Sometimes you just can’t explain some things that seem truly impossible and in the realm of the terrifying, as is the case with what you may encounter on this lonely road in South Dakota. There is something here that is unlike anything else. No one really knows what it is or why it’s there, and it can only be seen from this road. That something is known as the spooklight, and it is truly mysterious.
The road in question is located out in the middle of nowhere within Miner County, South Dakota.

You can find it in between the tiny towns of Carthage and Fedora.

The road has been dubbed “Spooklight Road” by some of the residents who live near it.

The light itself appears as a bright white light that only shows itself at night, and only from this road.
Nikos Mouras/Flickr The light has been described as a spotlight-like beam that crests a hill and appear like an oncoming car - but no car would ever show. According to some accounts, it is bright enough that you can read by it.
As for an explanation for this light, there is none known yet. It simply is just there, and has been for a long time, and no one has figured it out yet…
