EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the haunting beauty and mystery of the Will o' the Wisps, a Scottish folk phenomena believed to have originated in the marshy lowlands of the country during the late 1800s. According to local lore, these luminous, elusive lights were carried by the devil himself, luring unsuspecting travellers to their deaths in the treacherous marshlands. The Will o' the Wisps have been a subject of fascination and fear in Scottish folklore for centuries. The natural explanation for these phenomena is the presence of methane gas emitted from the marshy soil, which ignites when it comes into contact with a spark. However, for the Scottish people of the past, there was no rational explanation that could quell the fear and superstition that surrounded these enigmatic lights. This photograph, taken circa 1900, captures the ethereal quality of the Will o' the Wisps, with their luminous orbs casting an eerie glow over the dark, marshy landscape. The image transports us back in time, to a world where the natural world was imbued with magic and mystery, and where the devil himself was said to roam the marshes, carrying his lights to lead the unwary astray. The history of the Will o' the Wisps is a fascinating glimpse into the rich tapestry of Scottish folklore, a testament to the power of storytelling and the enduring allure of the unknown. This photograph is a reminder of the importance of preserving the stories and traditions of the past, and of the beauty and wonder that can be found in the natural world, even in its darkest and most mysterious corners.
