Scientists, researchers and astronomers have researched it for over a half a century. Speculation and wild theories are still abound.
Absolutely no one has provided a definitive answer to the light known worldwide as: THE PAULDING LIGHT.
A confirmed mystery of the upper peninsula of Michigan. Producer Director Bill Rebane the first to spend over two years investigating the phenomenon and presenting it to the public on film, to this date maintains that this phenomenon could well challenge the scientific community and its research at its best.
While the United States Forrest Service is determined to explain it away as being of “Ghostly Origin.” No evidence has sufficed to confirm such speculation.
The Discovery network show Fact or Fake batted zero with its investigations into the light. Finally giving up on it and confirming that it was indeed “fact rather than fake." In short. A true unsolved mystery.
The new re-released Digital documentary a regional best selling DVD is now spurring even further interest and investigations into the one and only mystery in North America yet unsolved.
For over one hundred years, Hurley Wisconsin and its main drag, “Silver Street,” has received its share of national media exposure. Less much for its attributes then for its infamy.
In the annals of history, Hurley is recorded as the “Hell hole” of the America’s northern frontier, the iron Range.
Besides offering the nation the valuable commodities of Virgin timber stands and iron ore, Silver Street’s main trade was Booze, Sin and Corruption. With its 67 saloons to a six-block stretch of Silver Street. Whiskey flowed not by the glass, but by the barrel.
Famous American Author Edna Ferber, immortalized “Lotta Morgan” the infamous Hurley entertainer and prostitute, in her novel Come and get it.
MGM further brought attention to the northern frontier with its production of Come and get it winning an academy award in 1936.
Hurley’s defiance of the law and it’s sinful ways continued from its beginning, past the days of prohibition and the times of Al Capone, Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson who loved Hurley’s profile and the ways it did business.
Silver Street - The Documentary digs into the history books and stories which emerges as a colorful mosaic, intriguing if not riveting drama of epic proportions that could fill volumes and provide hours of entertainment for the silver screens.
Americas Wild West. From Dodge City to Tombstone, they can all take a back seat to Early Burly Hurley.
