Chapters:
00:00 - Owen Parfitt
10:50 - The Flannan Isles Lighthouse Keepers
First, we travel to Shepton Mallet in 1763 for The Vanishing of Owen Parfitt. How does an elderly, paralyzed man vanish into thin air from his porch in broad daylight, surrounded by witnesses? And why did a discovery 50 years later only make the mystery deeper?
Next, we head out to Eilean Mòr for The Vanishing of the Flannan Isles Lighthouse Keepers. In December 1900, three experienced lighthouse keepers vanished off a isolated rock in the North Atlantic without a trace. I'll separate the wild urban legends and famous poems from the terrifying real-life evidence found on the island.

A quick note about the stories: They’re all based on true events, but we sometimes use pseudonyms to protect the people involved, and some details are fictionalized for dramatic purposes.
