The Mothman Prophecies - Tapa blanda

A classic true story of modern horror...

This is the extremely rare 4th revised Illuminet Press edition, from 1992, which adds an Afterword by Keel that did not appear in the original 1975 edition.

For thirteen months, the town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia is gripped by a dark terror that culminated in a tragedy that made headlines around the world.

This is a story that contains all the elements of a modern science-fiction movie, except that every word is true, and fully documented by famed journalist John A. Keel.

Homes throughout the little town were plagued with unearthly noises and ghostly manifestations, while mysterious aerial lights traveled silently overhead - seemingly on a regular schedule.

Winged monsters and frightening apparitions terrified the population, as automobiles stalled and telephones and television sets ran amok.

A Red Cross bloodmobile filled with fresh blood was pursued along a darkened highway by a weird flying machine. Domestic animals were found slaughtered and mutilated in pastoral farm fields. Innocent people live in surrealistic horror, haunted by the fearsome "Bird," and besieged by legions of strange beings (some of whom arrived in black suits and black automobiles).

John A. Keel, world-traveler and noted Fortean investigator, spent over a year in Point Pleasant, where he saw and experienced many of the strange manifestations personally.

The Mothman Prophecies has been translated and published in fourteen languages, and is regarded as a major classic in the annals of modern parapsychology. It is guaranteed to shake your beliefs and concepts about reality. It will open your mind to things you never dared think about before. And it will scare the hell out of you!
