Traveling slowly down Greenbriar Road late at night may be hazardous to your mental health if the Greenbriar Light decides to follow you. Motorists say this mysterious ball of light appears from out of nowhere and bobs along behind their cars, sometimes hovering over them, but never passing on the road.
Reports were so numerous that in 1987 the Sheriff's Department dispatched scientists to investigate the mysterious luminescence. No explanation could be found. This was not an area the would normally produce swamp gas, as in other cases involving ghost- light phenomena.
However, locals connect the light to the untimely death of a young man on a motorcycle, decapitated when his bike hit a cable in the road. Supposedly the Greenbriar Light is the solitary beacon of his motorcycle, searching the road endlessly for... its missing parts.
We visited here during the day when all was quiet. We did see abandoned tires...perhaps from cars trying to escape those lights and we definitely saw many weaving brake skids on the road.
