The Lighthouse That Blinked Back
Off the coast of Cornwall lies an abandoned lighthouse known as Penwyth Point. Fishermen avoid it, claiming the lantern still flashes at night — even though it was decommissioned in 1932. A diary found in its ruins tells of keeper Samuel Dyer, who reported “a second light” blinking from the horizon, copying his own. When he blinked twice, it did the same. The log ends abruptly with the entry: “It’s closer now. I can see a face inside the beam.” Locals say on foggy nights, if you flash a light toward the old tower, it blinks back — and your reflection inside the glass doesn’t belong to you.
