The Flannan Isles Lighthouse Disappearances In 1900, three keepers of the Flannan Isles Lighthouse off the west coast of Scotland disappeared under the strangest of circumstances. The lighthouse was manned by a three-person team (Thomas Marshall, James Ducat, and Donald MacArthur), with a fourth man rotating in from shore. On Boxing Day (December 26) of 1900, the relief keeper arrived to find none of the lighthouse keepers present. The only sign that anything was amiss was an overturned chair near the kitchen table. No bodies were ever found, which has led to endless speculation. Theories range from drownings to abduction by foreign spies, a ghost ship, or a giant sea monster. Whatever happened back in December 1900 at the Flannan Isles Lighthouse, we may never know. So, tell us what happened to the lighthouse keepers! I'm only going to make a few points that may in fact add to the mystery of the lighthouse three. The significance of the number three appears in the joyful mysteries of the bible. And on the third day, he rose again, so when they returned to his burial tomb they found Jesus gone. the relief keeper arrived to find none of the lighthouse keepers present On the day Jesus was born he was visited by three magi from the east, who followed a light in the sky. A little bit of a connection there, three lighthouse keepers, lighthouses create lights in the sky. Then there's the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. Speaks for itself. One from Charles Dickens - Eboneeser Scrooge was visited by three spirits on Christmas eve. A bit of a stretch, I'll admit it. And finally, One, by Three Dog Night. Now I'm just making shit up. I'm fairly certain there is a pattern here. It is a pretty boring job, being a lighthouse keeper, they probably just buggered off for a Christmas drink and decided to keep on drinking. |

your comment. I've done some time curled up. The thumb-sucking never gets old, but the games get boring, and once you've seen all the videos the real world becomes a welcome lifestyle change.
