Not too sure about the veracity of that one mate.



Quote:In September of 2007, researcher Loren Coleman, who was a consultant on the Mothman Prophecies movie, posted an article on the blog Cryptomundo entitled "Mothman's Fate" in which he said "There are no records of Mothman at Chernobyl or Galveston or before any earthquakes. Since Mothman encounters did not happen in those locations, such unfortunate tales are ones that both [John Keel] and I tried to remove from people’s mental 'databases' as soon as the movie and documentary noted them in 2002."[2]

In 2008, in a posted titled "Galeston Mothman?", he insisted "This is poor myth-making ... The famed big hurricanes in Galveston occurred in 1900 and 1915, long before the Houston Batman was seen in 1953. The movie also tries to link Chernobyl’s nuclear meltdown with precursor sightings of Mothman. Not true. There were no sightings. It was all made up for the movie. Time to move on from these fictionalized additions to the Mothman story that keep distracting researchers from any real investigations of the Point Pleasant phenomena, whatever that might be."[3] He repeated this yet again in April of 2011 with the post "Yes, Chernobyl’s 25th Anniversary But No Mothman Was Seen"[4]. In 2012, researcher Micah Hanks wrote an article for Mysterious Universe [5] listing the supposed Mothman Chernobyl sighting as a misconception within Mothman mythology.

Loren Coleman and John Keel also pop up on this video and there's some really intriguing interviews with the initial eyewitnesses from Point Pleasant.
