A Texas name that keeps turning up in the company of other mysteries. The Marfa Lights appear in these stories as a point of comparison. Distant lights that people come to watch. The Hornet Spook Light near Joplin is said to keep company with them and the Brown Mountain Lights.

And when Palacios stalled a football game in 1973, the town took its place in older Texas lore. The 1897 Aurora airship crash. The Lubbock Lights of 1951. The Marfa Lights.
