The Flannan Isles Lighthouse Mystery

Day 11 of 12 days of missing person cases in December.

On the 15th of December 1900, the ship Fairwind was passing by the Flannan Isles, a set of 7 islands in the outer hebrides in Scotland. There was a violent storm that night and the waters were choppy. The crew were shocked to see that the light was out at the Flannan Isle lighthouse located on the biggest island called Eilean Mor and there was nobody helping them to navigate the dangerous waters. A relief keeper went out on the 26th of December to swap over and give the 3 keepers on the lighthouse some more provisions. Relief Keeper Joseph Moore was shocked to the find the lighthouse deserted and the 3 keepers disappeared without a trace.
