In the beginning we didn't feel threatened we felt as if something was reaching out to us for some reason, almost as if we were 'chosen' by it. We went back the next day to attempt to further communicate with the entity. We have always felt that whatever we communicated with at the bunker was some sort of ancient intelligence, which we believe to be connected in some manner to Mothman and the events that took place in Point Pleasant during the late 1960s. When did you decide to go back to the bunker to communicate with the Mothman? Simply put, there is no explanation for what we have experienced. Anything that happened to us and we attempted to debunk, we came up glaringly short. It defied any reason we attempted to place on the situation.Īs for the activity that followed, no, there is no possible way it has a rational explanation. The voice in the recording had no echo at all. If someone else was speaking from outside, we'd have heard the echo of their voice (just as we heard the echo of our own). We were completely alone, beyond a shadow of any doubt.Īlso, the way the bunkers are constructed in a dome shape causes the slightest sound to reverberate and echo. There were no other cars parked along the road where we parked, we saw no other people on the trail. The bunker is in a completely desolate area, with only one access point (which we used). This, however, would have been an impossibility. We attempted to explain it away via the possibility of someone having followed us and somehow managing to reply to our questions on the recordings. Our initial reaction to hearing the recordings was to somehow rationalize it. Have you ever had a moment where you tried to think up non-paranormal explanations to what happened? What were they? We found that our experiences mirrored many of those that took place in the late 1960s. There were also strange phone calls to some of the Mothman witnesses, visits from 'Men in Black,' poltergeist-like activity and rampant UFO sightings throughout the region. The events in Point Pleasant involved far more than the appearance of a winged cryptid. We hadn't heard about anything outside of the core Mothman sightings until our research led us to read John Keel's The Mothman Prophecies. When you started researching Mothman, what was the most interesting bit of information you discovered?īeyond comparison we found the most interesting aspects of the story to be those that weren't typically known. It had taken many forms at this point to garner our attention, but we now realized it was getting more physically aggressive. We knew it was another manifestation of the activity we had been experiencing. The night where the cabinet opened and dishes shattered, and then when the spoon wound up in your bed, what did you think at the time? Prior to capturing the initial recordings there was no activity of any form we led normal lives. When these things started happening in the house, did you connect them to the recording?ĭefinitely. We barely spoke a word to each other for the next few hours while we attempted to process what had happened. It's hard for words to capture the feeling we experienced upon hearing those first few words. When you first heard the words on the recording, what did it feel like? We've both had lifelong interests in the paranormal/unexplained, but this was our first foray into attempting an 'investigation.' Part of the allure that drew us to this area was the Mothman legend (mainly the Richard Gere film, The Mothman Prophecies), but also the American history that has taken place in the area as well. Have you always been generally interested in out-of-the-way adventures? We spoke with Jeff Drenning about the terrifying events depicted in Paranormal Witness Season 5, Episode 6: "The Mothman Curse." Catch up on Paranormal Witness on Peacock or the SYFY app.
