@mrmsteck There are no trails there and they sometimes shoot directly over your head. I've had that happen. They have been there all of my life. There are native american stories about them from thousands of years ago. Definitely NOT cars.
@Shadowblood66 Well, the legend states that it was an old war between 2 Indian tribes and at night if the men never returned the women would go look for them, these lights were the torches they lit to find them, and the ones left have still not found the man of their family and will continue every night until they do.
@DillonMichaelPomeroy It was actually a slave that lost in the woods and his master went out looking for him. Hence the song, John Brown's Dream. Never heard of the Native American tribes in a war story.
I live near Wiseman's view, where a lot of people have seen what has become known as the Brown Mountain Lights. You can also see them from Burke County on highway 81. If you hike down from Wiseman's View you will end up at the Linville River in the Linville Gorge.

@patton303 I know right, 240p (progressive) actually, I wonder when people are going to buy a video camera as opposed to this piss poor video from phones we see so much of these days? I have actually seen better quality 480i (interlaced) from VHS. I have posted so many comments on the pages of sites my outrage referencing poor quality videos, but people just keep doing it, I just don't understand why. I am glad I am not the only one tired of this inexcusable poor video quality these days.
@hawkster1999 They can only be viewed by night vision camera's. If you try to use regular camera's or cell phone camera's, they won't show up or they are so crazy in their movement you can't capture them.
Im obsessed with these lights.Ive seen em a couple times but I want to see the huge orbs coming up off the river @ Wiseman's View.I actually plan to get married @ Wiseman's View.
Grew up very near here and have seen the lights a number of times. Got no idea what it is just know they are there. First time was with my grandfather in the seventies. He was in his sixties then and said he had seen them as a boy, too.
I've seen things like this in the Kings Mountain Battle ground on the border of north and south carolina. I saw it up close tho. Looked like a floating light orb. kinda spooked me a bit, but it never seemed to cause any harm. bout the size of a golf ball. Never fig'd out wat it was.
I saw these lights from the Caldwell county side at around five in the morning, the light was an orange-ish yellow light that pulsed erratically about 200m from the top of the mountain. The light was competing with the sun for my field of vision and the mystery light was considerably brighter during peak pulses. So bright in fact that it caught my attention from my driver-side rear view mirror as I rounded a curb. I'll never forget the sight since most locals have never seen them and I'm local.
I saw this case on "Fact or Faked" and couldn't believe it, because my uncle actually OWNS this property of Brown Mountain; the Brown's have been in my family for centuries. There's a log cabin that I go to every year here... always loved that place. Never once felt spooked, though, and hadn't heard of the Brown Mountain Lights until today.
@KatelynBromm Wait, how can your family be FROM here and NOT heard about it? I'm from Winston and I've heard about them since I was little. It's one of those local NC legends that everyone knows...
@pourthebubbly Touche! Yeah, I dunno why I've never heard of it... I'm a South Carolinian, but my uncle (my grandpa's brother) lives in NC. Used to go the the cabin house when I was little... guess it just never came up? I know that's a sorry excuse... I'll be up there in September, so I intend to ask my uncle all about it. And if he's never heard of it himself, then perhaps I have the wrong Brown Mountain in mind.
@KatelynBromm I can see that. There are a bunch of good NC-based ghost story and legend books that my dad used to read to us when we were little that give wonderful info about all kinds of legends. It's a children's book, but still a good read for those kinds of stories :) I wish I could remember the name of it...
@KatelynBromm i grew up hours form this place and knew about them. You have to be really disconencted from reality if you visit this place every year and know nothing about this.
@KatelynBromm How in the world could you live there all this time and not know about the lights? I've known about them all my life. My parents took me to see them when I was about 3 or 4 years old. Most people didn't talk about them back then because they didn't want the land disturbed. People keep moving into these areas and making a mess out of the mountains.
I've seen the Brown Mountain Lights. I wouldn't believe it either had I not seen these lights with my own eyes and no video will do it justice. It is truly amazing to see it in person.
This film of lights is kinda lame, as they can appear as orange to red orbs and they move, zip, shine on hood of car at Brown Mnt. overlook. Which means TO LEAVE. The more lavender and blue, the more calm. Take ya chances with Cherokee spirits but do so respectfully!
I've been researching this. I recon its radiating ore or light getting trapped similar to the northen lights. I'm not saying i'm right its just a theory :)
@theissywissy The lights are reflected from the inner Earth through huge caves system, then it scattered to smaller caves in the upper surface Earth. The Inner Earth is the domain of the alien Aryan race- Giants measuring 12 feet to 20 feet. It's the place where the Nazis & Hitler escape through opening at North pole causing Aurora Borealis coz of illumination from a small SUN in the center of Earth.
This is the underground base people mention near Morgantan NC. I found it by searching on underground US bases. The military has one of many bases in this area. People who say this is a hoax need to research underground bases and also where UFO sightings are. Open your mind.
I have seen these lights several times. There are records of sightings by the Indians as well as an explorer in the 1700s, RallohE, before you start making up reasons mabe you need to go to some research yourself.
ya ive seen them three diffrent times i guss ive been to wisemans view a couple hundred times ive even been in the senic way from black bear lake james when i grew up we had alot of partys in the parking lott but the winter time is best not many ppl around i local morganton band copperhead had a kewl song 25 yrs ago called browns gold about a yankee gold shipment stold and hid by the rebels in the hills of brown mtn
i was raised around the area and have seen the lights on many occasion but sadly this is not them. for one the are not tightly clustered , that big, and deffenetly do not cast out beams of light. this is a fake , which is sad cause it discredits the real lights.
I grew up in South Carolina and the three "big" ghost stories that we all heard about when we were kids were the Gray Man Ghost, the Swamp Girl and the Brown Mountain Lights. Thanks for posting
I live in boone Nc, we go out and see these lights every september and they are truly amazing, with the proper dose of LSD that is pahahahahahahahahahhah hgooooooooo ASU!!!!
@HitlerHimmlerHydrich thats what i was wondering! the lights have been noticed for over a hundred years but noone has gone and camped up there over night during september when they are most comonly seen??? why not??? there r lots of unanswered questions...
north carolina foothills area like morganton and valdese are home to some of the most racist bitch rednecks ever...i just want to go postal one day and make a big example with dead redneck bodies all around, i hate them that much...im asian , i know first hand how they are
im from north carolina...(iredell)... and i know ive seen these in the woods before too....not sure what they are but scared the hell outta me at the time....by the time you get to where they are their gone!!! wild man!!! wish id had my camera at the time!!! nice post!!
I saw something about this today on Weird or What, which made me watch this vid. They said somting about electro magnetic energy, or someting like that. but I do agree, this one looks like flashlights.
I've been there a few times trying to see the lights, but nothing ever happened. I do remember ATV's though on that mountain, so I think that could be a possibility.
I would love to be there and try to get as close as possible. Hell I would even camp over the spot I thought they were coming up. Doesn't matter if its legal or not I would attempt it.
@ghostman3331 That could be a good explanation however those lights have been recorded for the past 800 years by native tribes......and somehow I dont think they had access to fireworks.
@Blackheart12345 i know i went up there as a kid and tried to see them but my dad got afraid or ran out of whiskey and we left before it got dark enough it was a big letdown for me as a child because at 13 i was already deep into ufos devouring every book in the library on the subject in the early 70s i had missing time flying a kite i saw cigar flying away supersonic boom lights while playing baseball firey balls of light decending to earth all that stuff
I have seen them on several occasions, but not always right at Brown Mountain, sometimes down in Linville Gorge. Wiseman's View is the easiest place because you can drive to it. Difficult to access, but a closer viewpoint is from the Chimneys area near Table Rock. One night, I led a group of curious camping friends out there. Sitting on a rocky outcrop, gazing East at Brown Mtn., where I had seen them once before in the70s, to all our astonishment we clearly witnessed about a 10 minute episode.
Wiseman's view at linville gorge is the place to go. I see the lights almost everytime there and it always amazes me. And no they are not man made, unless man is flying above the tree line.
Nice capture. This may in fact be the real thing (which so many other photos are not.) Which exact mountain ridge are we seeing--Is this Linville Gorge, Chestnut Mtn, or one of the other sites?
Hi. My sister, cousin and I were chased by a ball of light in the daytime, roughly the size of a grapefruit, when we were kids in the Eastern foothills of Northern CA. The ball chased us a few dozen yards through my grandparents property, into their house and through several rooms of the lower level. I have not heard of these lights (Brown Mtn., Marfa) prior to tonight. Very odd to discover this!!
What color was it? Did it pass through a closed door or window or anything like that? What did your grandparents say? Have other people in the area spoken of strange lights? Fascinating experience.
@Kurridevilwing The problem with this conjecture is that no one really knows what ball lightning is. That is simply a term that has been used to describe this phenomena. There have been laboratory experiments that appear to duplicate it, however it has not been demonstrated that those are the conditions which produce the phenomena naturally. Some inconsistencies between this orb vs. the produced laboratory effect are that it did not "hiss", vibrate, spin, bounce, or burn.
I have seen the Marfa Lights , I have seen, chased, been chased by and approached by the Light Balls that haunt Bragg Road near Saratoga Texas. The closest one came(yes I paced it off after wards) 70 paces before it stopped and disappeared. It was a dull orange glowing orb about the size of a soccer ball.
Go back with a decent camera where you can set a high ISO setting. Something like a DSLR. That would be so wild to see something like that. Were you scared? Did the air feel different?
its not atv lights some are yellow some are blue they bounce all over the mountains from top to bottom and from mountain to mountain its something u have to see in person to judge because u just cant explain it i live like ten minutes from there
Have you seen them. I think my parents saw them when they went to school in Boone. We stopped at an overlook when I was a kid but I don't think we saw anything.
i've heard the legends...and heard also that this is a kind of lightning...ball lightning. anyone in the know about this type of explanation for these observations. no questioning there being some kind of interesting lights in this area, there's too many observers to chalk it up to 'white lightning'.
Retard, how can you say they are ATV lights, these lights have been seen for hundreds of years, US Scientist have witnessed them up close. You are an idiot, have you ever been to the mountains? you can hear ATV's across a valley, i have seen the lights more then 5 times, each time in the same spot, with no noise.
i was just there last night and got to witness this for the first time ... unless the "car" lights are blue and red then i think that theory is busted... not to mention they were at the top of the mountain above the tree's where no car could possibly be.
people have been seeing these lights for hundreds of years, long before motor vehicles.
In the early 20th century they tried to explain them as being steam locomotive headlights, but the lights were there before the railroad came into the area and are still there even though the railroad is now gone.
@mangeese yea that could be it? but its coming from diffrent angles at time, and in the start it actualy have a round shape with the lights? if its man made they shall be at least 20 guys to do this? :-) but yea? i really dont know what to think? it can be both? its an interesting Video:-)
@mangeese I don't find this video particularly convincing myself. You have to see the lights yourself, because current technology isn't quite capable of capturing the full range of human senses at their peak. What I saw defied explanation by me, but I'm guessing it's some sort of geologic or atmospheric phenomenon. Sightings date too far back and don't quite fit the bill to be cars, trains, or flashlights, and I doubt people like to camp all over that mountain every night.
I did research over the year since i last posted. Here are my findings,
For age's "Spook Lights" have been seen and reported hovering over the ground anywhere from several inches to several feet with only very few reports of tree top level sightings world wide. "With one of very few uncommon reports of "Spook Lights" that would slowly rise during sundown. The sighting took place on a lonely dirt road. this kind of report was rare and now these types of reports are more common.
Today reports of "Spook Lights" appear to be literally on the rise, at the tree top levels that is. The "Anti Gravity Grid" And the "Geometric Vortex" has been more active perhaps causing the lights to go live at higher altitudes. But i'll have you know the "Anti Gravity Grid" and the "Geometric Vortex" are both power sources ;)
UGH i spent 7 hours trying to get all this posted i am really pissed off about this but i had to get it on here.
There was so many issues with this it was unbelievably insanely maddening to the millionth degree it was litterally like being in hell for like 1 second.
If you speed up the video, the lights seem to be moving in a line...possibly a line of cars? I checked google earth at this spot, there is something that might appear to be a road there along the ridge.
However, if there is no road there, then that explanation is gone. Electromagnetic lights?
You know how u can clearly take a video of an airplane landing? and say, thats an airplane, U see? unless it doesnt take off or do something inexplicable, it would still be subject to belief. Although i believe its an honest video, it can easily be dismissed as a prank because Is not doing anything that you can say beyong the shadow of doubt. However; Skywatcher, Thank You
I'm not saying theres not anything out there, but if you have a deadline to make- sometimes the will overextends reality. If you know what I mean.
On Coast to Coast AM last week it was said that there are regular trips to that site and others to search for more on the murder or Pumpkin Man. I think they spotted one of these midnight forays.

PIEZO effect (aka piezoelectric).
Look it up (here on youtube).
Brown mountain is mostly granite.
Search google "brown mountain light USGS report"
(USGS = United States Geological Survey)
Must be lots of granite-grinding, unnoticeable amount of constant earth-shaking to create the piezoelectric discharge from that area.
See also St. Elmo's Fire.

Hi. My sister, cousin and I were chased by a ball of light in the daytime, roughly the size of a grapefruit, when we were kids in the Eastern foothills of Northern CA. The ball chased us a few dozen yards through my grandparents property, into their house and through several rooms of the lower level. I have not heard of these lights (Brown Mtn., Marfa) prior to tonight. Very odd to discover this!!

What color was it? Did it pass through a closed door or window or anything like that? What did your grandparents say? Have other people in the area spoken of strange lights? Fascinating experience.

@stringdream what you were probably chased by is ball lighting.

@Kurridevilwing The problem with this conjecture is that no one really knows what ball lightning is. That is simply a term that has been used to describe this phenomena. There have been laboratory experiments that appear to duplicate it, however it has not been demonstrated that those are the conditions which produce the phenomena naturally. Some inconsistencies between this orb vs. the produced laboratory effect are that it did not "hiss", vibrate, spin, bounce, or burn.

@stringdream That sounds like you may have had an encounter with ball lightning.

I have seen the Marfa Lights , I have seen, chased, been chased by and approached by the Light Balls that haunt Bragg Road near Saratoga Texas. The closest one came(yes I paced it off after wards) 70 paces before it stopped and disappeared. It was a dull orange glowing orb about the size of a soccer ball.

Go back with a decent camera where you can set a high ISO setting. Something like a DSLR. That would be so wild to see something like that. Were you scared? Did the air feel different?

its not atv lights some are yellow some are blue they bounce all over the mountains from top to bottom and from mountain to mountain its something u have to see in person to judge because u just cant explain it i live like ten minutes from there

Have you seen them. I think my parents saw them when they went to school in Boone. We stopped at an overlook when I was a kid but I don't think we saw anything.

I go to Wiseman's View all the time and they are not atvs or people with flash lights. The things that happen here are just flat out unexplainable.
losjarvis3000 2 years ago
i've heard the legends...and heard also that this is a kind of lightning...ball lightning. anyone in the know about this type of explanation for these observations. no questioning there being some kind of interesting lights in this area, there's too many observers to chalk it up to 'white lightning'.

Yes there is a small dirt road on that mountain (google earth 35 55'37.64 N 81 45'33.94 W)

Retard, how can you say they are ATV lights, these lights have been seen for hundreds of years, US Scientist have witnessed them up close. You are an idiot, have you ever been to the mountains? you can hear ATV's across a valley, i have seen the lights more then 5 times, each time in the same spot, with no noise.
packfan175 2 years ago
What colors are they? Are you scared when you see them? What's the closest you got?
ar4216 2 years ago
those arent the lights i saw up there..besides there are many atv trails there along with camp grounds..thats what those lights are from.

It could be ? Who knows, but I think there is some quartz in the area and also some fault lines.

i was just there last night and got to witness this for the first time ... unless the "car" lights are blue and red then i think that theory is busted... not to mention they were at the top of the mountain above the tree's where no car could possibly be.

ATV lights. Nothing to rule that out.
You can't prove it's Pumpkin Man orbs just because you choose to believe that bizarre explanation.
Landrew0 2 years ago
people have been seeing these lights for hundreds of years, long before motor vehicles.
In the early 20th century they tried to explain them as being steam locomotive headlights, but the lights were there before the railroad came into the area and are still there even though the railroad is now gone.

once again, atvs didn't exist 800 years ago

Neither did camcorders. What people may have seen 800 years ago doesn't change the fact that these look exactly like ATV headlights bobbing around.

Looks like a few people with flash lights.
Not saying that that's what it says.
I have seen something similar in the rocky mountains.... though the lights did not look like flash lights like these do.

@mangeese yea that could be it? but its coming from diffrent angles at time, and in the start it actualy have a round shape with the lights? if its man made they shall be at least 20 guys to do this? :-) but yea? i really dont know what to think? it can be both? its an interesting Video:-)
lokumspoet961 1 year ago
@mangeese I don't find this video particularly convincing myself. You have to see the lights yourself, because current technology isn't quite capable of capturing the full range of human senses at their peak. What I saw defied explanation by me, but I'm guessing it's some sort of geologic or atmospheric phenomenon. Sightings date too far back and don't quite fit the bill to be cars, trains, or flashlights, and I doubt people like to camp all over that mountain every night.

I did research over the year since i last posted. Here are my findings,
For age's "Spook Lights" have been seen and reported hovering over the ground anywhere from several inches to several feet with only very few reports of tree top level sightings world wide. "With one of very few uncommon reports of "Spook Lights" that would slowly rise during sundown. The sighting took place on a lonely dirt road. this kind of report was rare and now these types of reports are more common.
mangeese 1 year ago
Today reports of "Spook Lights" appear to be literally on the rise, at the tree top levels that is. The "Anti Gravity Grid" And the "Geometric Vortex" has been more active perhaps causing the lights to go live at higher altitudes. But i'll have you know the "Anti Gravity Grid" and the "Geometric Vortex" are both power sources ;)

UGH i spent 7 hours trying to get all this posted i am really pissed off about this but i had to get it on here.
There was so many issues with this it was unbelievably insanely maddening to the millionth degree it was litterally like being in hell for like 1 second.

If you speed up the video, the lights seem to be moving in a line...possibly a line of cars? I checked google earth at this spot, there is something that might appear to be a road there along the ridge.
However, if there is no road there, then that explanation is gone. Electromagnetic lights?

You know how u can clearly take a video of an airplane landing? and say, thats an airplane, U see? unless it doesnt take off or do something inexplicable, it would still be subject to belief. Although i believe its an honest video, it can easily be dismissed as a prank because Is not doing anything that you can say beyong the shadow of doubt. However; Skywatcher, Thank You

I'm not saying theres not anything out there, but if you have a deadline to make- sometimes the will overextends reality. If you know what I mean.
On Coast to Coast AM last week it was said that there are regular trips to that site and others to search for more on the murder or Pumpkin Man. I think they spotted one of these midnight forays.
