HISTORY'S HOSTAGE
In this moth's-eye view across the convergence of the Ohio and Great Kanawha rivers, tiny Point Pleasant cowers at the
edge of West Virginia's green wilds. History links MOTHMAN to an old Indian curse on the town.
PERILOUS PROPERTY
Ready to swallow up the unwary sojourner, watery niches drenched with peril riddle McClintic WMA.
IS IT THE SOIL?
The Farm Museum near McClintic holds the skeletal remains of one humongous local horse.
STRANGE INSTALLATIONS
Dubbed "TNT" because of the munitions factories it once hosted, McClintic WMA is monitored above and below by
the United States Government.

HELL'S HOMEPLACE
A brush-choked maze of swamp and forest adjacent to Point Pleasant, MOTHMAN's reign of terror began here at McClintic
Wildlife Management Area.
McCLINTIC ROAD
This is the very road down which MOTHMAN chases cars. Industrial fallout in the background is often blamed for the MOTHMAN
mutation.
RISKY TRADITIONS
Despite the dangers, revelry still occurs in the spooky MOTHMAN backwoods, as this old beer box attests.

PROOF POSITIVE
Even in a world of debunkers there can be little doubt as to the subject this actual acrylic-on-plywood painting. Here
West Virginia's MOTHMAN displays the easy confidence of a partially-humanized insect who stands six feet tall and is capable
of achieving flight speeds in excess of 100 MPH.
