Presenting on his book of the same title, author Larry Wood details the history of the Ozarks or Tri-State Spook Light. Reaching its peak as a tourist attraction during the mid to late twentieth century, the nightly phenomenon has been drawing the curious to an out-of-the-way spot near the Missouri-Oklahoma border for almost a century. The book also recounts the supernatural legends that purport to explain the strange light, and it chronicles the many scientific and pseudo-scientific investigations into the light's origin.Image from the cover of "The Ozarks Spook Light"
