my father once told me while he was in the farm out from nowhere he saw a pingpong size ball of light entering the nipa hut ....it floats infront of them while having their lunch my father to gether with a a boy and his father (the farms caretaker) a cat was also present and almost hesitant to touch- follows slowly the light object and for a minute then zooms outside the nipa hut window and they hear a bigbang like lightning ..... the said light strucks a coconut tree near the house.---------- when i visits the farm one day i ask the boy and his father about the incident and they told me the same story i was told by my father...
st. elmos fire they said "santelmo" daw yun.. one night it was raining a bit around 12 midnight while i am about to enter the house about 20 meters under a coconut tree with bushes around i saw it flickering in the dark like a ball and when it flickers it has its tongue like tails fading when i decided to enter the house and sleep but til then up to now i still wondered about it.
Tutoo yan, isa po yang form of energy like the KIdlat, pero walang kinalaman ang mga maligno dyam, isa yang enerhiya na akala ng mga matatanda natin ay may sa demonyo na nagliligaw ng madaming magsasaka at mangingisda.
madalas sa mga marshland yan nag occur, sa mga mamasa-masang lupa, sa bukid at tabing dagat na madaming halaman
kapag uma ambon at may damuhan sa likod bahay nyo, yun po bang tipong kumikidlat sa gabi, may chance na maka sumpong kayo ng santilmo, ma mamangha kayo
Gusto ko makakita nyan, kahit saan saan na ko nakapunta wala parin akong nakikita puro wentu lng
Lightning Ball yung tawag diyan.....
It has not anything to do with supernatural...
Isa yang form nang kidlat na pwedeng mag-bounce kahit san

i also heard same kind of story from my late grandfather.
