Inside the Prophecies of Mothman

Selected Letters from Paranormal Witnesses and Researchers

De: Andrew Colvin

Narrado por: Teri Clark Linden

Spurred by the realization that the 9/11 attacks were accurately predicted - in 1967 - by a childhood friend who was seeing Mothman, Seattle artist Andy Colvin began filming a reality series, "The Mothman’s Photographer," documenting his experiences growing up in Mound, West Virginia.

Inside the Prophecies of Mothman chronicles the thoughts and feelings of several Mothman experiencers in the years immediately following the attacks (2002-2007). These revealing letters, penned during a wave of odd synchronicities, sightings, and encounters, indicate that Mothman may be a guardian angel of mind-bending proportions.

Interwoven with these personal diaries are replies and other posts from Colvin, which reach back into the mysterious history of the Ohio Valley, providing not only a fuller context for the phenomenon, but also illustrations of how the paranormal and the media work together to help form public opinion and belief.

In their thought-provoking attempts to figure out just what Mothman might be up to, Colvin and company look at every possible myth, legend, and conspiracy theory they can find, leading the reader on a wild, entertaining, and often poignant ride into high-strangeness.

Very good

Colvin is a top notch researcher. I’m surprised he is not more well known in this field. While I don’t necessarily fully agree with all of his politics, conclusions and perspectives, this did not detract from the overall work. Unique with quality reasoning. New ground. Recommended for sure.

Inside the minds of Conspiracy Theory Believers

This fascinating collection of letters is unlikely to convert any skeptics into believers. If anything, the bizarre leaps in logic and regard for "synchronicity" might dissuade believers. But the insight into 'researchers' minds is interesting and valuable. At times, however, their repetitive parroting of theories makes it difficult to continue.
Narrator Teri Clark Linden does an excellent job, differentiating each individual writer through slight accents or speech pattern without veering into cartoonish extremes. This narration makes the book worth listening to.
A small niche of readers like myself will love this book, even if most people may be uninterested. Full Disclosure: I received this product for free in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
