THE CHICAGO MOTHMAN. Though similar to it's cousin in West Virginia, this 'Mothman' is considered to be quite a different animal... Described by many as more bat-like, perhaps even more humanoid, gargoyle-like and even demonic. Reports of this creature first began in 2011. Seen by a growing number of witnesses to this day, this winged phantom seems to haunt the city of Chicago by night, swooping between buildings or hanging from lamp-posts... But are there more than one...? The one thing that catapulted this cryptid's 'Mothman-nickname' into circulation, was it's large glowing red eyes! This signed print edition measures 12" x 17" including white boarder for framing ease. Be sure to check out the other 'Cryptozoology' prints in the store!

THE BEAST OF BLADENBORO. As featured on the cover of DAVID WEATHERLY’s book - ‘MONSTERS OF THE TAR HEEL STATE - CRYPTIDS & LEGENDS OF NORTH CAROLINA. With a foreword by Joshua P. Warren. Published by Eerie Lights. The Beast of Bladenboro refers to a creature responsible for a string of deaths amongst Bladenboro, North Carolina animals in the winter of 1953–54. According to witnesses and trackers, it was likely a wildcat, but its identity was ultimately not definitively confirmed. According to reports, the animal commonly crushed or decapitated its victims, which were mostly dogs. On December 31, 1953, two dogs belonging to a resident of Bladenboro were found dead with a significant amount of blood near their kennels. Their owner reported that the dogs were "torn into ribbons and crushed". Various other animals were reported as victims of the velvet clawed creature's vicious killing spree... Most dying violent deaths with their jaws broken backwards or torn off entirely. Even a goat was said to have died with its head flattened! Descriptions of the beast itself range from a vampire-like mountain-lion, to a large, black sabre-toothed bob cat! The beast was never caught... This 12" x 17" print is signed in silver ink and comes with an additional 'wide scene' 8" x 11" smaller signed print also. All prints are shipped in batches on a monthly basis.

The MOTHMAN of Point Pleasant. In West Virginia folklore, the Mothman is a 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. The true events regarding the case of 'The Mothman of Point Pleasant' have since been covered in a full length documentary film by 'Small Town Monsters', of which this image was licensed for use as the film's poster. The movie is available to watch on Amazon prime and can be purchased on DVD via the SmallTownMonsters.com official website. If you're out at night in West Virginia... keep your eyes peeled... Or rather, keep your eyes 'John Keeled'! This print measures 12" x 17" untrimmed, signed in silver and delivered in a reinforced black tube! (Link in bio via website!
