This mural is on the rear of a restaurant in Middletown, Virginia. It faces a small outdoor area and parking lot.
I think the bat-like creature is the legendary Mothman of West Virginia.

The front of the building does not look like a typical restaurant, and I learned that it was built in 1890 to serve as a bank.
The sign out front actually says “Appalachian Cuisine.” My first thought was, “What? Do they serve fried squirrel?” It turns out that that’s not on the menu, but they do serve fried catfish, venison, and a variety of unusual and gourmet dishes.
My first husband was of Appalachian heritage, and I learned to cook his favorite foods. They were not gourmet by any means.
What a nice find Linda, I like the little creatures in the mural. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals.
