Episode 8: Mothman and Other Omens of Tragedy

For this week's Monster Monday, we're delving into the story of one of my all-time favorite monsters/cryptids - Mothman.  Throughout history, there have been many stories of monsters and spirits that appear to warn mankind of impending tragedies.  These creatures and spirits are said to come about days before a tragedy, seemingly haunting the area and the people living near it, in attempts to provide a warning about the impending disaster.  Sometimes they might make a strange noise that serves as the warning, while other times is the sight of them that is said to be the warning.  Other times, these warnings come via the dream world, where the creature or spirit appears to people in their dreams, either showing them or telling them of the impending disastrous events.
