I’m guessing that in Point Pleasant the parents don’t use the threat of the “Boogie Man” to get their kids to be good.
I was there for two weeks. I overheard several references Mothman in casual conversations at convenience stores, gas stations, groceries ... it (he?) is apparently very much a part of the town’s culture.
Oddly enough, I had watched the Richard Gere movie about a month before going there ... didn’t make the connection until I arrived.
