______________
In this chapter, we examine the legend of ‘Corpse Lights’; mysterious glowing lights said to appear over graveyards, marshes, battlefields, and lonely roads, often believed to be omens of death, wandering spirits, or the souls of the dead.
Join us as we trace where these strange lights appear in folklore, how different cultures have interpreted them, what details remain consistent across the tales, and whether there may be any natural explanation behind their strange glow.
