Eilean Mor Lighthouse Keepers - Scotland

Eilean Mor Lighthouse Keepers - Scotland

Author: Locations Unknown March 31, 2020 Duration: 35:52
December 26th, 1900, on a remote island off of the western shore of Scotland, a small ship was making its way towards the island’s lighthouse with Joseph Moore.  Moore, a replacement lighthouse keeper, was rowing ashore to take his post. When he reached the lighthouse, the previous crew stationed there was gone.  The only evidence left behind was an eerie logbook of events leading up to their disappearance.  What happened to the seasoned crew stationed at the lighthouse?  Join us this week as we investigate the mystery of Eilean Mor and the events that have become the basis for stories and legends for over a century.      We would like to thank this weeks sponsor - Verdure CBD.  You can visit their website at http://verdurecbd.com.  Be sure to use promo code Unknown10 at checkout to get 10% off your order.

Locations Unknown ventures into the silent, vast spaces where people have simply gone missing. Hosts Mike & Joe guide each episode through a specific case, piecing together timelines from the final known moments, through the often-frustrating official searches, and into the lingering questions that haunt families and park rangers alike. This isn't just a true crime podcast; it’s a close look at the intersection of human error, unpredictable nature, and the peculiar geography of places like dense national forests and isolated mountain ranges that can swallow a person whole. You’ll hear about the decisions made in the critical hours, the terrain that complicated everything, and the community of experts and amateurs who keep looking. The show naturally explores how these landscapes, while beautiful, hold secrets, making the wilderness itself a central character in every story. Tune in for a respectful, detailed examination of stories that end not with a conclusion, but with an open map and a deepened mystery. The podcast digs into the cultural fascination with these vanishings and what they reveal about our relationship with the wild, remote corners of the country.
