Unravelling the Eilean Mor Lighthouse Mystery
The Eilean Mor lighthouse mystery involves the unexplained disappearance of three lighthouse keepers—Thomas Marshall, James Ducat, and Donald McArthur—in December 1900. When a relief vessel arrived, the lighthouse was deserted, with no sign of the men. Later a magazine claimed the lighthouse log contained strange entries, mentioning severe storms (not recorded elsewhere) and the men's growing fear. The final log entry stated, "Storm ended, sea calm. God is over all."
Theories about the disappearance range from a rogue wave sweeping them away to paranormal activity, but no definitive explanation has ever been found, leaving their disappearance one of Scotland's enduring mysteries.
