Point Pleasant, West Virginia & MOTHMAN

Point Pleasant, West Virginia, is known as the place “Where History and Rivers Meet.” This is because the town boasts historical attractions that are unique to the area. — Point Pleasant is known for its Mothman Festival, an annual event held every third weekend in September that commemorates the 1966 Point Pleasant, West Virginia Mothman sighting, which gave birth to the infamous red-eyed winged legend.  People from all over the world gather around our charming Main Street to celebrate their favorite cryptid during this one of a kind event.
