This Guy Plans on Spending 60 Days in a Haunted Lighthouse


Marc Pointud is currently preparing to spend 60 days on his own, in one of the most terrifying places in France: The infamous lighthouse of Tévennec. Located on an inhospitable island, just off the Pointe du Raz in Brittany, the place has a rather dark reputation. Given that it’s hard to access and people are scared shitless of the place, no one has dared to live there since 1910—the year it was automated.

Lit for the first time in 1875, the lighthouse has met 23 guards. Henri Guezennec was the first person to live there and, unsurprisingly, he was also the first to go completely mad. To this day, the legend lives on. There are of guards losing their minds, people dying suspiciously after falling on knives, children dying, and, of course, ghosts. In many ways the lighthouse isn’t dissimilar to its neighbor Ar-Men—or the “Hell of Hells,” as it’s been dubbed.
