In the 1960's, the community around Point Pleasant was the scene of numerous alleged sightings of a mysterious winged creature with glowing red eyes, which came to be known as The Mothman. One rumor was that it had telepathic powers and warned people about impending tragedies. It was even reported seen on a bridge two weeks before it collapsed, killing 46 people. Newly popularized by the 2002 Richard Gere film 'The Mothman Prophecies', the Mothman is commemorated with a 12-foot statue in the heart of town, a small museum across the street, and an annual festival. A Mothman Bus Tour is also available.
