Ghost Ships

Eyewitnesses tell shocking stories of encountering spectral vessels on the high seas.

Ever since man first ventured onto the seas, the wind and water have conspired to send many ships and their crews to the bottom. But for some of these ill-fated vessels, their fatal journey does not appear to have been final.

From the Flying Dutchman and the Mary Celeste to more recent cases like that of the Joyita, historians detail their tragic fates, while sailors share incredible tales of encounters with spectral vessels. Skeptics offer another take on what may lie behind their numerous appearances, while believers contend that they are very real indeed and, in fact, are harbingers of events to come.

This is a compelling examination of some of the most pervasive legends of the high seas--the GHOST SHIPS.
