  • S4,E5: Don't Look Up

    [ S.S. Ourang Medan]

    In June 1947, a chilling SOS went out to almost a hundred merchant ships on the Straits of Malacca. The ship, Silver Star, answered the distressed call - and what they found was a scene of horror and mystery that has continued to baffle researchers & historians to this day.

  • S4,E4: The Devil's Barkentine

    The “Felon Fleet” truly was hell unleashed on the open sea. This armada of ships was converted into floating jails and filled to the brim with the convicted. And one ship amongst them all stood out in her horror - the "Success". Armed with the most ghastly torture devices that could be imagined, it's little wonder that the cries of her prisoners still send shockwaves throughout history.

  • S4,E3: Pythagorean of the Paranormal

    The Bermuda Triangle has long been lauded as a nautical area of mystery and horror. Ships and whole crews disappearing, never to be seen again. Airplanes vanishing with no trace of wreckage or reason. It is a puzzle that we've grappled with for quite some time. But in today's episode, we take you to a place with an even greater depth of mystery. Where an equal amount of disappearances have occurred - yet no one seems to talk about it! Today we introduce you to the troubled waters of the Lake Michigan Triangle.

  • S4, E2: Twins

    Photography of supernatural events has always been a highly contested and controversial topic. Since cameras were first invented, users have been attempting to catch a still-life glimpse of the other side. "Spirit photography" became all the rage and critics were quick to debunk the final products. But in today's story, we share with you the legend of the S. S. Watertown - and the photographs of a paranormal experience that, to this day, remains unexplained.

  • S4, E1: The Lights of Presque

    All lighthouses are haunted. There's just something about them that seems to attract that kind of paranormal energy. Perhaps it's the long hours of isolation and solitude. Perhaps its the anxious turbulence of a keeper holding steadfast watch over the ships at sea.  Whatever it may be - today we will explore two sister lighthouses and the hauntings that attached to them. Join us as we begin this season's journey into "Spirit Ships & Haunted Harbors" on the shorelines of Presque Isle, Michigan.

  • S3, E7: Lost & Found

    There are 42 cemeteries in the New Orleans area - all with stories to tell. However, in 2002, when the final resting place of over 150,000 souls was threatened with being turned into a city bus stop, the denizens of the earth decided to cry out at the injustice. The disturbances in the area became so intense that the city called in a psychic medium to investigate. What they would uncover would change the way the City That Survives would grieve its past forever.

  • S3, E6: Clink

    One of the oldest roads in New Orleans has called Bienville. In days past it was called Shell Road. And on this road, in the outskirts of town, a grizzled old timer was walking into a trap.

    Despite hidden treasure, a robbery turned to murder, and one last family reunion with a ghost, this story seems to have been forgotten by most, but not Shadow Carriers. Hear the rarely told tale of…the Californian!
