Rissa Miller is an editor, author, herbalist, seer, and storyteller. Her storytelling expertise stems from extensive research into the area of esoteric history, including ghosts, witchcraft, cryptids, and folklore. Rissa believes the most enduring stories teach us not only about humanity's past but also give us a reason to reflect on our own present beliefs and realities. Her approach to the paranormal involves in-depth historical research layered with first-hand accounts. Inspired by her first ghost experience in York, England at age 8 (it happened after a tour!), Rissa Miller became a history guide when she was 15. Her first gig was with at the Colonial Complex, still operated by the York County History Center. She went on to study at New York University's Tisch School and was an award-winning editor at the Baltimore Sun early in her career. Rissa is also a member of the Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research team.

In 2011, I received an account from an Ohio woman who had previously shared her intuitive experiences with me. This woman led a difficult life growing up, even though she was quite astute. It was also obvious that the family dealt with dysfunction, as you’ll hear as I get deeper into the story. Her parents, particularly her father, realized she possessed intuitive and psychic abilities. I believe that her father was also intuitive. The remarkable narrative may very well add credence to the Mothman phenomenon and, frankly, I have no reason not to believe the story. I have not edited the original text except for a few minor errors. I realize that the allegory is hard to follow at certain spots, but I wanted to save the integrity of the experiencer’s thoughts and emotions. This account resulted in quite a bit of feedback. Also, several listeners to this show have asked me to read this account.

In many instances, the creepiest and most terrifying accounts that I receive are experienced by drivers or passengers on the highways and byways. These can be sightings of cryptids, unknown anomalies, or any unexplained event. I have collected several interesting, as well as mind-bending, reports that are sure to pique the listeners’ imaginations and sense of trepidation. So, just sit back and imagine how you would respond to any of these situations. Maybe they will remind you of a sighting or an encounter that you have once had in the past.
