Formation of lights over mountain
My friend and I were heading west on US 33/SR 55 just before 9pm when we spotted some peculiar lights on top of the mountain directly ahead of us. There were six lights stacked horizontally that looked like lights that you see on top of a stadium. They were bright and didn't move at all. They looked yellowish white while my friend thought they were more pearl white in color. There was no movement at all, no flickering, pulsating or dimming of the lights.
About half a mile from where we first spotted the lights, the mountain would become obscured by a large hill on the right side of the road and we lost sight of the lights. We continued driving but never saw the lights again.
To clarify location, the Eastern Continental Divide crosses the road not far from where we had seen the lights. We would've crossed into Randolph County from Pendleton County. The road takes a sharp left turn before continuing west towards Harman, WV.
Based on aerial maps, the lights would had to have been over the Jacob C. Harper Family Cemetery or right near it. I don't believe the lights would've originated from the cemetery though nor from any other man made structure on the mountain. The proportions just don't align given the proximity.
Adding to the creepiness of the incident, as we continued west on US 33/SR 55, there was something on the road that we narrowly missed that was really strange, almost looked like a Halloween prop out of place or a dismembered figure. It could've simply been a branch that fell and was shaped oddly or even a dead animal, but the chain reaction of events was very odd.
