Original news
The first Mothman sighting occurred on November 12, 1966, in Clendenin, West Virginia, when five gravediggers claimed to see a human-like figure soaring just above them in the autumn trees. Days later on November 15, in nearby Point Pleasant, West Virginia, a small city located at the meeting place of the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers, two couples both spotted a white-winged, human-sized creature with fiery eyes standing in front of their car headlights.
Steve Mallette was one of those witnesses. “It was like a man with wings,” he recounted to the Point Pleasant Register. “It wasn’t anything like you’d seen on TV or in a monster movie.”
Another witness, Roger Scarberry, described the creature as having red eyes about two inches in diameter and six inches apart. Scarberry said that had he seen the creature by himself, he wouldn’t have said anything, “but there were four of us who saw it.”

Famous creatures
There are a huge number of different living organisms on our planet. According to recent estimates, the number of species of organisms on our planet is approximately 7-10 million. However, only 15% of the data are described today.
According to the calculations of Canadians, 2.2 million species live in the world's oceans, 6.5 million on land. There are only about 7.8 million species of animals on the planet, 611 thousand fungi, and 300 thousand plants.
Deliberate falsification
This version includes any falsifications that imitate unexplained phenomena both from the outside: practical jokes, flash mobs, fake news, witness fraud, staging, etc.
There are many ways to make something similar to a ghost or a flying saucer from improvised materials, without using video and photomontage.
Many homemade things made for the sake of a joke, a practical joke or a direct imitation of a mystical being or event can be taken as unexplained not only in photos and videos, but also in reality.
