Chicago researcher of anomalous phenomena Manuel Navarette, who collects all the cases of meetings with the Moth Man in Chicago, said that he received new eyewitness testimony.
- It happened on September 12, 2017 at about ten in the evening, - says an anonymous witness, - I was walking from work on Millard Avenue to Little Village (a suburb of Chicago) and decided to drop into a store to buy small things. When I left the store, I walked down the avenue and suddenly saw in front of me what I took for a very tall man. But it had huge black wings and two brightly glowing orange eyes.
At first, for some reason, I thought that maybe it was just a big owl on the road, but the closer I got, the more I realized that it was a humanoid creature and it was about 7 feet tall (just over 2 meters), and I myself was 5.4 feet (163 cm) and this thing literally towered over me.
He just stood and looked at me for about 10 minutes and made a strange chirping sound. And at that time I was slowly walking right at him and thought that it was the Devil himself. I began to pray to myself. I kept walking because I understood that if I stopped, I would literally be paralyzed with fear.
When there was less than 20 feet (6 meters) between us, he suddenly yelped very loudly, as if he was trying to warn me, and the next moment he jumped up and flew towards West 25th Street.
I watched him disappear into the darkness of the night and continued to pray to myself, and when I came home, I started hysterical. I cried and my family did not understand what happened to me.
I told them everything I saw and my grandmother said that either it was the Devil himself, or Lechusa. The Lechusa is an owl-like bird-like creature from Latin American folklore. Grandma said that I was lucky and that prayers protected me from this creature.

That night I slept with the window tightly closed, the curtains drawn and the lights on. I am still afraid that this creature will find me and come for me. I pray to God never to meet her again.
Researcher Navarett confirmed that the girl at the meeting with him looked frightened, although when she told him this story more than two days had passed since the incident. The girl also said that she had previously heard stories in her Little Village quarter about a certain "Black Devil", who is called "Un Diablo Negro" here. That is, she was not the only one who met this creature.
The peak of reports of a meeting in Chicago with a black winged humanoid occurred in the spring of 2017. According to the descriptions, the creature is very similar to the famous monster Moth Man from Point Pleasant.
