When electrical systems fail and glowing objects appear in the night, what explanation could suffice? This episode of Mondo Freako explores the mysterious events of November 1957 in Levelland, Texas, where multiple witnesses reported encounters with a strange, luminous egg-shaped object that caused vehicles to stall.
