A Portland, Ohio woman recalls her encounter with a mysterious winged cryptid that she eventually released may have been a Mothman after watching 'The Mothman Prophecies' film.
I received the following account:
"Hi. I guess I'll just jump into this story that I've only revealed to a few people. My extended family mostly lives along Old River Road (Rt 124) in Portland, Ohio. I practically grew up there and spent entire summers there as a youth. It was and remains a special place for me as I loved exploring the areas.
My aunt and uncle live on a hill overlooking the Ohio River and we have fished that area forever. I take groups of buddies every summer and we camp on their lower land and spend the night fishing. Some of us just go for the drinking and fun. There are all sorts of little gravel roads around that area and I know them all.
One evening, two friends and I decided to go walking. One of my friends hadn't had anything to drink but he chose to come along. We were just being loud and laughing since we were literally in the middle of nowhere. Suddenly I caught a light out the corner of my eye and off in the distance was what looked like a house with every light on. I was totally confused and my friends had no idea what I was talking about because it's just a house. There is no house there. As we were walking closer to the "house" something appeared 20 feet in front of us. We only looked at it for a moment before we all turned and ran full blast back to the campsite. In the light of day, I drove down the gravel road we were on and there was no house anywhere in sight as I already knew.
Some months later, a different friend brought a Mothman movie (The Mothman Prophecies) to my house to watch. Surprisingly, I had never heard of the Mothman. I was almost panic-stricken knowing this was the thing I saw. I immediately called my friend who was with me and told him to go rent that movie. He eventually called me back almost in hysterics after watching that movie. This happened almost 18 years ago and I still think about it at least once a day. I've never shared this account with anyone online and I'll assure you this really did happen." D
NOTE: I would be interested in any similar encounters. Please feel free to forward to lonstrickler@phantomsandmonsters.com. Thanks. Lon
