Yes, we know we have covered this one before, but it's very much a team favourite and we always intended to go back and do a remake. This has all new artwork, much better narration and sound quality as well as a wealth of added information, particularly around the keepers themselves. There are also one or two new theories regarding what happened. Enjoy!

It took a lot of empty conjecture not supported by facts. The most important thing to me is the way the lighthouse was damaged. That we do know to be true. While it might seem risky to try to go out in a storm and work on it, especially lacking rain gear, it doesn't stretch of the facts.

Happy to have you back!!!! Hope all is well. As far as the mystery itself, the reasons I can think of for one not needing their oil skins would be: 1. As suggested, just a quick check outside. 2. Had to rush out in an intense hurry to help or save someone. 3. The individual did not need one - as in they were already deceased? Could the keeper that had been there for too long have lost it, only to be accidentally killed by the two others, perhaps trying to restrain him? In a panic they straightened up and decided to toss the body, thus dawning their gear, only to fall in with the deceased?

Bedtime Stories, this was probably one of the most Spookiest stories of yours I seen so far...but it got me thinking of this movie which was recently done a few years back shot here in Nova Scotia, Canada, simply called "The Lighthouse". That movie dealt mainly with the lives of the two lighthouse keepers, one an old salty veteran of the Lighthouse watch, and the other, a brand new young fellow, sent to the remote lighthouse to man it along with the older guy. What happens throughout the movie is the slow descent into madness from the long time period of lonliness experienced by Lighthouse keepers, and what eventually happens when the relief fails to show up at the allotted time to relieve them.

[@ninavale.]

I think it is possible that they got Folie à deux. I mean they were left alone in a secluded place, with no contact with the outside world. If even one of them succumbed to some sort of delusions, the others could get affected by it too. It would've explained why despite their experience they would've gone out during dangerous weather conditions and why one of them didn't take his coat. I mean in 2008 two twin sisters ran in front of a car and a lorry, and almost died, a married couple once thought that their house is being invaded and that the invaders spread fluff and dust and wear-down their shoes. In 2016 an entire Australian family went on a run because they thought someone is out to kill them. and it was pretty sudden too. and let's not forget the dancing plague. Plus when it comes to disorders different people react differently...and we still don't know what truly causes this particular one.

[@michaelandreipalon359]

I still am creeped out because of the dancing plague. The concept sounds fun... but the experience is dreadful, I admit.

@callmecatalyst Well, even ridiculous theories can actually have a lot of neritt.

I imagine two of them were out working on repairs after the storm tore up one of the landings, something unexpected came up, the third man rushed out from the lighthouse to help, and they all fell into the water. Hypothermia sets in pretty fast out in the North Sea, and the Flannan Isles are 32km out from the nearest inhabited islands. A week is a long time for wind and tide to carry away bodies.

[@absentiambient]

There's nothing better right now: saturday night, some smokes at hand & my weird ass lighthouse fetish since that Robert eggers masterpiece.

This is one of those stories that is so interesting that it’s worth revisiting. I know it’s over a year later and I’ve seen this before but I wanted to thank you for the great work you’ve put into not only this video but the other videos you make. Keep up the great work!

Just superb. The best I've seen so far for capturing the right tone, pace, length, balance without tipping into absurdity, and delivery of facts. The artwork is absolutely spot on, and very beautifully animated to just the right degree. The music and sounds slot in unobtrusively and evoke the appropriate mood. I look forward to dipping into these regularly.
