Seafaring has always been a dangerous game: lives can be lost, disasters can strike and even the hardiest ships can sink.
In some instances, vessels are found after tragedy has hit, adrift across the ocean with their crew members nowhere to be seen.
These so-called ‘ghost ships’, or vessels discovered without a living soul on board, have featured in sailor’s tales and folklore for centuries
But that’s not to say stories of these unmanned ships
are all fictional – far from it.
Here are some terrifying tales of ghost ships from
throughout history.
1. The Flying Dutchman tale relays that in the 17th century, the vessel’s captain, Hendrick Vanderdecken, sailed the ship into a deadly storm off the Cape of Good Hope, vowing to defy God’s wrath and continue on his voyage.
The Flying Dutchman then suffered a collision and sank, the story goes, with the ship and its crew forced to sail the region’s waters for eternity as punishment.
2. SS Mary Celeste
On 25 November 1872, the British ship Dei Gratia spotted a vessel adrift in the Atlantic, near the Strait of Gibraltar. It was an abandoned ghost ship, the now infamous SV Mary Celeste.
The Mary Celeste was in relatively good condition, still under sail, and plenty of food and water were found on board. And yet none of the ship’s crew could be found
The fate of its passengers has never been confirmed.
3. HMS Eurydice
Disaster struck the Royal Navy in 1878, when an unexpected blizzard hit southern England out of the blue, sinking the HMS Eurydice and killing more than 350 of its crew members.
Decades after the sinking of the Eurydice in 1878, sailors and visitors reported sightings of the ship’s ghost sailing around the waters of the Isle of Wight, where the ship and its crew perished.
4. SS Ourang Medan
Upon investigating, the SS Ourang Medan was discovered adrift in the Strait of Malacca, in Southeast Asia. As the SOS message had warned, all of the ship’s crew were dead, apparently with expressions of horror etched across their faces.
It’s since been theorized that the crew of the Ourang Medan was killed by the vessel’s cargo of sulphuric acid. Other rumors involve a secret shipment of Japanese biological weapons accidentally killing the crew.
5. Jian Seng Ship
More recently, in 2006, a vessel labeled Jian Seng was discovered by Australian officials, yet it had no crew on board and no evidence of its existence could be found in world over.
What was a Pirate Ship?
During the so-called "Golden Age" of piracy (roughly 1700-1725), thousands of pirates terrorized shipping lanes all over the world, particularly in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.
In one sense, there was no such thing as a “pirate” ship. There was no shipyard where pirates could go and commission and pay for a pirate ship to their specifications
A pirate ship is defined as any vessel whose sailors and crew are engaged in piracy.
Thus, anything from a raft or canoe to a massive frigate or man of war could be considered a pirate vessel.
Weapons were very valuable. They were the "tools of the trade" for pirates. A pirate ship without cannons and a crew without pistols and swords were ineffective, so it was the rare pirate victim that got away with his weapon stores unplundered
In addition to these much-desired items, pirates, like any mariners, needed to constantly replace nautical equipment like ropes, tackles, sails, anchors
