Encounters with Flying Humanoids:
Mothman, Manbirds, Gargoyles & Other Winged Beasts

 By Ken Gerhard

Paperback: 240 Pages — Publisher: Llewellyn Publications (2013)

The fascinating stories of flying humanoids from around the world

A strange creature with gigantic, blood-red embers for eyes crept out of the dark in West Virginia. Dozens of witnesses reported seeing the winged beast―later identified as the Mothman―take flight, chasing cars at speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour.

Cryptozoologist Ken Gerhard has traveled the world collecting evidence on the Mothman, the Owlman, the Van Meter Creature, the Valkyrie of Voltana, the Houston Batman, and other strange "bird people" that have been sighted throughout history. Packed with famous historical cases and dozens of chilling first-person accounts, this is the first book to focus exclusively on flying humanoids―a wide array of airborne entities that seem to feed off our deepest fears.

Shipment to countries outside the U.S.A. will be sent First Class International Mail unless the package weighs more than 4 lbs. which will require a higher cost form of shipment. Again, other forms of international postage will only be used at the buyer's request because of high cost.
