In December 1900, three lighthouse keepers vanished without a trace from the remote Flannan Isles lighthouse in the Outer Hebrides. No struggle, no note, no bodies—just a dark tower, an orderly interior, and a mystery that has baffled generations. This episode of Strange Places explores the lighthouse itself, the men who served there, the eerie circumstances of their disappearance, and the legendary log entries that have fueled speculation for over a century. From plausible theories like rogue waves and accidents to whispers of supernatural forces, we examine why this event remains one of the most unsettling maritime mysteries in history. Was it human error, an environmental anomaly, or something beyond explanation? What happened to these men? And where are their bodies?
