The Mothman Prophecies

Journalist John Keel went to Point Pleasant, West Virginia, in 1966 to look into sightings of a winged figure that became known as Mothman. His book also covers lights in the sky, animal mutilations and odd warnings by telephone. Karin Tidbeck found it while working in a science fiction bookshop and calls it the perfect science fiction and folklore crossover, though they warn that Keel rants a lot.
