Another Spook Light Trip

A few nights ago, my boyfriend and I took my boyfriend's cousin and brother to the Spook
Light.  I am sorry to say they were altogether unimpressed.  They did get the crap scared out of them when a cow started running through the field next to us, they were practically in the car by the time we told them it was likely a cow.  Had a good time.

Spook Light Trip

I went to Spook Light last night with my mother. We have not seen the
Spook Light Llamas in a while. Hopefully they are ok. Last night was
also a full moon it was beautiful. Everything was so bright.

Spook Light Picture

The Spook Light is the white/yellow light at the bottom, the red light
at the top is a cell phone tower.

Spook Light Trip

This evening I took a trip with my mother, grandmother, and my
boyfriend. I got a good photo of the Spook Light along with the red
cell phone tower light. We saw two ambulances that pulled onto Spook
Light Road and almost immediately turned on their lights and sirens
then sped away, traveling west and out of sight. We also saw two hay
rides as it is the day before Halloween.

Hornet Spook Light

It is 6:20 P.M. and I am on my way to see the Spook Light. Hopefully
pictures will follow.

Almost Home!

Well if you've been wondering (and I doubt you have) I have been in
Washington D.C. Since September 29th and am nearly home now. Hopefully
I will be able to upload a few things soon. I now have video of the
infamous Spook Light Llamas, so we should be seeing that soon. I am
planning some other, more relevant updates so check in regularly.
Thanks,
Gen

Tonight /This morning

Wonderful lack of traffic, but also a lack of Spook Light. Only two
other cars to be seen. They get bored and keep driving around though.
Between midnight and 2:00 am seems to be the best time to go lately. A
cow keeps freaking me out.

Light tonight/ this morning.

Spook Light from atop the Jeep

Spook Light Road

E 50 Road is "Spook Light Road" S 700 Road is Stateline Road, and serves as the boundary between Missouri and OKlahoma. Traveling North from this intersection will take you up toward I-44 and Joplin, Missouri. Traveling West from this intersection will take you again toward I-44 but in a different location altogether, traveling faithfully through those roadways will take you toward Quapaw, Oklahoma.

The Spook Light Llamas, yes that's right llamas...

May 10 2008

A supercell wedge tornado came through Spook Light road as well as 3
counties in 2 states killing 20+ people
and devistating countless lives. There is a monument to those killed
at the intersection of highway 43 and BB highway.

Good Night Spook Light

Well I think it's time and we're going home. Iris road again, Gum is
more interesting but also more dangerous. The trip before last time we
came to Spook Light we stayed until around 4 am and on the way home
(and to buy breakfast) we spotted a guy welding! At 4 in the
morning!!?! We thought it was a road block at first because comming up
over the hill we could see flashing blue light.

Spook Light adventure

Well here we are again, wasting another perfectly good evening, and I wouldn't have it any other way. One thing I can't stand about comming out here early in the night, there is so much trafic. E 50 rd is paved but many of the roads around here aren't. I am still glad to come out though. We started out the night on the bridge but eventually moved to my old standby. We are all excited to see the llamas (I will try to upload pic later as reception is poor out here).

Spook Light trip tonight!!

Well it worked, the people we were with aren't comming, but I talked
my boyfriend into going. We are riding with my mom and her Ex in my
grandma's Caddy. As we ride down there I am amazed at the tornado
damage is evident even at night (my mom is the one that pointed it
out). My boyfriend wants me to quit typing now.

Spook Light anyone?

I am trying to talk my boyfriend into going to the Spook Light tonight.

Spook Light Trip

Last night I went to the Spook Light, and learned something new. My
best friend from high school came by with her boyfriend. I hadn't
seen her in a really long time and since we had all been there
together before; I suggested we go to the Spook Light and they seemed
to like the idea. Once we got there her boyfriend said he always sat
parked on the bridge (over Warren branch) facing East and the Spook
Light approached the car from the west once up to a distance of 15-20
feet from the car. It sounded promising but between myself not being
able to stay quiet and my boyfriend's impatience with the light in
general, we didn't see it. I will be trying this spot again soon.
Thanks!

Spook Light Visitors

1866 is widely accepted as the first reported sighting, the Hornett Spook Light is infamous in the four state region. There are as many different legends about the Spook Light as there are stories about sightings of the light. Around here it is not uncommon to find several generations of people with Spook Light stories. Some people even offer alternate viewing locations, E 50 road is the most popular spot but E 40 road is also a possibility. Sightings even occur further west near Devil's Hollow and Devil's Promenade bridge. I have even viewed the light looking east at this location.

Last night/ this morning

It was really foggy when I went to the spook light last night. We got
there around 2:30 and I finally gave into my boyfriend's demands to be
taken home at 3:55. Saw some strange stuff but nothing amazing. This
was one of the first times I had visited the Spook Light at this hour and it was pretty creepy.
