Frontier History. Haunted Locations. Mothman. High Strangeness.
Battles, murders, drownings, river monsters, frontier superstitions, Chief Cornstalk, Men in Black, UFOs, and one of the most famous cryptids in American folklore all converge in a single small town along the banks of the Ohio River.
Long before Mothman spread his wings over Point Pleasant, West Virginia, the region was already steeped in tragedy, violence, and mystery.
Nestled at the confluence of the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers, Point Pleasant began as a rugged frontier settlement where Native American legends, early settlers, and soldiers crossed paths. The bloody Battle of Point Pleasant in 1774 cast a long shadow over the land. In the years that followed, the town witnessed river disasters, unsolved deaths, devastating floods, strange creatures, and countless tales whispered from one generation to the next.
Then came the modern mysteries.
In Point Pleasant: A Haunted History, author and paranormal researcher Sherri Brake takes readers on a journey through centuries of folklore, frontier history, hauntings, and unexplained phenomena. Explore the legends of Chief Cornstalk, haunted landmarks, ghostly encounters, river monsters, UFO sightings, chilling Men in Black visits, and the extraordinary events that transformed Point Pleasant into one of America's most intriguing paranormal hotspots.
Blending meticulous historical research with local legends and eyewitness accounts, this captivating volume reveals a town where the line between history and mystery has always been remarkably thin.
Some towns have ghost stories. Point Pleasant became one.
