Just before the turn of the 20th century, a brand new lighthouse sitting atop the island known as Eilean Mor, off the west coast of Scotland, would endure it's rite of passage and have it's light first lit on December 7th, 1899. Blanketed in misfortune from decades past, Eilean Mor, along with it's fellow islands known collectively as the Flannan Isles, located the Outer Hebrides, is no stranger to shipwrecks and to the loss of sailors. To combat the issue of lost goods and the seafaring death toll continuously rising just like the waves of the world's unforgiving seas, a lighthouse was built... but it wouldn't take long for this area to reel back in it's feeling of overwhelming despair as just a little over a year, on December 26th, 1900, three lighthouse keepers stationed on Eilean Mor would never be seen, or heard from, again. In one of the most intriguing disappearance cases of all time, you'll quickly find that no theory works in it's entirety. Nothing adds up completely in order to hand you a foolproof solution. Your mind will be pulled in every direction while trying to gather ideas on what caused these three experienced lighthouse keepers to vanish without a trace over a century ago. Do you have any information that could help in solving this case?
