On December 4th, 1872, a 100-foot brigantine was discovered drifting through the North Atlantic without a soul on board. Not a sign of struggle, not a shred of damage, no ransacked cargo—and not a trace of the captain, his wife and daughter, or the crew. What happened on board the ghost ship Mary Celeste has baffled and tantalized the world for 130 years. In his stunning new book, award-winning journalist Brian Hicks plumbs the depths of this fabled nautical mystery and finally uncovers the truth. The Mary Celeste was cursed as soon as she was launched on the Bay of Fundy in the spring of 1861. Her first captain died before completing the maiden voyage. In London she accidentally rammed and sank an English brig. Later she was abandoned after a storm drove her ashore at Cape Breton. But somehow the ship was recovered and refitted, and in the autumn of 1872 she fell to the reluctant command of a seasoned mariner named Benjamin Spooner Briggs. It was Briggs who was at the helm when the Mary Celeste sailed into history. In Brian Hicks’s skilled hands, the story of the Mary Celeste becomes the quintessential tale of men lost at sea. Hicks vividly recreates the events leading up to the crew’s disappearance and then unfolds the complicated and bizarre aftermath—the dark suspicions that fell on the officers of the ship that intercepted her; the farcical Admiralty Court salvage hearing in Gibraltar; the wild myths that circulated after Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published a thinly disguised short story sensationalizing the mystery. Everything from a voodoo curse to an alien abduction has been hauled out to explain the fate of the Mary Celeste. But, as Brian Hicks reveals, the truth is actually grounded in the combined tragedies of human error and bad luck. The story of the Mary Celeste acquired yet another twist in 2001, when a team of divers funded by novelist Clive Cussler located the wreck in a coral reef off Haiti. Written with the suspense of a thriller and the vivid accuracy of the best popular history, Ghost Ship tells the unforgettable true story of the most famous and most fascinating maritime mystery of all time.

Looking for a Scare? Then Read These 13 Spine-chilling Stories Are you interested in real ghost stories? How about chilling tales involving haunted ships? By haunted ships, I don't mean ghost ships wandering abandoned seas (as disturbing as that may be), but something much more frightening: ships haunted by ghosts, some friendly and some, well, deadly. Within these pages you will read the fascinating true stories of haunted ships, including ships such as: The Queen Mary, haunted by ghosts spanning the years from its days as a luxury cruise ship to its stress-filled years as a troop ship during war time. The USS Hornet CV-12, which was the sight of numerous tragic deaths and just as many disturbing ghost sightings (including a patient whose been waiting a long time to see the ship's doctor). The UB-65 German submarine, which has quite the list of fatal accidents before its assembly was even complete including the ghost of a deceased officer standing on its deck right before it peculiarly sank. The Palatine, which was seen burning, but still sailing on the anniversary of its shipwreck many years after. Discover the true stories about ghosts who tear the sheets of the beds of unsuspecting guests on a famous luxury liner, ghastly crew members tragically, and possibly maliciously, killed whose faces appear in waves beside the ship, and a lifeboat rowed by a literal skeleton crew. Learn about horrific accidents, rumored curses, and even exorcisms of seafaring vessels. Read about beautiful ghosts dressed to dance in one ship's former ballroom, officers in their dress whites still hard at work, wet footprints left behind by ghosts enjoying a swimming pool no longer present, and mischievous ghosts just wanting to have some fun at the expense of the living. Find out why you shouldn't take a modern cruise ship for granted for it might be haunted, and discover some ghosts are just trying to be helpful and comforting in their own, sometimes twisted, ways. You'll also find true stories of haunted beaches across the globe, including: A beach in India next to a cremation ground where it seems tourists are drawn out into the water-and to their death. A beach in Singapore that was the site of multiple mass civilian executions in World War II, a tragedy that has been reenacted multiple times by the spirits of those involved. A stretch of beach in Canada haunted by a man who wasn't allowed to remain at rest in his chosen burial place by the sea. What seems to be a deceptively family friendly beach in Texas-at least by day! Find out about the types of ghosts that choose to haunt beaches, including aggressive sailors, frightening mermaid-like creatures, and spirits whose presence can be felt even more powerfully than if they were physically present. Once you finished this book of true ghost stories involving ships and beaches, you might find yourself afraid to go near the water...again. Ready to scare yourself senseless?

Truth is stranger than fiction, it is said. If so then Distant Horizons presents some of the strangest sea mysteries of all time. For it is not the product of uncritically passing along tales of the sea. It is the result of decades of research. The stories in this compendium are true, often presented with meticulous detail. Sometimes this explodes myth. Sometimes the facts reveal myth to be anemic by comparison. Famous ghost ships like the Mary Celeste and the Carroll A. Deering have become literary formula and economic rehash. But what are the actual facts? Thousands of derelicts once peppered the North Atlantic, but these two mystery ships have stood the test of time. What is really so unique about them? The Bermuda Triangle has earned its infamous reputation, but is it really to blame for some of its most famous victims? Did the Marine Sulphur Queen truly even vanish in the Triangle? What about the USS Cyclops? Could it truly be the American version of the HMS Bounty?
