WINGED HUMANOID Flies Over Witness' Vehicle in Calumet City, Illinois

 

The witness was driving into Calumet City, Illinois from Hammond, Indiana when she observed an unknown figure in front of her. The humanoid unfurled its wings and flew over her vehicle.

"Hello, didn't think of reporting my experience until my sister told me I should report it and told me how. Didn't even occur to me what it could have been and was left bothered and unsettled for quite a while. 

It was January 14th of this year 2023. I was on my way to work so it was approximately 5:30- 5:45 am and was a light rain and dark. I was coming from Hammond, Indiana heading west on 165th which turns into 159th. I was between State Street and Wentworth Ave in Calumet City, Illinois. So when I saw it, I was now in Illinois after passing State Street. I was in the left lane and there was only 1 car in front of me in the right lane. This car was about 6 car lengths ahead of me.

This is a wooded area and I saw something alongside the car in front of me by the rear. As I said this is a wooded area and I am always watching for deer, raccoons, and opossums. I looked harder and watched and thought to myself is that a deer it's running fast! Then I realized there was no way it was a deer. It looked bigger. Like I said it was a light rain, dark, and had my wipers on. I started to speed up because I had no clue what this was at this point. As I got closer whatever it was went directly behind the car in front of me, suddenly had a huge wingspan, and went up and over my car. 

I talked about it for weeks telling everyone how it was very unsettling and it's all I thought about since that morning. I take the same route to work Monday-Saturday and am always on the lookout and haven't seen anything since.

It wasn't until months later my sister shared on Facebook that she found out if you go to Google Maps and search Mothman that the locations of sightings show up. At that moment it all clicked in my head and I literally said out loud "Holy sh*t it was f*cking Mothman!" My husband was confused and I showed him her post and he laughed.

But from that moment on I was confident and positive that's what I saw!" BM

NOTE: The direction to the location is a bit confusing, but it appears to be the wooded area before you reach a Cook County forest preserve west of Wentworth Ave on 159th St. There have been several sightings of these creatures in the overall area of Calumet City, Illinois and Hammond, Indiana.

7-FOOT-TALL BAT-WINGED HUMANOID Encountered at Pilsen, Chicago Overpass

  

A Chicago resident was in the Pilsen community visiting her ex-boyfriend. As she was walking through the overpass near S. Laflin St. & W. 16th St. she encountered a 7-foot-tall winged humanoid.

"Hi Lon, just got off with you on the phone this morning. Here is the location and story of where I saw the Mothman in Chicago.

I had just parked my car to see my boyfriend at the time (Pilsen community). It was October 2019. I parked almost 2 blocks from his building. It was really late and I was walking past the under of this bridge. Standing underneath reminiscing, I saw a 7-foot humanoid, with veiny, bat-like wings. Faced towards the wall, not directly staring at me but just standing. I got super creeped out so I started walking to where I needed to be. But when I look back I know for sure that I saw something very strange.

A couple years later, I remembered seeing that creature and decided to do some research. Turns out, many people in Chicago, even just a couple blocks away, have also seen this winged creature." AP

NOTE: I talked to 'AP' after calling me. A very forthright witness who still seems to be affected by the sighting, even though it was somewhat brief. 'AP' no longer resides in Chicago, but contacted me after I posted a request for more sightings or encounters. Lon

Interesting WINGED HUMANOID Reported in Wilmington, California Skies

 

A supposed winged humanoid is reportedly seen on several occasions in the skies of Wilmington, California. Is there any relation to the 'jetpack man' reported at LAX?

Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research team member Luis Castillo offered the following account:

Here's what happened.

My coworker was talking about having seen a weird creature. I asked him to describe it.  After which I showed him a pic of Mothman and if it looked anything like that. He said it did. I asked him to contact his friends and to show them the picture. They each separately agreed that's what they saw.

He told me about the following sighting:

2 years ago in the city of Wilmington, California. In this location is a huge ARCO refinery. 

My co-worker was with 3 other friends at about 2am in the backyard of his house just hanging out. 

Though not sure who saw it first, one of them looked up and happened to see this winged creature flying above them. I asked him if it did anything odd. He said no, except that it circled his group about 5 times before heading north toward the city of Torrance. Now, in that direction, is LAX, a major airport for Los Angeles.

I asked if he saw it after. He mentioned that they saw it again, but this time it was about 430am-5am. 

That it repeated its previous behavior except that it circled them about 2-3 times and flew off. This time towards the city of Long Beach. 

After which they didn't see it again. 

My co-worker then mentioned he thinks he saw it again 1 week later, but was unsure, so he didn't give any details.
