Chasing the Marfa Ghost Lights | With Adam Stilwell
Filmmaker Adam Stilwell shares his experience seeing the Marfa Lights, and his attempt to find their source while accidentally driving to Mexico. His experience raises the same question that has kept this mystery alive for generations: what are people really seeing outside Marfa?
For decades, people have reported strange lights appearing in the desert outside Marfa, Texas. Known as the Marfa Lights, Marfa Mystery Lights, or Marfa Ghost Lights, these glowing orbs have been seen near Mitchell Flat and Paisano Pass, where they seem to hover, drift, split apart, or vanish in the darkness. Many sightings may be connected to distant headlights, atmospheric effects, and the strange visual conditions of the West Texas desert. But the story is not quite that simple.
