 Investigation and Conclusions
This paper is a summary of our observations and research in regards to the 'ghostlight' and various other 'strange' phenomena occurring on Scugog Island, Ontario between the period of April 2000 to July 2001.
We feel that this unsupported (by our experiments) hypothesis may be relevant to reports of light phenomena other than the consistent 'ghostlight' due to Scugog Island's close proximity to an active geologic fault line and geophysical makeup.
Differing traffic conditions at this specific location of the W. line and weather conditions contribute to the differences in appearance of the 'ghostlights'.
