I was thinking what if Native American accounts of the Thunderbird who brings storms and death is actually the Mothman? Both have redeyes, wings, and are huge..............just a thought

I've never heard of the Thunderbird bringing death but I may be mistaken. If that is true then they both bring it. The Mothman is seen either before or after a deadly event, sometimes even both.

I had not thought of it, but I could definitely see a correlation. The Thunderbird could possibly not be attributed to death because of the population size of those communities and generally nomadic life style of Amer-Indians. The Mothman is generally "sighted" in more public places with a well established community and some important "civilized" structure: Point Pleasant, WV (Silver Bridge,) Chernobyl, Ukraine (Nuclear Reactor) etc.

The Mothman is at least to me the most fascinating crypto. I'm definitely going to look some more into the Thunderbird legends as I had not thought they could possibly be the same creature, not realizing the similarity definitely makes me feel like an idiot.

Nevertheless, good thinkin my friend.

It's very possible that the two could be one in the same. I might even say 75% chance that there the same thing. I have just have a 'feeling' that there not. but then again when I look at drawings of thunderbirds and then at pictures drawn of mothman it seems to connect the two together very well. All in all I don't know what it is.

There's a type of aniSgina called a Raven Mocker that is real similar to the descriptions of "mothman". Less than six feet tall, wears robes, shows up at times of strife, has glowing eyes, flies, tells you your future but only if it's bad.

Thats very interesting I wasn't aware of that Tom. After reading a description of this thing it almost sounds like a demon or possibly a vampire(only because of the way it acts). It sounds very scary...

OK i saw the movie a long time ago its the only reason i know the mothman story. After all the squatting all i can come up with is this this is the angel of death we're talking about here.

This is a bit of a strech so please bear with me.
just think about it he is an angel so he has wings and sure his eyes probably do glow red, we've never seen an angel that didnt glow somehow, and people that are about to die are the ones that see him.

i think he only shows up in places where humans dont have anything to do with thte looming tragedy, or else he defenetly would have been spotted in 9/11.

another thing about the mothman is why would he tell people who is going to die unless you could change it somehow. that would be a sadistic game wouldnt it.

well anyway sorry about going on like that, the point is i think the mothman is just the angel of death and those who stare at him get a glimpse of his intents

Great-granpa was Eastern Band. I grew up on Cherokee horror stories from that side of the family.

Mothman is a dead ringer for a Raven Mocker. Mockers do have that vampire thing going for them but they don't suck out your soul in all the stories, sometimes they just screw with you like this.

I've never heard of a mothman taking on human form. But I have heard some creation myths of Native Americans, and in some cases they have vampires...

Well, next time one of us runs into a Mothman, get you some green cedar tips and burn them. If the smoke drives off the Mothman like holy water and vampires, you got a Raven Mocker.

You have to have a pure heart too, though, so it might not work for me.
