This book describes the creature dubbed "Mothman" by the press. Beginning in Virginia in the early 1960s, witnesses reported sighting a flying creature about seven feet tall with a wingspan of more than ten feet, glowing red eyes and scaly skin. It made a screeching sound, caused radio interference, and seemed to have some sort of mind control power. As reports continued, more powers were attributed to the creature and the legend grew. Critical thinking sidebars help readers decide for themselves on whether Mothman was real.
