Summary
(Spoiler alert: this summary reveals plot details of the Chaosium adventure, The Madman.)
While travelling through the Rocky Mountains in their motorhome, the Miskatonic gang experiences an earthquake. The motorhome's undercarriage is damaged, and they have to stop in the small town of Wallace, Idaho (population 2,206) for repairs.
While in town, they learn that there have been sightings of the Mothman, a creature whose appearance presaged the destruction of the Silver Bridge, a suspension bridge connecting Point Pleasant, West Virginia and Gallipolis, Ohio.
On December 15, 1967, the Silver Bridge, a suspension bridge connecting Point Pleasant, West Virginia and Gallipolis, Ohio, collapsed killing 46 people. Spanning the Ohio River, this eyebar-chain bridge, built in 1928, met its fate during rush hour as people were returning home from work and families were going into town to begin their Christmas shopping. What caused this well-traveled bridge to collapse wasn't a mystery; a defect in one of the eye-bar links caused a crack to form which led to the catastrophe. The real mystery was the appearance of a strange visitor sighted several times by the citizens of Point Pleasant during the months leading up to the tragedy. This strange visitor was known as the Mothman.
