Escape: "Three Skeleton Key"

I've heard another version of this (narrated by Vincent Price - it's been done 3 times). I'm fascinated and disgusted at the same time.

It's the story of 3 men in a lighthouse. A ship comes up that has been swallowed by thousands and thousands (maybe more) of rats. The ship breaks up on the reefs, and the rats get out of the ship and, smelling the humans, climb up the entire lighthouse with the hope of getting at the people (so they can eat them - they are starving; obviously, this is how the old shipmates died).
