  • "I am an absolute Grinch at heart, but Mothman learning to 'believe in himself' makes the holiday cuteness tolerable."

  • “Hopefully Mothman will return one day with further adventures.”

  • “[One] of the cutest things I have ever read. I have a niece being born in a few weeks and she has two half siblings and guess what they’re getting for Christmas?”
