After the airing of 'The Mothman Revisited' episode in Season 4 of 'Unsolved Mysteries,' I have continued to receive eyewitness reports of winged humanoids in the Chicagoland region.
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 are on the Chicago / Lake Michigan Winged Humanoid Regional Interactive Map.
"Hello. It has been a few years (June 2022) since that strange evening. I thought I would share our (my husband and I) experience now that it has been brought up again recently while watching an episode of "Unsolved Mysteries" on Mothman. Finding out that there have been a large number of sightings in the Chicagoland area has made me feel less alone.
My husband and I were driving down Kirchoff Road in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, heading home towards Plum Grove Road. It was a little after midnight when we left my in-laws' house to head home. It's a short trip of only about a mile, which we've taken thousands of times. This night was different.
As we got close to home, a very large winged creature landed on the road on the opposite side. It was dark, but we could see the massive wings that were larger than an SUV. The wings were spread out, and we slowed down and stopped the car. I turned on my brights and shifted the car more toward its direction to see what the hell it was. We didn't see any face, but we saw legs that looked almost human-like, and the biggest wings we'd ever seen. This was no bird. It was huge, and when I shined my lights on it, it shot up so fast into the tall trees and disappeared. It was strange how quickly it happened and how it flew back up into the trees.
We went to look further and turned the car around to see where this creature, or as we like to describe it, an "owl man" that was 4 to 5 feet tall with wings taller than its body. It was gone. Something that big should have been visible in a tree or around us, but it wasn't. We were shocked and unsure of what we saw. We talked about it that night, and I tried to convince myself it was some crazy-sized owl or bird, but my husband knew it was something different, something more.
After all this time, I never did any research as I felt in denial about what we saw, but our experience seemed similar to others. Reading that there was a similar sighting so close to us in Hoffman Estates a few years back, I now believe that what we saw is real and out there. I feel we saw the back side of this creature and could identify its legs, which were the size of a man's, not a bird's or even an owl's, but the wings were reminiscent of an owl's, just way too big to compare. I wanted to share our experience as others might have had this experience as well.
Feel free to reach out and let me know if u have any questions.
I had AI create a photo similar to what we saw as I attached to the email." A
