Book excerpt: Every year since 2002, over the third weekend of September, the town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia holds its Mothman Festival. But starting back in November 1966, locals reported dozens of disturbing sightings of a winged man near the Silver Bridge over the Ohio River. A little less than a year later, the Silver Bridge collapsed due to undetected structural defects right at the evening rush hour. Forty-six people lost their lives and nine more were injured. Mothman’s Vengeance offers a new perspective on an ancient Shawnee curse and ongoing mystery. When New York Detective Richard Cooper is found brutally murdered, Point Pleasant police search diligently for clues but come up empty-handed. As Richard’s only son Michael presses the police, he begins to remember childhood nightmares of a red-eyed spectre. Then he learns his estranged mother was killed by a hit and run driver. As strange happenings and disturbing phone calls mount around Michael and his young family, the mystery deepens. Safe only within the walls of his ancestral home, Michael must find the clue that will release the curse that has killed generations of his forebears.

Book excerpt: This fascinating book uncovers the history behind urban legends and explains how the contemporary iterations of familiar fictional tales provide a window into the modern concerns—and digital advancements—of our society. What do ghost hunting, legend tripping, and legendary monsters have in common with email hoaxes, chain letters, and horror movies? In this follow-up to Libraries Unlimited's Tales, Rumors, and Gossip: Exploring Contemporary Folk Literature in Grades 7–12, author Gail de Vos revisits popular urban legends, and examines the impact of media—online, social, and broadcast—on their current iterations. What Happens Next? Contemporary Urban Legends and Popular Culture traces the evolution of contemporary legends from the tradition of oral storytelling to the sharing of stories on the Internet and TV. The author examines if the popularity of contemporary legends in the media has changed the form, role, and integrity of familiar legends. In addition to revisiting some of the legends highlighted in her first book, de Vos shares new tales in circulation which she sees as a direct result of technological advancements.
