The Spooklight (also called the Hornet Spooklight, Hollis Light and Joplin Spooklight) 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. We set out to capture the light and found a few mysterious things along the way. A few of my subscribers reached out last year and said I should go check it out and make a video about it. I'm so glad I did. I hope you all enjoy!
I have been enjoying the short book, Missouri's Haunted Route 66, by Janice Tremeear. That is the book you see in the opening and closing of this video. Additionally, the voice over from 00:53 - 03:11 came from pages 120 - 121 of the book. If you would like to purchase a copy click here: amzn.to/3YFJhGX

rollercam.com - I have 10 Rollercam straps on my truck. They hold my ladder, fridge, power bank, Starlink, rug, jerry cans and more. I love a solid strap designed specifically for the task at hand. But the thing I appreciate most about Rollercam is how affordable they are. They could put the overland tax on their cams and people would probably still buy them. But they don't and to me that speaks volumes. I'm thrilled to be working with them again on this project. If you enjoyed the video make sure to let them know and send some business their way. They funded the production of this one.
