 am local time. The Carl Schurz High School was upcoming on the her right side. She then noticed the winged being gliding above the school, which she believes is 3 stories tall. TS had just dropped her son off at another school, which was located nearby the sighting location.

TS says that the being was huge, at least 10 feet tall in length and the wingspan was probably twice that (15-20 ft in width). The color was dark brown, possible black, but against the sun. The wings looked fleshy like bat wings, so they were a little lighter than the rest of the body, like what a bat's wings look like when you stretch them out in front of a light.

She referred to the 8/22/2011 photograph taken 63rd and Pulaski Rd in south Chicago and stated that the shape was very similar.

TS said that the winged being was definitely humanoid-like with legs and thin elongated body. It seemed to glide and hover, not flapping its wings during 20 seconds or so that she observed it. The size of this particular winged being is by-far the largest reported to us so far. Lon





NOTE: In the late Summer of 2011, reports of Mothman-like flying humanoids began to surface in the city of Chicago. After three brief sightings, there were no further accounts. Then unexpectedly in early 2017, a smattering of encounters emerged from different locations throughout the Chicago metro area; until the number reached near fifty sightings before the end of the Summer. The currently number of viable sightings reported has reached 105...and it continues. We are determined to find the truth.

Since October 2019, the majority of sightings / encounters have been reported at O'Hare International Airport and the surrounding communities. We need your help.
