Something strange came to Van Meter, Iowa, in 1903.
For several terrifying nights, respected members of this quiet Midwestern town reported encounters with an enormous winged creature that moved across rooftops, projected a blinding light from its forehead, and seemed completely unharmed by gunfire.
As the sightings continued, fear spread through Van Meter. Armed townspeople patrolled the streets, mysterious tracks appeared in the earth, and a hunting party eventually followed the creature toward an abandoned coal mine—where they reportedly discovered that it was not alone.
Was the Van Meter Visitor an unknown animal, an extraterrestrial being, a supernatural entity, or simply the product of fear and mass hysteria?
