SPOOKSVILLE TRIANGLE
THE LONGEST LIST OF THE LONGEST
STUFF AT THE LONGEST DOMAIN NAME AT LONG LAST
The story of spooksville triangle.
Many people throughout history
have seen these strange and unexplained lights in the sky. This triangle extends
from Joplin, Missouri to Columbus, Kansas to Miami, Oklahoma. You can see these
extraordinary lights from highway 44 and many numerous other small country
roads.
One of the major points where these mysterious
lights have been seen is what is called Devils’ Promenade. This is very close to
the Missouri and Oklahoma state line on the Oklahoma side, just a bit away from
highway 44. The light in this area is better known as the Hornet Spooklight.
As far back as anyone can tell these spooky lights
have been scaring people since the 1800’s. No one has ever been harmed and
several people have tried to explain the phenomena including the Corps of
Engineers, but no one has been able to find a real answer to the lights that
mysteriously appear and disappear in this area.
Legends revolved around the lights also vary which
include:
-
A woman is still searching for her
missing daughter. During a heavy foggy night, a young girl went in search for
some stray cattle and never returned. Some believe the lights are from her
mother’s lantern when she went in search of her daughter, every night from the
night she disappeared.
-
The lights are connected to the
spirits of two Quapaw Indians that died in the area.
-
The lights are the spirit of an
Osage Indian chief that was beheaded on the Devil’s Promenade and the light is
his torch. He is believed to be searching for his missing head.
-
The last legend surrounds a miner,
Indians kidnapped his children and the light is believed to be the miner’s
lantern that you see while he is out searching for his kidnapped children.
No matter which legend is true. The lights are
there on a quiet and dark night as you glance into the darkness off highway 44.
