A teen boy and his adult sister encounter an upright red-eyed winged creature standing on the road in the dark early morning. The witness believes that it was similar to the Chicago winged humanoids.
"I don't really believe in any cryptids though the idea of them is fun, except for Mothman. Around the time of these sightings in mid-fall 2017, I lived in a small town in southeast Michigan (Oakland County) and was attending high school.
My older sister, who is nine years my senior and had a similarly timed work schedule, drove me to school extra early every morning so I could attend an extra hour and fit another class into my schedule. It was awful and started at 6 am, but we only lived about 15 minutes from my school so it wasn't all that bad of a drive.
One morning we were making our way to the school as per usual through some super curvy wooded back roads by our house (a route we took every day). Suddenly, in a break between the section of road we were on, just between the third curve and the last curve before the road straightened out, I noticed two glowing red spots about maybe 600-800 feet in the distance. At first, I brushed it off as the area was known for deer and the spacing for eyes wasn't too far off, but I couldn't shake the wrong feeling I had. The eyes just weren't the right color to be reflecting deer eyes and, as we neared closer, it became apparent to me that if these indeed were eyes. The figure was far too tall to be any type of animal I could think of. It was still really dark out so I was only able to make out the eyes and a dark black silhouette before.
As our headlights were finally near enough to begin illuminating the figure it took off into the sky like a literal 'bat out of hell.' It moved incredibly fast and before it took off the dark silhouette expanded significantly in a manner that was incredibly similar to how birds use their wings to take off. Before I could hardly register what had just happened it disappeared over the treeline and out of sight. At first, I was worried I was seeing things however as I looked over at my sister. I was met with a mirror of my same shocked expression. She asked incredulously if I had just seen that too and we began conferring about what we just saw. I was relieved to hear that I wasn't going crazy as she described the same things I had also just seen.
I still think about that morning to this day and was surprised when a couple of years after it, I came across your articles and reports. A lot of the sightings and encounters you compiled dated around the same time. I saw what, I believe more and more every year, had to be Mothman." P
