Search For The Mothman
Posted by: Loren Coleman on June 18th, 2007

The David Grabias documentary Search For The Mothman – at least nine minutes of it – that is contained in the Deluxe Special Edition of The Mothman Prophecies has just appeared on YouTube. Here is the video below.
You will note, especially if you watch the entire documentary, that John A. Keel and I are the two major Mothman historians appearing throughout. (I don’t like the word “expert” much, or “talking head,” but then, I’ve been called worse.)
More importantly, I find the full-length documentary worthwhile because it contains archival footage from the time of the sightings and collapse of the Silver Bridge, as well as contemporary interviews with the eyewitnesses.


For more on these events, the movie, and more, see: Mothman and Other Curious Encounters.


Fascinating Loren – thanks for sharing it.
Having read and researched extensively on the subject my own humble opinion is:
If you believe the supernatural and paranormal are a part of the physical world then “Search For The Mothman” is worthwhile viewing. On the other hand, if you don’t believe in the supernatural and paranormal, then it is a waste of your time. As a member of the latter view, I would submit Mothman is nothing more than a gumbo of misidentified birds, impressionable witnessess and a manipulative promoter. (i.e. Keel, not Coleman.)
