Welcome to The Oddity Shop, Where the Bizarre is Always on Sale!  This week in the shop, Zach is starting a deep dive on everyone's Favorite Appalachian Cryptid...The Mothman.

Put on your detective hats as we navigate the eerie terrain of Appalachia, unearthing the fascinating tales of the Mothman and its impact on the locals. Be it the monster’s goofy gait, its chilling red eyes, or even the tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge, we’re leaving no stone unturned. You’ll meet the stalwart locals: Mary Hyre, the newspaper writer who brought the Mothman to the public's attention, and John Keel, the UFOlogist who joined her in documenting this supernatural saga, along with plenty others from Point Pleasant.

We tried to wrap it all up with a single episode, but there is just too much more.  So join us next week, as we present the other details of the Mothman Story and the oddities that were happening along side our favorite cryptid.
