Happy Birthday Mothman!

Thanks to The Journal for the heads-up that this month marks the 43rd birthday of Mothman: who is perhaps my favorite piece of West Virginia folklore.

If Wikipedia is accurate (which is laughable) his birthday was actually November 12, 1966, so I'm a few days late. Hopefully, though, this rather frightening "cryptid" won't hold that against me and show up rap tap tapping at my window tonight.

Since there aren't any gift guides out for "What to get your Mothman for under $20" I suggest reading the book or watching the movie, and just have a good old fright in his horror--I mean honor.
