Today, December 15, 2017, marks the 50th anniversary of the Silver Bridge collapse. The Silver Bridge spanned the Ohio River and connected Gallipolis, Ohio to Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Take a moment to remember the 46 people who lost their lives on the bridge.
Point Pleasant is, of course, famous for the sightings of Mothman throughout 1966-67. That is why today also happens to be the publication date of a new book by Loren Coleman - Mothman: Evil Incarnate.
"'Loren Coleman has taken a hard look at one of America's most haunting monsters and discovered that it's more terrifying than we ever knew. Read this book now - before it's too late. You've been warned.' - Richard Hatem, screenwriter, The Mothman Prophecies
"Mothman: Evil Incarnate, by cryptozoologist Loren Coleman, is a brand new companion title to the late John Keel's The Mothman Prophecies (1975), which investigated the sightings of a winged creature called Mothman and became popularized in the 2002 movie of the same name starring Richard Gere.
"With new material by Loren Coleman, extensive annotations on each chapter of The Mothman Prophecies, a detailed Mothman death list, and a gallery of images, Mothman: Evil Incarnate comprises the most up-to-date information on Mothman phenomena. In addition to providing context to John Keel's cult classic, Coleman expands on the missing details from the movie, explores the deaths that followed the West Virginia incident, describes the recent Chicago Mothman sightings, and delves into the life of John Keel. This companion book should find its place on every Mothman aficionado and cryptozoology fan's bookshelf. The mystery continues…"
