Mothman is one of many cryptid enemy types found throughout the world of Fallout 76; however, finding him is a difficult endeavor as he rarely appears in the game.
How to find Mothman in Fallout 76
To find Mothman in Fallout 76 you will have to try one of the many places he tends to appear in the game; you can find Mothman at the following locations.
All Mothman locations in Fallout 76
- Pleasant point
- Random Butterfly Man Encounter
- Wisespring Resort Checkpoints
- The area south of Abbie's bunker
- Queen of the Hunt Event (Hunter's Shack)
- Between and around Wendigo Cave and Autumn Acre Cabin
- The Path to Enlightenment Event
- scorched earth event
- Anywhere a Cryptid spawns.
In short, your best options for finding Mothman would be during the Queen of the Hunt event and the Scorched Earth event. Indeed, Mothman tends to appear semi-regularly during both events.
For the Queen of the Hunt event, a Vengeful Mothman will sometimes spawn when a player restarts the event at Hunter's Shack in the mud. For the Scorched Earth event, a Scorched variant will appear occasionally, along with other Scorched creatures.

But in addition to events, you can also try your hand at finding other places where cryptids spawn, as it has been reported that Mothman sometimes spawns instead of the usual cryptids in the area. Along with that, we recommend trying both the areas south of Abbie's Bunker and around Wendigo's Cave and Autumn Acre's Hut.
