Mothman bad omen - 2 years ago
This is where the Men In Black got their name, they (MIB) come up with their comment names like the first MIB movie, its 90% MIB/UFO/etc and 10% Mothman, I love this book, there is first hand accounts of people saying that a Man in black doesn't know how to use forks and knives and tries to Drink jello, yes drink jello, and Natives coming to a house on a rainy evening with clean feet and telling the land owner that they want their land back and disappear, also when you see The Mothman then bad things will happen, he has been seen just before 9/11, the silver bridge collapse among other things
