Late in the evening during the summer of 1998 four of my friends and I went to check out this legend known as the spook light. We probably arrived on the road at 2:00 in the morning or so. The second we turned onto the road we noticed a small light way off in the distance. Looked miles and miles away. We kept driving up the road at idle speed all the while the light changing colors, moving, disappearing, reappearing, and changing size. Sometimes the light had a reddish color to it, sometimes a greenish glow, and sometimes it looked white. After about an hour of being out there we came over a hill and a white/yellowish basketball sized light was at the bottom of the hill not more than 7ft from our vehicle. We had no lights on for the whole amount of time we were out there and we didn't see anyone or anything else while on the road. To the side of the light I could swear there was almost a purple haze to the right of the light. The light got about 3ft. from the car, then spun around in a 2ft. circle parallel to the ground. We all got very scared and had the car in reverse at full speed in no time flat. After going back over the hill the light was gone. This is the real deal. I was in high school at the time at Pittsburg High School in Pittsburg, Ks and went to school next day, mentioned the incident to my art teacher and she told me her story of the spook light and about how the light was no where to be seen and just about as they were going to leave it lit up inside of her car. I've heard many stories somewhat like mine and there is no way that gasses are causing this paranormal activity.
