Nothing is Scary Anymore Except Real Life Part 1: The Mothman

Posted up    I’m doing a little something different this month. In honor of the Halloween season, I’m going to present a 3 part series about visits I’ve made to supposedly haunted or otherwise creepy places to hopefully answer this question: Is anything even scary anymore? I want to believe in the unbelievable. I want to believe that those orbs in the photo are ghosts and not flecks of dust. I want to believe that the mysterious lights over my town are UFO’s and not some douche testing the drone he bought instead of buying his kids new shoes. I want to believe but my skepticism is strong. Shall I waver? We shall see. Point Pleasant, WV is not a misleading name. Sitting at the confluence of the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers and surrounded by wooded hills, Point Pleasant looks like it could be cast in a movie about a football team with a can-do spirit who wins the state championship even though half the team has been mangled in an accident involving a pick up truck and a tractor.
