Summary

In an exclusive Members-Only episode we dive into the phenomena of ghost trains and ghost ships. In ghostlore, a ghost train is a phantom vehicle in the form of a locomotive or train. This phenomenon differs from other traditional forms of haunting, in that rather than being a fixed location where ghosts are claimed to be present, "the apparition is the entire train". From ghost trains to ghost ships, we also include a well-documented ghost ship where sailors had three well-documented sightings of a phantom ship and even climbed aboard the black vessel. We look deep into the archives and find real-life reports like the one from the Brooklyn Citizen in June of 1889, which tells the tale of several railroad employees who saw a phantom train that forever changed their careers. Become a member and listen to this one.
