If you liked Needle Into A Bug, owHH, The Hare And the Moon and various other creepy stuff I've done this will be right up your street" (Roger Linney, Reverb Worship)"The music involves sinister synthesizer swathes, doleful, doomy and slow-moving. Bleats, birdsong, tolling bells and distorted voices occasionally intrude. It is all splendidly like the half-preserved soundtrack to a forgotten low-budget Nineteen Seventies (oc)cult film. To be enjoyed while perusing your well-thumbed, luridly-covered paperbacks of Blackwood, Machen and Hope Hodgson" (Mark Valentine, Wormwoodiana)"The Northern Lighthouse Board is an actual non-governmental body in Scotland that deals with the maritime affairs surrounding a certain lighthouse. However, it is also a British project that seeks darkness rather than light. It is not clear who is behind this project, but that actually fits with the music, which is also quite mysterious. In 45 minutes, 18 tracks are reviewed, somewhere between synth wave, dark wave, drones and film music for the better horror film. The music seems to have been created mainly with synthesizer, field recordings and samples, but with that a varied dark and compelling sound is shown. You know how to hypnotize the music and drag it away from everyday reality. I think fans of The Heartwood Institute, Needle Into A Bug, SPK and Seabuckthorn know what to do with this. Again such a wonderful feature on the ever-surprising Reverb Worship label" (Jan Willem Broek, Het Schaduwkabinet, De Subjectivisten)"The Northern Lighthouse Board is shaping up to be one of my faves of the year: deep and mysterious, full of found sounds, spooky soundscapes and goats!" (Andy Uzzell, Misophonia Records - "The Listener," Rusted Tone Recordings)"Droning synthesizers cast long, sinister shadows throughout the entire album, as gothic church bells, panicked screams and other haunting samples emerge here and there. In fact, this album is so spectral; I would not be surprised if real examples of electronic voice phenomenon were hidden in the mix. If you love soundtracks to imaginary horror films as much as I do, then you really need to give this album a listen on a still, moonless night" (Keith Hadad, Record Crates United)""A shimmering, haunting collection...excellent pieces for rumination and reflection" (Issues Magazine) $(".tralbum-about").last().bcTruncate(TruncateProfile.get("tralbum_about"), "more", "less"); credits released November 29, 2019 license all rights reserved tags Tags alternative haunted folk horror movie score dark ambient dark electronica dungeon synth experimental folk folk horror folk noir forest synth gothic folk gothic horror hauntronica neofolk soundscapes United Kingdom Shopping cart total USD Check out about Michael Plater England, UK

The Haunted Lighthouse Sub Download
It all began in 1894 when it was initially lit after the arrival of its first-order Fresnel lens from England. The lighthouse was named after the Portuguese explorer, Don Burnos Heceta who sailed from Mexico to the Oregon coast in 1775.
The lighthouse was a necessity for the treacherous Oregon coast in the 19th Century but the funds needed for its success were missing. In order to save money, lighthouse officials used the blueprints from the Umpqua River Lighthouse and ordered the first-order Fresnel lens from England rather than France.
The ghost of the Heceta Head Lighthouse is known by lighthouse volunteers and visitors as Rue. She is commonly seen in the Lighthouse Keepers room where she was once rumored to live with her husband and young daughter who died after falling from the cliffs outside. Rue is identified by her long silver hair and dark colored dress. She has been described as annoyed by the visitors and changes that enter her home.
Howl-O-Scream is intended for a mature audience. Howl-O-Scream is a separately ticketed night event that is not included with regular SeaWorld park admission. Tickets to Howl-o-Scream include haunted houses, scare zones, live entertainment, DJ dance parties, access to themed bars, rides and coasters inside the park, and more.
But Muriel left her handkerchief in the lighthouse and went alone to retrieve it. Her friends heard screams coming from inside the lighthouse and frantically ran after her. When they reached the linen closet, the hole in the wall of the lighthouse was mysteriously covered. The group discovered something terrifying: a pool of warm, red blood.
In the 1940s, the structure was scheduled for demolition, but a group of residents formed the Lincoln County Historical Society in an effort to save it. With help from a wealthy industrialist, they raised enough money to spare the lighthouse from demolition.
The Point Reyes Lighthouse, built in 1870, was retired from service in 1975 when the U.S. Coast Guard installed an automated light. They then transferred ownership of the lighthouse to the National Park Service, which has taken on the job of preserving this fine specimen of our heritage.
All lighthouses in the United States are now automated because it is cheaper to let electronics do the work. Many decommissioned lighthouses were transformed into restaurants, inns, or museums. The lighthouse at Point Reyes National Seashore is now a museum piece, where the era of the lightkeepers' lives, the craftsmanship and the beauty of the lighthouse are actively preserved.
The Point Reyes Lighthouse lens and mechanism were constructed in France in 1867. The clockwork mechanism, glass prisms and housing for the lighthouse were shipped on a steamer around the tip of South America to San Francisco. The parts from France and the parts for the cast iron tower were transferred to a second ship, which then sailed to a landing on Drakes Bay. The parts were loaded onto ox-drawn carts and hauled three miles over the headlands to near the tip of Point Reyes, 600 feet above sea level.
Meanwhile, 300 feet below the top of the cliff, an area had been blasted with dynamite to clear a level spot for the lighthouse. To be effective, the lighthouse had to be situated below the characteristic high fog. It took six weeks to lower the materials from the top of the cliff to the lighthouse platform and construct the lighthouse. Finally, after many years of tedious political pressure, transport of materials and difficult construction, the Point Reyes Light first shone on December 1, 1870.
Lighthouses provide mariners some safety by warning them of rocky shores and reefs. They also help mariners navigate by indicating their location as ships travel along the coast. Mariners recognize lighthouses by their unique flash pattern. On days when it is too foggy to see the lighthouse, a fog signal is essential. Fog signals sound an identifying pattern to signal the location to the passing ships. Unfortunately, the combination of lighthouses and fog signals does not eliminate the tragedy of shipwrecks.
Because of this ongoing problem, a lifesaving station was established on the Great Beach north of the lighthouse in 1890. Men walked the beaches in four-hour shifts, watching for shipwrecks and the people who would need rescue from frigid waters and powerful currents. A new lifesaving station was opened in 1927 on Drakes Bay near Chimney Rock and was active until 1968. Today, it is a National Historic Landmark and can be viewed from the Chimney Rock Trail.
Before Fresnel developed this lens, lighthouses used mirrors to reflect light out to sea. The most effective lighthouses could only be seen eight to twelve miles away. After his invention, the brightest lighthouses could be seen all the way to the horizon, about twenty-four miles.
Keeping the lighthouse in working condition was a twenty-four hour job. The light was lit only between sunset and sunrise, but there was work to do all day long. The head keeper and three assistants shared the load in four six-hour shifts.
Every evening, a half-hour before sunset, a keeper walked down the wooden stairs to light the oil lamp, the lighthouse's source of illumination. Once the lamp was lit, the keeper wound the clockwork mechanism, lifting a 170 pound weight, which was attached to the clockwork mechanism by a hemp rope, nine feet off the floor. The earth's gravity would then pull the weight, through a small trap door, to the ground level 17 feet below. The clockwork mechanism was built to provide resistance so that it would take two hours and twenty minutes for the weight to descend the 17 feet. And as the weight descended and the clockwork mechanism's gears spun, the Fresnel lens would turn so that the light appeared to flash every five seconds. In addition to winding the clockwork mechanism every two-hours and twenty minutes throughout the night, the keeper had to keep the lamp wicks trimmed so that the light would burn steadily and efficiently, thus the nickname "wickie." 2ff7e9595c
