A mysterious black smoke ring appeared in the skies over Kansas, sparking conspiracy theories that a portal to hell might have opened in the Midwest.

The bizarre sighting was captured by motorcyclist Frankie Camren as he rode down a quiet street Monday afternoon in Bonner Springs.

‘I was out riding and heading down County Road 2 toward State Avenue when I noticed all the cars were moving slowly. I looked up and saw this big black ring in the sky,’ Camren told DailyMail.com.

‘Everyone else kept driving past it—even though they were clearly looking at it—so I pulled over and started recording a video. I had no idea what was going on or how it even happened; it just looked super cool.’

The object appeared to be a thick, black ring of smoke, slowly dissipating as Camren recorded the scene.

He share the video on Facebook, asking friends to weigh in on what the black ring could be.

‘It’s the devil blowing smoke rings from hell,’ one Facebook user commented.
‘Pretty sure that’s the Wicked Witch of the West doing a donut,’ another joked.
