I reached out and touched....the Mothman...!!!

Did they make a chambered version?

Proper research shows that Mothman is chambered. Under those panels (which are no longer removable) are chambers widely believed to each contain mojo bags of various combinations of rare and poisonous herbs, roots, and berries as well the usual mummified dead frogs, toads, and spiders. If those chambers were ever opened, there is no doubt that Rod Serling would appear standing near the retro-camera shop submitting something for your consideration.
 
Little is known of the true history of the Mothman, although there is creditable research that has established it was not always in its present form, but has evolved and been reworked over its long and mostly hidden history.

At one point, the wood was part of a bass viol played by an eccentric and elderly German gentleman who played in various cheap entertainment establishments and public houses in Paris in the late 1800s and went by the name Eric Zahn.

This man was given to strange fears and suffered from debilitating bouts of insomnia despite possessing a creative genius in music composition and performance that would have destined him for greatness had he not vanished from Paris as abruptly as he first appeared while on his way back home very late one evening after playing at a cabaret show.

His last known habitation was a sordid rooming house on the Rue d'Ausiel, a location that must have been erroneously recorded since there is no known location in the entire history of Paris that has gone by that name.

No longer removable?! Someone ruined it!

Now how are you going to keep your weed in there?

Her name rhymes with a female body part....DELORES!!!
I always thought that joke implied that he must say the part referenced in a really weird way.
