But the 2014 shooting of a black teen, Michael Brown, in Ferguson, Missouri by a white policeman shook the nation to its core. During Steele’s investigation of Ferguson, America was once again rocked by the brutal killing of George Floyd.

One of the most frightening of American urban myths is the legend of The Mothman, a red-eyed creature seen by some as a harbinger of doom in 1960s rural West Virginia, where sightings of the winged demonic beast were first documented near an old munitions dump known by locals as TNT. Many believe the Mothman to be a 1960’s phenomenon, an omen only appearing before tragedy, and disappearing after a flap of sightings and the subsequent Silver Bridge collapse in 1967. But what if there’s more? What if the origins of this omen trace back much further and go much deeper than anyone realized? And what if…the sightings never ended?

In 2017, Award-Winning Filmmaker Chad Calek announced that his forthcoming documentary, Sir Noface, would feature the world's first authentic footage of a full-body apparition, as documented by Sydney investigator Craig Powell during the only paranormal investigation in history to be officially sanctioned by the Australian Government. But after the release of Sir Noface, viewers around the world claimed that Powell's footage was not an apparition, but a misidentified extraterrestrial alien "Grey". As crazy as this may seem, Calek had secretly expected this response, as he and Powell had both experienced threatening encounters that suggested the potential of extraterrestrial involvement on a government scale. As the sequel to the Sir Noface documentary, Two Face: The Grey is the continuation of the investigation into the most compelling paranormal case in history, which reveals global implications that Calek and Powell could have never imagined.
