May 10th - The Disappearance of the Eilean Mor Lighthouse Keepers

On May 10th, 1900, a mysterious event occurred at the Eilean Mor Lighthouse, located on the remote Flannan Isles off the coast of Scotland. Three lighthouse keepers, James Ducat, Thomas Marshall, and Donald McArthur, vanished without a trace, leaving behind a puzzling and unsolved mystery that has captivated people for over a century.

When a relief boat arrived at the island, they found the lighthouse unattended, with no sign of the three men. Inside, the table was set for a meal, a chair was overturned, and one of the men's oilskin coats was missing. The clocks had stopped, and the lamps were cleaned and refilled, ready for the night ahead. However, the logbook entries abruptly ended on December 15th, with no indication of any trouble or distress.

Theories abound as to what might have happened to the three men. Some speculate that they were swept away by a freak wave while attempting to secure equipment during a storm. Others suggest that they might have been attacked by pirates or foreign spies. More outlandish theories involve paranormal activity, such as alien abduction or a mysterious creature lurking in the waters surrounding the island.

One particularly eerie detail is that, according to local folklore, a passing ship reported seeing a strange light on the island a few days before the men's disappearance. This has led some to speculate that the lighthouse keepers might have encountered something truly otherworldly on that fateful day.

Despite extensive investigations and searches, no trace of the men or any concrete evidence explaining their disappearance has ever been found. The case remains one of Scotland's most enduring mysteries, and the fate of the Eilean Mor Lighthouse keepers continues to inspire fascination and speculation to this day.
