The Mothman Prophecies

De: John A. Keel

Narrado por: Craig Wasson

West Virginia, 1966. For thirteen months the town of Point Pleasant is gripped by a real-life nightmare that culminates in a tragedy that makes headlines around the world. Strange occurrences and sightings, including a bizarre winged apparition that becomes known as the Mothman, trouble this ordinary American community. Mysterious lights are seen moving across the sky. Domestic animals are found slaughtered and mutilated. And journalist John Keel, arriving to investigate the freakish events, soon finds himself an integral part of an eerie and unfathomable mystery.

Translated into over thirteen languages, John Keel's unsettling account of what he encountered in Point Pleasant has long been regarded as a classic in the literature of the unexplained. It is now the basis of a major motion picture starring Richard Gere and Laura Linney.

The Mothman Prophecies is also available in print from Tor Books.

The Nature of Human Perception

Keel's The Mothman Prophecies is a book that explores the unknown--human consciousness. The theme of the book is clear from the beginning. Keel is more interested in the root causes of phenomena than the evidence. And the cause, for him, lies somewhere in the mystery of human consciousness and perception. It is a fascinating read. If you like pyschology and parapsychology, this is the pinnacle.

Loved it!

Beautifully written by Keel and beautifully read! If you're interested in the paranormal or aliens, this is a great book for you!

good stuff

my first completed audio book really good stuff here not sure how much I believe of it but interesting non the less

Really great book, despite some messiness

I thought this book was very interesting. Keel presents a lot of fascinating ideas, though at times it can become a bit messy structure wise. However overall I still really enjoyed this book and got a lot out of it. I would definitely recommend this to people interested in paranormal subject matter.

Great book

This is my favorite UFO book and I've listened to most of them. This is the best narration I've ever heard. A perfect package. Don't miss this book. It's not just the mothman story.

WOW!

This book had me from page one! Just when you think you understand it, another entity shows up... or was that the same entity I read about in the last chapter? Hmm...

I'm terrified of aliens

So I read this book to conquer my fear. It all seems so fantastic, I'm not sure I can believe (which really helped with my fear of aliens) I like the narrator and the subject kept my interest. I had never heard of this before and have not seen the movie. He is an expert at building conspiracy theories. I do wonder if it's true or if he's just a bit touched.

Great spooky stories that they believe are true

Worth a listen to! So many conspiracies and spooky stories in this. The Mothman is quite the creature.

Bananas

This book is absolutely bonkers. I adored it. The claims made in it are seriously bananas. Would listen again.

It makes you wonder what our reality really is

An amazing historical event, well read and presented. Thanks to everyone who contributed especially the author.
