In many ways, there was no other possible location for The Ghost Lights to take place. That land is beyond comprehension, but the stunning photography that accompanies the stories of the ghost lights makes it possible to begin to understand the sheer loneliness of the West Texas desert.

It’s not the simple emptiness of a lonely city block or a deserted park. It’s difficult for anyone who hasn’t been there to understand how empty that massive expanse of land is. The flashbacks are in black and white and supplemented with gorgeous photographs of the barren landscape of West Texas. There’s the present-day storyline of Alex listening to the tapes, and the flashbacks to her young father (John Francis McCullagh) making these recordings with Mario (Billy Blair), a man who saw the ghost lights. She finds herself in the midst of strange disappearances, large conspiracies, and, most importantly, with a story to write to get her boss off her back. The longer Alex listens to the tape, the more she realizes it’s not a simple story of lights in the sky. Soon, Alex finds herself wrapped up in an otherworldly mystery about the ghost lights of West Texas. While Alex is cleaning out her father’s house, she comes across an old tape recorder and a collection of tapes. A funeral her sister informs her was two days ago. The audience quickly realizes that Alex isn’t in this taxi for a fun vacation. This time, it’s her sister, Liz (Madison Calhoun). As she’s in the middle of begging for an extension, another call comes in. Her sense of peace is interrupted by a phone call from her boss (Ryan Bijan) about a magazine story that’s past due. She’s got headphones in, relaxing and listening to music. The first eight minutes of The Ghost Lights are a close-up of Alex (Katreeva Phillips) in the back of a taxi.
