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:
"At the time of the incident, I was in elementary school. I was about 10 or 11 years old. My father drank a lot and during his drinking binges, there were times when he would not come home to sleep. I was very worried. I am the oldest of three siblings.
All of my life I have had paranormal and unexplained experiences. On this occasion, when my father did not come, it would be around 11 or 12 at night. I could not sleep and I felt the need to look out the window. I had a feeling of fear and when I looked out the window, I saw something in the corner of our wall that faced my back towards my room. I noticed that red eyes were staring straight at my window. They were big eyes, like those of a cat or a hare or an animal that reflects light with its eyes. These red eyes were not a reflection but projected intense red light.
I noticed that its head was like an owl. It was big for a bird and it was staring straight at me. I have seen many owls and that wasn't one. I felt an ugly fear because I felt that thing knew that I was seeing it. I felt my heart beat faster and my breathing accelerated like when a dog chases you in the street, I lowered my head when I looked back it was no longer there but I felt the sensation that that thing had jumped or flown and was up in the sky. It was black and had dark and long plumage that hung from its shoulders. It was hunched over and its head was semi-round. I didn't see any arms, just a dark figure hunched over and with bright red eyes, round and large.
I am currently 37 years old and the sighting occurred in Guasave, Sinaloa, Mexico. I currently live in the same place and I have never seen it again, but every time I see stories about the Mothman I know that it is the same thing that I saw." Eden Vladmir López Medina
