I live in a poor little town called Kittanning in Western PA. I hate living here. It's boring and dirty with no jobs or money. Yet for some reason, some movie producers came and saw that they liked how "quaint" it was. They're using it as the main setting in their new movie called "The Mothman Prophecies" which stars Richard Gere. I have yet to figure out what this movie is about so I figured that the think tank here at nitcentral could help me out. I've asked people around town and they say: "Well sir, it's about a mothman." (Did I forget to mention that people here are mindless dolts?)
So does anyone know what this thing is about?
Thanks

Mothman is a bird like creature creature in paracryptzoology and ufology who was sighted in the Ohio river valley about thrice or so in the 60's. The witnesses were creditable. The offical explanation is a sandhill Crane
From Wikipedia:
quote: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 Mothman was introduced to a wider audience by Gray Barker in 1970, and was later popularized by John Keel in his 1975 book The Mothman Prophecies, claiming that there were supernatural events related to the sightings, and a connection to the collapse of the Silver Bridge. The book was later adapted into a 2002 film, starring Richard Gere.
An annual festival in Point Pleasant is devoted to the Mothman legend.
