Description: In West Virginia folklore, the Mothman is a humanoid creature reportedly seen in the Point Pleasant area from November 15, 1966, to December 15, 1967. The first newspaper report was published in the Point Pleasant Register, dated November 16, 1966, titled "Couples See Man-Sized Bird ... Creature ... Something". The national press soon picked up the reports and helped spread the story across the United States. The source of the legend is believed to have originated from sightings of out-of-migration sandhill cranes or herons.
Description: Cryptids live mysterious lives, but that doesn't mean they haven't evolved to appreciate modern tech and trends like the rest of us! Of course Mothman would have a smartphone- he has to keep his social media updated too! His favorite place to check his messages is on the tops of tall buildings, where he can get great reception!
Description: This design features the iconic Mothman, the mysterious winged creature from urban legends, proudly holding a rainbow flag in one hand. The Mothman, known for his enigmatic aura and strong presence, is reinterpreted here as an ally of diversity and acceptance. Ideal as a gift for fans of cryptozoology and pop culture and members and allies of the LGBTQIA+ community.
