Question: What famous West Texas atmospheric phenomenon has been attributed to paranormal activity and has been referenced in a number of songs and TV shows?

Answer: The Marfa Lights

The mysterious glowing orbs that appear to dance on the horizon at sunset or sunrise are most likely caused by light bending as it travels through air of varying density, similar to a mirage. The first recorded observation was in 1883 by cowhand Robert Reed Ellison.
