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 at the Chicago / Lake Michigan Winged Humanoid Regional Interactive Map.
"2013/2014 in Rockford, Illinois: My husband and I were living at Beacon Hill Apartments off Linden Road. Our apartment was on ground level, with only one juvenile tree 20 feet from the bedroom window.
My husband had been working nights and I would be sleeping alone with the two cats. I would hear consistently between 3-4 AM a metallic tapping on the bedroom window. I couldn't sleep. I'd stay up until after 4:30 AM or so to make sure the tapping stopped. Then I started hearing "bees" in the bedroom vent. I maintenance check for bees and they said nothing was in there.
Sometime later on a weekend when my husband was home and able to sleep with me, I woke up and noticed what appeared to be a large upside-down bat with red eyes. I woke him up and told him to look. He said that he didn't see anything. Although my husband did hear the "bees" in the vent and the tapping on the bedroom window.
We just watched the 2024 Mothman episode which noted Rockford, Illinois. There were definitely negative vibes there. I grew up in the small town of Herrin, Illinois and my husband is from Antioch, Illinois. We only lived in Rockford from 2010-14, in the same apartment.
I have ruled out a person, foliage, trash, and animals for the noises. The huge bat in my doorway was a paranormal being. I figure if there are larger winged humanoid creatures, there are probably smaller ones. I only saw it one time, thankfully. I blinked and rubbed my eyes to make sure of what I was seeing before waking up my hubby. I covered my head and told myself it was nothing, but I saw something." N
NOTE: We have received reports from other winged humanoid witnesses that included other unexplained supernatural aspects of these beings, including observations of them in a home or other indoor location. As well, there have been a few instances when the being would simply vanish or manifest. The Rockford, Illinois area experienced several supernatural-related experiences involving the winged humanoids. Lon
