My Victorian Nightmare

Ep. 61 - The Ghost Ship, Mary Celeste


Listen Later

On today’s episode, Genevieve will discuss one of the most confounding and eery nautical mysteries of all time: The Ghost ship, Mary Celeste. This was a brigantine ship owned by Captain Benjamin Briggs that was found floating all by its lonesome in the Atlantic in 1872, with all of its crew, the captain, his wife and baby - nowhere to be found.
