The Mothman is an ominous creature that is reportedly seen prior to a large disaster. It is one of the most popular creatures discussed among Ark's ever-growing community of cryptid enthusiasts, many of whom desire to see this flying red-eyed omen for themselves in spite of the tragedy that may follow.
Catch a glimpse of the Mothman in the Cave as part of Creature Release Week.

Very cool! I love these.
sybil_howlett • 16 Jan 2019, 12:03 AM
Awesome š

I love the first stage so much it's so cute! ā¤ļø
magicaltomato3 • 16 Jan 2019, 12:05 AM
Are all the stages supposed to be shown? Or is it only for certain creatures?
mairbear • 16 Jan 2019, 12:08 AM
Yay first day I actually found one ^^ I think mine might be the first one found in cave too ā¤ļø But I saw that all the stages are published in archives page ... is that a mistake?
lazyanon • 16 Jan 2019, 12:10 AM
HECK YA
cupcakekitty12 • 16 Jan 2019, 12:10 AM
Found two! About time.... love the eyes ā¤ļø
pet_cemetery • 16 Jan 2019, 12:11 AM
It last stage looks less mothlike and more birdlike. Especially its feet and feathered wings
idol • 16 Jan 2019, 12:11 AM
I actually like it. Though I feel like final stage doesn't seem very "moth-man" like but I still actually like it š
idol • 16 Jan 2019, 12:15 AM
Was able to snag 2 so far ^^
anarchy • 16 Jan 2019, 12:19 AM
Dope creature. Good start to the CRW!
pet_cemetery • 16 Jan 2019, 12:23 AM
Surprising the name Phototaxis was not already taken (it when creatures are attracted or repelled by light)
Meteoroid • 16 Jan 2019, 12:37 AM
The final stage design references the Owlman, which is a similar cryptid from the UK, but I thought it would be neat to merge both the Owlman and Mothman into a single creature design-wise since I really love them both. Iām glad you guys like it!
inkpelt • 16 Jan 2019, 12:43 AM
This one is definitely my favorite! Love the color s and the eyes, so ominous!
mastergemma • 16 Jan 2019, 1:08 AM
Yucky moths, stay away from me!
idol • 16 Jan 2019, 1:30 AM
@Meteoroid Oh thank you for the clarification ^^ that's so cool!
sorrow • 16 Jan 2019, 1:41 AM
I think I love him
alyssa • 16 Jan 2019, 2:00 AM
Ooh I love moths, this is fantastic! The colors and glowing eyes make it a perfect mixture of creepy and cute! š
skyfall4 • 16 Jan 2019, 2:17 AM
Why have I never heard of this cryptid??? š±
metaphor • 16 Jan 2019, 2:23 AM
I really like it! Probably my favorite so far.
sparklefox • 16 Jan 2019, 3:13 AM
This one is pretty cool!
thedarkarcher • 16 Jan 2019, 3:17 AM
Oh my I love this sooo much definitely my favourite of the 3.
thedarkarcher • 16 Jan 2019, 3:41 AM
Just realised he looks like black manta in third stage š
sackname • 16 Jan 2019, 6:04 AM
I don't think the stages are supposed to be shown in the archives? Really cute nonetheless šø
vampire666 • 16 Jan 2019, 6:17 AM
Mothman?! Yes please!
prairie • 16 Jan 2019, 7:33 AM
I love the last stage. š Kinda wish it had a less literal name?? Like Mothawk or something instead of literally named after the actual cryptid.
prairie • 16 Jan 2019, 7:34 AM
BTW: @Ian, the archives shows all the stages, child teen and last arn't hidden
calenlass • 16 Jan 2019, 7:49 AM
I just knew some kind of bug would make an appearance. lol
katrinwolf • 16 Jan 2019, 8:22 AM
Cute fuzzy mothbirb š
foxbit • 16 Jan 2019, 8:35 AM
The first stage is SO CUTE! Even if I don't like moths.
mastergemma • 16 Jan 2019, 10:09 AM
@skyfall4 I thought the mothman was quite well known, maybe not as much as I thought it was! But it is the reason I am terrified of moths since I watched a tv show about mysteries and an episode featured this beast. Safe to say, I did not sleep that night...
sprite • 16 Jan 2019, 11:02 AM
Like this one. We went to the town to see the Mothman statue etc. It was boring but lovely little day trip tho.
love23bug • 16 Jan 2019, 11:38 AM
So cute! I think this is my favorite so far. š I wasn't able to get one yet, so if anyone has one to trade for a creature from the past two days, post on my wall please! ā¤ļø
bluestar1313 • 16 Jan 2019, 4:22 PM
woot woot got one... now just need that koala drop bear
wolfkit • 16 Jan 2019, 4:31 PM
YAY! ya'll better like some of this West Virginia history!
_piano_pokemon_ • 16 Jan 2019, 5:17 PM
i wonder if the next one will be Bigfoot or Nessie š
veritaspunk • 16 Jan 2019, 5:21 PM
@mastergemma They have some huge moths in Thailand, thankfully the one's I saw was in a glass case in an exhibit š± Ever see the movie The Mothman Prophecies ?
onomatopoeia • 16 Jan 2019, 5:30 PM
are the creatures from the past days supposed to still be available? I keep getting Hoddels, which is great, but not what I expected! It's my first CRW, so sorry it this is a newb question. š
Orderedchaos • 16 Jan 2019, 6:21 PM
@onomatopoeia Creatures from previous days will be available throughout the week.
alyssa • 16 Jan 2019, 6:38 PM
40 tries but I finally got one. XD Do previous days become a bit more common as the week goes on? I found so many Hoddels but on the first day I couldn't seem to get one, haha! Or maybe it's just me!
iris1929578 • 16 Jan 2019, 7:46 PM
Cool š
idol • 16 Jan 2019, 8:30 PM
@Alyssa I would say technically more common because since it is the first day so it will be available all week. So more people will possibly have Hoddel, compared to the other pets or the pet released the last day there are less opportunities to get it. š
dragrawr • 16 Jan 2019, 8:39 PM
i havent gotten a hoddel 3:
skyfall4 • 16 Jan 2019, 10:08 PM
@mastergemma Well, it's probably not that well-known in Canada- i asked a bunch of my friends and classmates, they all didn't know what it was, though some heard of it š Oof~ i always avoid watching things like that late at night D: I'm scared of the undead Dx
mastergemma • 16 Jan 2019, 11:10 PM
@alyssa @idol But keep in mind that the actual chance of finding one remains the same. You just have more days to find the earlier CRW critters
saturna • 16 Jan 2019, 11:30 PM
I've only found Hoddels so far...and a lot of them...
kudo • 17 Jan 2019, 4:10 AM
Everytime i see mothman, i think keith
icecloud101 • 17 Jan 2019, 7:40 PM
