You make every vlog interesting. I have lived in WV most of my life. I was very young when the silver bridge clasped. If I recall correctly it was during the month of December. Many Christmas shoppers on the bridge that day. A very heart breaking event. I hadn't heard of The Moth Man until I was much older. One thing for sure there are a lot of mysteries in this universe. I find it interesting. Thank you for sharing.

My dad was a huge Elvis fan and he passed in 2008 at 49. Watching your videos makes me feel closer to him. He loved history. Thanks Jordan!

[@stillings1965]

Awesome video as always!! I've always been intrigued by the Mothman stories!!! I'm glad you got yourself a Mothman T-shirt too!! If you hadn't shown it at the end of the video, I was gonna ask!! LOL!! Have a terrific weekend Jordan & Jah!!!

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

My grandpa refused to take a photo with me in front of the statue

[@stillings1965]

@@DazewithJordantheLion I bet he thinks Mothman is a bunch of hooey!! LOL! 😄

Love the film about the Mothman with Richard Gere.

[@jessicafischerqueen]

Very good film

[@robind8784]

If you ever visit Point Pleasant again be sure to stop at the Village Pizza Inn and order a Mothman pizza.

[@janepettyblue]

We did

[@amandadavis4446]

I've been to point pleasant... They definitely embrace the mothman... Awesome vlog!!!

[@Natalie-ox7xm]

I lived in Ashland Ky. for a while which is right at the meeting point of Ky, Ohio, and West Virginia. I met someone from W.V. that said he had had personal experiences that could not be explained. Something in the woods, flying overhead with big red glowing eyes, following , flying above, as he ran away from it completely terrified. This vivid story came from one of the most dependable and level headed people I've met. He never exaggerated any story, in fact, most of his stories were pretty bland and full of details. I could tell for sure that what he was saying to me absolutely happened, and recounting it left a spooked and frightened look in his face and his demeanor seemed to change for the rest of the night.

[@davidellis5141]

West Virginia has the nicest highways of any state. They had a Senator who was majority leader for many years & always secured massive highway funds. The Mothman is real & he means you no harm. Respect him & he will respect you.

[@BHayes-jv2rz]

David Ellis I live in West Virginia and I agree with you I have always admired the beautiful scenery

[@chelsearae882]

The roads are awful in my opinion but the views are beautiful. I love my state🥰

[@lisaknell1809]

You were only 30 minutes from me! My former coworker has hunted on the old TNT property where Mothman was first spotted. Says that property is really creepy even during the day! There’s actually a Mothman Festival that attracts a lot of people.

[@scottieburnett5606]

Story telling at its best. Leave it to Jordan to bring us a quirky, intriguing myth.

[@suzanwahlquist3258]

I never heard of this 1 before very interesting first time I've ever heard it or seen the area really cool thanks for the good story

[@lyndac7511]

This certainly made me smile during my lunch break love it 💕

[@tommypizzo1677]

If you're still there you should check out the Lowe Hotel. Very interesting building with unique features. Lots of ghost stories too!

[@ingridolson8800]

How funny that I used to watch your videos in West Virginia (my home state) about Hollywood/Los Angeles, and now I'm living in Los Angeles while you do a video about West Virginia!

[@anneterri8960]

Good Morning Jordan. I've been to West Virginia as a child, but never heard of Mothman. Glad you are willing to brave the museum to show us. Amazing legend to be certain.

[@latishafarrar9757]

Your in my neck of the woods yay 😀

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

Hi Jordan, well, what an ornate statue outside the Museum. The statue reminded me of the creature from the horror films 'Jeepers Creepers'. Nice to see some original movie props from 'The Mothman Prophecies'. A very nice view of the bridge at the end. Great vlog Jordan.

[@redsdawn246]

This is a fascinating story. I liked the movie - The Mothman Prophecies - and didn’t know they had a museum dedicated to the Mothman. Thank you for sharing - and you’re right - he does have great abs. 😂😂

[@bucklebunny6661]

I remember watching that movie , it’s pretty interesting 🤔 I have a open mind & there could be other stuff out there . It’s just hard for people to wrap their minds around that stuff 👍🏻 Thanks Jordan for sharing Loves to Jah 😘♥️♥️♥️♥️From Colorado

[@sharynbitzer1430]

I grew up near this. Athens Ohio. I have always been interested in this. I even have a friend that just got off that bridge that day. Thank you for covering this!

[@karenstanislaw8912]

This country is dense with mystery and oddities, Jordan. Much thanks as always. Hug to Grandpa.

[@tigergreg8]

LOL, I lived in Kittanning Pa when I was younger, now in Pittsburgh. I was an extra in Mothman Prophecy. Met Richard Gere, and actually had or almost had an accident while filming, which Richard Gere witnessed and acknowledged to me right after. It was pretty fun after the fact. They used the Kittanning Pa bridge because it resembled the bridge in W.Va at the time. I'm just sad the movie didn't turn out as Mark Pennington, who btw, was a really nice guy to chat with during takes, had expected it too. It seems as though they cut too much from the movie and left people just wondering I think. All in all, it turned out to be a fun experience.

[@ndeep45]

Interesting that Robert Kennedy had sent a letter, I believe that in order to quell mass hysteria in the area was to deny the existence of any Manned spacecraft. Because of the times; culpable deniability was a thing that the government did, take Roswell for instance or possibly area 51. The mere fact they made a movie with big stars is pretty wild. I have heard of the chupacabra in Mexico and it was supposed to have some resemblance too. Nice Vlog Jordan

[@deniseconaway701]

Who knows, when people have given so many statements of seeing this red eyed creature, not all can be nutters, so in my mind who knows I’m neutral, really enjoyed seeing the museum, some of the images of this red eyed winged creature, you wouldn’t want to meet in person, you were right had quite a six pack on him obviously works out 😁, thankyou for this mysterious vlog Jordan x 👍🏻

[@sandrahunter5749]

My aunt,uncle, and cousin just drove across the Silver Bridge then it collapsed. They could've been killed.

[@oldermusiclover]

wow

[@mlm21]

I went last year and met Dan Bell. The line was long to the museum, so I never went inside. Funny enough wearing my mothman shirt I got as the festival last year as I watch this.

[@noelbrooks5939]

It really depends on who you ask on if the Mothman caused the accident or was just warning the town of something major. Most people I have talked to say he was warning them. I live in Southern Wv. I have yet to make it to the Mothman Festival. We were going to go this year, but it has now been canceled. So my fingers are crossed for next year. You and your Step Dad should come then too. I'm sure he would love it!

[@AmericanParanormal1313]

Jordan, this is awesome! I love yours and the Carpet Bagger’s video that deal with “cryptids”.

[@markblackwell9486]

Wow! You're in my backyard now!

[@mrAThiker08]

Welcome to my home state.....

[@n4pwx]

Jordan I just want to thank you for doing the story on the moth man. I live in Virginia about 30 minutes from the West Virginia line. I didn`t know there was a Mothman until you talked about it. Thank you so much sir.

[@melonyjohnson3470]

This is so awesome!!!! Thank you for coming to my beautiful home state of West Virginia!! Harper's Ferry is very historic and beautiful, you could vlog about John Brown's raid. I hope you enjoyed your visit.

[@Whittdocs]

You were so close to my area. I filmed a video on Chief Cornstalks grave there. Thanks for this. So awesome to see.

[@Gang155]

Love it! Whether or not it’s true, it’s interesting to think there is something out there. What a fun vlog!

[@briankesterson4365]

I hope you got a chance to see the Point Pleasant Rev. War battle site at the point as well as the beautiful art mural detailing the Rev. War and frontier history. If not; you need to go back! Thanks again for a great video!

Hi Jordan you did it again great documentary on the Mothman stuff I never knew ! Loved it !

[@Katwoman4318]

Thank you Jordan. Never heard of Mothman. Very interesting indeed. Thanks again.

[@purplenights1]

You should also Visit right next door in Virginia, The Homestead Resort from 1766, and the Jefferson Pools where Thomas jefferson came to relax in the mineral waters that supposedly had restorative and healing properties, both located in in Bath County, Virginia. Monticello,Thomas Jefferson's home in Albemarle County near Charlottesville, Virginia and Mount Vernon, George Washington's home near Washington, DC, the amazing Arlington National Cemetery and Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in the New World. Many people would really enjoy seeing these historic places.

I remember all the hype over UFO I remember there wa a rumor that all teens had to be in the house by the sunset the UFO s were coming to take teens . I remember being so concerned my older brother get in the house , and he was taunting that’s not going to happen. Finally mom saw my fear and all the neighbors went home . We had a great neighborhood of large families

The Mothman is one of my favorite movies. RICHARD Gere is riveting in it.

[@jbtharp9965]

Great vlog. I lived 5 minutes from there in 2012-2013, had my picture taken in front of "The Mothman" but never actually went into the museum, so, thanks for that. Also, there used to be a landmark mentioning where the Silver bridge was and at the end, I believe you showed the location bc another bridge was close by to it. Really enjoyed Jordan.

Darn would had love to meet you. I'm about 2 hours from there. At the time Silver Bridge happen i was living in Ohio. Heard my dad talk about that was the way they used to come down here. Later on i heard the tales of Mothman. My kids are big fans of the story. We also have the movie. Hope you enjoyed your stay here in West Virginia. Hope to you meet you some day!

Have never heard of Mothman.

[@Shady.Lady.]

Whaaaat! Im In Australia and even I’ve heard about it. You heard of Dogman?

[@rickdrais9737]

If you can locate a copy, there’s an outstanding documentary on DVD called “Eyes of the Mothman” that goes into great detail. I must’ve watched it ten times over the years. Everything from the actual sightings to the collapse of the Silver Bridge. Amazon or a used DVD/record store might be your best bet. Trust me, it’s VERY worthwhile and I’m sure you’ll be as fascinated as I was…and I just checked: it IS on Amazon!

[@alanroche3872]

I visited Pahrump NV the other day and I used your video to find the name of the cemetery that Art Bell was in. So I stopped by and paid my respects to Art! ;)

John Keel was at the first festival but he has since died. I have two copies of his book. One is a first edition. The photo of him was from the festival. My brother got his autograph and then told him the story about how I stole his book from our high school library. He found it quite amusing.

[@debbiesanders6374]

I live in Southern Ohio and have seen the statue it's so interesting. You should check out the lowe hotel it's located almost across from the statue, it's suppose to be haunted, should look into it very interesting. 😎

Great overview of Mothman and the Silver Bridge collapse. I've always wanted to see the Museum and this was fantastic! Mothman was spotted in downtown Chicago a few years ago too by quite a few people. Guy gets around! Now I'm possessed by the urge to visit the Museum's Gift Shop online and get some merch, looks like it's amazing stuff.

Spent many weekends during late 80's and early 90's searching the area for the mothman. We camped in the old power plant one night. A lot of strange things happened but no mothman ever spotted.
