Perhaps they had no business being there in the first place, a cold, barren, lifeless rock in the North Atlantic.

Perhaps the whispers of superstition and warnings of other worldly forces went unheeded, a mistake

which cost three men their lives.

Perhaps there's still some clue, a missing piece of the puzzle still left to be found on that

weather-beaten little island off the coast of Scotland, something that can clear the thick

eerie fog of uncertainty away from this century old mystery.

Perhaps not. Because for all the speculation, for all the theories sane and wild, and for every little token of evidence that

has been pieced together as to why three men vanished from an isolated little island in

1900, we're still left with the same emptiness as the lighthouse

which they were tending was found. From the poem Flannen Isle, Though we hunted high and low and hunted everywhere,

of the three men's fate we found no trace of any kind in any place,

but a door a jar and an untouched meal and an over-toppled chair.

We seem to stand for an endless while, though still no word was said. Three men alive on Flanan Isle, who thought on three men dead.

We're exploring the Eelan Moore Lighthouse Mystery on this episode of Blurry Photos. Hey everybody I'm your host David Flora. Welcome to the show. Quick announcement for you. I'm going to be doing

another live show at the Beat Kitchen in Chicago. This one's on Sunday, February 25th at 8 p.m. Central Time.

Love to see you come out for that one. Got a weekend time slot

for this one, which is nice. And it's not the Chicago Podcast Festival, but it is the same folks who

are running it, and they did a great job with the last one so looking forward to it.

Hope you can make it.

Tickets are $15.

I might do a giveaway here or there in a couple months leading up to it.
