BROWN MTN
A family's camping trip in the North Carolina mountains becomes the most documented abduction case in history. Riley Morris, an autistic boy, never lets go of his camera. Through his lens we see what the others miss — the lights above Brown Mountain, the figures in the woods, and the tunnel that shouldn't exist.

The Brown Mountain Lights
Documented since 1913. Witnesses describe orbs of light that move intelligently above the ridge, sometimes splitting, merging, or descending into the forest. The Army Corps of Engineers investigated in 1922 and found no explanation. In 2014, the Morris family went looking for them.
