Summary

TAKE THE LISTENER SURVEY NOW: https://bit.ly/48qVym6 PRE-SAVE NAT'S BOOK NOW: https://bit.ly/49bQqUx Welcome to “Episode 245: The Hauntings of the Drake Passage”! At the bottom of the globe, between the southernmost tip of Chile and the northernmost islands of Antarctica, lies a treacherous stretch of ocean that has claimed the lives of thousands of sailors. With waves up to 65 feet high and winds clocking in at 70 miles per hour, the violence of the Drake Passage can only be successfully navigated by the most experienced of ship captains. Beneath these churning blue-green waters, there are an estimated 800 hidden shipwrecks filled with forgotten treasures and floating skeletons, cursed to remain in this dark and frigid purgatory for the rest of time. Above the waves, unlucky sailors passing through the area must fight to stay alive as their ships rock violently against rogue waves, unpredictable currents, and howling tempests. As they struggle to traverse the passage successfully, many crew members swear they can hear the anguished voices of the drowned mixed with the whistling wind. Sea monsters, ghost ships, and skeleton sailors all populate this forgotten region. Come aboard the SS Hauntie on this week’s episode of Let’s Get Haunted as we explore the ghost stories of the Drake Passage!
