I have an upcoming witness who has seen the light on two different occasions. The Spooklight (also called the Hornet Spooklight, Hollis Light and Joplin Spook Light) is an atmospheric ghost light on the border between southwestern Missouri and northeastern Oklahoma, a few miles west of the small town of Hornet, Missouri.
It’s an old mystery that has baffled locals and visitors alike for over a century. Since 1881, travelers on a desolate stretch of Ottawa County backroads have reported sightings of an enigmatic flickering light appearing over the countryside.
Known as the Spook Light, there have been several explanations offered as to its nature and origins, from extraterrestrial activity to the spirit of a Quapaw woman searching for her lost lover, but to this day no one knows exactly what this bizarre anomaly is or where it comes from.
