Before Tillamook Rock Lighthouse would be built things went wrong on the rock. One man accessing the area is killed when a wave takes him and he swept out to sea and never seen again, and just a couple weeks before it would be lit for the first time a vessel crashes right near the rock and unlit lighthouse, taking 16 men to their watery graves.

Over 100 years ago, two serial killers roamed in Germany, leaving behind several murdered children in their wake. Peter Kürten would go on to murder several young girls and one man. Fritz Haarmann would murder several boys. Both came from Germany, dubbed Vampire serial killers (of Dusseldorf and Hanover) and both would be executed via the guillotine.

The Clara Nevada, believed to be plum full of gold from the Klondike Gold Rush and full of passengers goes up in flames after a explosion occurs and takes several to a watery grave. Years later a series of lighthouses are built throughout Alaska, so this won't happen again.. one of those is Eldred Rock Lighthouse, and ten years after the Clara Nevada goes down, a keeper at Eldred Rock comes upon the vessels remains.
