Only saw the light once and it was daytime. I was with a friend who also saw it. It was a semi-clear orb that bounced toward us.

My Dad told us the legend about the lady with the lantern looking for her husband who had been decapitated in a train wreck. A variation was that she was looking for her husband's head. If the light got over your car it would stall your engine. My dad said that they say it was actually marsh gas but he said marsh gas does not move the way the light moved. My older brothers took me and their friends to see the light in the late 70's. It was a very creepy, dark dirt road with woods on both sides .we saw a wild hog that my brother chased. The road was very muddy and the car slid off the side of the road, some young people in a truck pulled us out, then we all went up to a clearing, we all parked there. Me and all the girls stayed with our car and other vehicles and the guys went walking through the clearing into the woods. Finally all the guys came running back scared and looking like they saw a ghost yelling jump in the car, hurry it's chasing us, if it gets to our car we will be stuck here til morning. Then we all took off as fast as we could looking behind us as the light followed.
