As the result of the airing of 'The Mothman Revisited' episode in Season 4 of 'Unsolved Mysteries,' the producers collected reports from the viewers and forwarded the information to us.
The witnesses are being contacted to establish and confirm details of the sightings/encounters. If further information is received, it will be added to the report. We have received worldwide inquiries as well. The incidents specifically reported in the Chicagoland region can be found on the Chicago / Lake Michigan Winged Humanoid Regional Interactive Map.
The original report submitted:
"OMG! I have seen Mothman 7 times! I live in the 5100 block of N. Kenmore Ave. on an upper floor and my bedroom window looks over at the big black building on Lake Michigan! My roommate has called me crazy every time I told him that I thought it was an alien with wings!" R
I contacted the witness and received additional information:
The witness 'Ryan' stated that one night in early July 2024 he had gone to bed at around 8 PM (He has a shift job that begins early in the morning). At around 8:45-9:00 PM, he had awakened and was looking out his bedroom window toward the north. It was dark by that time. He was directed to the Park Tower Condominium located at 5419 N. Sheridan Rd in the Edgewater section of Chicago, Illinois
What caught his attention was the bright, laser-like red light that projected from the roof of the Park Tower Condominium approximately 6 blocks northeast of his location (5100 block of N. Kenmore Ave.)
When he looked more intently he observed a humanoid figure with wings standing on the roof, backlit by the lights on the building roof. As he watched, the humanoid unfurled its wings, quickly ascended off the roof, and flew toward Lake Michigan.
He described the winged humanoid as dark in color, about 7 feet minimum in height, thin-bodied, with a wingspan of 15+ feet total. The winged structure and type were not discernable.
He quickly felt a sense of fear, got out of bed, and told his roommate that there was 'an alien' on the tall black building north of them.
Ryan states that he has seen the winged humanoid several more times since the initial sighting, always seen standing on the Park Tower Condominium roof. The intense fear swells in him each time he has observed the being. He had never heard of the phenomenon previous or after his sightings. Ryan was relieved that his sightings were now validated after watching the Unsolved Mysteries episode and reading my reports.
I found Ryan's testimony to be very credible. Attempts to capture a photograph have been futile since the sightings are at night and at a 6-block distance. Lon
