Revision as of 18:02, 3 January 2017

Harris Steakhouse opened on Main Street, Downtown Point Pleasant in 1969 under the ownership of Carolin Harris.

The diner has served breakfast, lunch, and dinner to visitors from all over the world and has colloquially become known as The Mothman Diner due to its appearance in the motion picture, "The Mothman Prophecies" in 2002.

The diner set in the movie was actually modeled after the Harris Steak House, complete with decor and atmosphere.

It is also said that John Keel wrote much of his Mothman Prophecies book while in the diner.

The Harris Steak House is located on the same street as The Mothman Museum and Mothman Statue. It gets the most business during the annual Mothman Festival which Carolin Harris helped start and organize for many years.

Carlon Harris passed away at the age of 74 on Monday, December 26th 2016. She was a loving person and an active part of the community. She ran the Harris Steakhouse for 48 years.
