Every Archive comes with homework. The fun kind.
Before your Mothman file arrives, or after you have torn it open, here is what to listen to. Every episode plays right here on the site.
The Listening List: Archive 001
Sinisterhood, Episode 31: Mothman
Heather and Christie take on Point Pleasant directly: the 1966 sightings, the red eyes, and every theory from government experiment to sandhill crane. The perfect primer before you read the case file.
Find Episode 31 on Apple Podcasts · Show notes
Two Girls One Ghost, Episode 262: Indrid Cold, The Grinning Man and the Mothman Prophecies
The deeper cut. A mysterious grinning man warning of disaster while Mothman sightings climb and a bridge nears its end. Pairs directly with the Silver Bridge documents in your file.
And That's Why We Drink: the Mothman obsession
There is no single ATWWD Mothman episode. There is something better: a years-long love affair with the cryptid running through their whole feed, including the Cryptids Unscripted specials where Mothman receives actual slam poetry. Browse and play their episodes right here.

Bring a pencil
Your Mothman file is interactive. Hidden inside is a coded transmission and a Field Kit that walks you through cracking it by hand: find five clues in the story, build the cipher key, and decode the message. No app, no screen, just you and a pencil. Solve it and you earn Fragment 01 of the Season Cipher, the first of twelve pieces that spell out a members reward for the ones who finish the year.
Want more territory?
The Listening Room has playable feeds for every kind of case the Archive covers: cryptids, cold cases, vanishings, hauntings, and the sky.
