One night my girlfriend, her two sisters, and I went to see if we could see the light. I had been a couple of times before, but never had seen anything. We were there about an hour and a half without any visuals. We decided to leave, and as I was buckling my seatbelt, I noticed an orange colored orb (about the size of a softball) make a quick appearance in an arc motion. This motion seemed to mimic my hand motion of buckling my seatbelt. I repeated the motion several times thinking it may have been a reflection of some type although no light was present. It didn't appear again. Still thinking it may have been a reflection or my imagination, I asked if anyone else had seen that. My girlfriend answered yes and described it the same motion and color as I had seen. Her two sisters had been engaged in conversation and weren't looking and therefore saw nothing. I am hoping to return for a second sighting. S M Recently, my family and I decided to check this legend out. We did see the light down the gravel road, facing eastward. It just hovered above the road for several minutes. We also heard the howling of a pack of coyotes, at least that is what we deduced it to be. It was very loud, and sounded almost like screams. I would recommend going to anyone who truly wants to see something unexplainable. JW On 1 dark night my friends went to the "Spook Light Road" in hope to see the spook light. When they arrived at this road they got out of the van and started walking for about 1 mile down the road and into the woods going towards the light. And when they started to get close the light started to chase them and they started to run as fast as they could back to the van. As the light got closer they started to feel heat radiating off the light. At this point my friends were running as fast as they could and when they finally got back to the van, they put it in gear and got out of there in a heartbeat. As they were leaving they looked at each other speechless and scared. Im currently doing research on the spook light in hope to find out more about it, And solve the mystery of why it is there. JM I have visited the Hornet Spook Light many, many times over the past thirty years and only once failed to see it. I've observed the glowing ball of light hover between the trees and move down the road toward the parked cars. I have seen fingers of light seem to stretch outward from the ball which is seldom still. When viewed through binoculars it is seldom still and often pulsates. I have also heard the eerie screaming sound. In the 1970's, my cousins and I (teenagers at the time) decided we would leave the car and see how close we could walk toward the Spook-light. We felt very eerie as we walked along but when we heard a terrible, long, tormented scream we decided to return to the car. LS I have been to spooklight road three times. First time, I was seven and witnessed the spooklight travel down the road and passed through a car containing four people. The spooklight was visible in the car and it lit up there faces, it exited the back glass, the people that were in the car didn't see it travel through the car. They said it disappeared in front of the car and appeared at the back of the car. The second time, I was eleven and the road was so noisy because of all the traffic, we didn't see anything at all. The third time, I was thirteen and witnessed a ball of light traveling down the road, it grew big, then grew small, then big again and changed colors from yellow to green, to a soft red and white. I am now twenty-nine and can't wait to witness it again with my children. Post my stories if you would like and anyone that hasn't been there yet, should go!
