A Reddit user posted their thoughts on the Chicago Mothman phenomenon. What do you believe? Have you watched the recent Unsolved Mysteries episode 'The Mothman Revisited on Netflix?'
"Apparently, Chicago has a Mothman.
This first came to my attention a few years ago, when it was in the news that two O'Hare airport employees had reported seeing a man-sized flying creature with red eyes cruising around the runway. I guess if you're going to cruise around in the air, an airport's as good a place to do it as any.
Then, I found this - Chicago / Lake Michigan Winged Humanoid Regional Interactive Map
Somebody has plotted on a map 170 alleged sightings of a Mothman-like creature in the Chicago area, some of which have multiple witnesses, all of which have happened in the past 15 years.
It might be a really well-perpetrated hoax or ARG, but it's convincing.
The sightings started back in the early 2010s when the first several were reported on a blog called Phantoms and Monsters. Fair enough. A cryptid blog that perhaps has a vested interest in creating a belief in the supernatural in the Chicago area.
Then it gets weird.
The latter sightings are very detailed and convincing narratives claiming to be from people like airport employees, security guards, and union representatives who were staying in downtown Chicago for a unionized workers' conference.
Some of these accounts are written by narrators who sound so RELIEVED to have found the index of Mothman sightings because they thought they were losing their minds before finding out other people had seen the same kind of thing.
It's to the point that I'd be wondering if someone was flying a particularly well-put-together Mothman drone around the city, except that one of the most recent reporters was a security guard who claimed to have encountered the thing inside a building he was patrolling and said he saw it just dematerialize when it saw him looking at it.
The most recent sighting was just two weeks ago and is from a guy in a small town outside of Chicago." OO
