The eerie disappearance of the Eilean Mor lighthouse keepers - gordi - 06-02-2016 (Please Note: I pondered long and hard about which category to post this old mystery in, but many people believe that since there has been no "normal" explanation, that it should fit into a "paranormal" category...) Rogues and Roguettes... may I present the strange and eerie disappearance of The Eilean Mor Lighthouse Keepers. In January 1900, three lighthouse keepers on a remote island disappeared into the night, never to be seen again. Their disappearance still baffles scholars more than 100-years after the event. The mystery happened on the largest of the Flannan Islands, Eilean Mor, which is part of a group of seven islands, sometimes referred to as The Seven Hunters....

Anyway, some think they drowned, while others pointed out the fact that the one man went outside in a storm without his gear or winter coat. Something had to have happened that was of utmost importance to make him run out like that. I suppose back then they had the kind of clocks that had to be wound every day, but it could also have been a UFO that made them stop. Were they all beamed aboard an alien craft, never to be seen again? Another possibility would be that a ghost frightened them so bad that they all ran out in terror and got swept way by the stormy waters. A mystery we will never have a definite answer to now. |
