Dark Waters: What Really Happened to the Missing Lighthouse KeepersThree lighthouse keepers walked into the darkness of December 15, 1900, and never walked back out. When relief arrived at the remote Flannan Isles lighthouse eleven days later, they found something that would haunt maritime history forever: an unlocked door, a cold untouched meal, an overturned chair, and absolutely no trace of James Ducat, Thomas Marshall, or Donald McArthur. The lighthouse beam that should have been guiding ships to safety had gone dark, leaving only questions that have persisted for over a century. Was it a freak wave that swept all three men to their deaths? A psychological breakdown in the isolation? Or something far more mysterious? This isn't another ghost story about a cursed lighthouse. This is the real investigation into what happens when experienced professionals vanish without explanation, leaving behind only contradictory evidence and a mystery that modern science still can't definitively solve.#FlannansIsles #LighthouseKeepers #ScottishMystery #MaritimeMystery #UnsolvedMystery #TrueCrime #HistoricalMysteryThanks for listening to 10 Minute Mystery.
