Summary

All Aboard Dear Guests! Tonight, we are off on a dire and dreary seafaring adventure! First, there will be rumors of sightings of the Famous Ghost Ship, The Flying Dutchman. This ethereal ship has emerged out of the mists to strike fear and bestow doom upon its many beholders... and we are so here for it! Then, we will witness the building, sinking, and astonishing raising of Sweden's colossal warship, Vasa... including her dead, that you can visit today. Please join us! (Lifeboats will not be provided.)

Special Thanks to Sounds Like an Earful Music Supply for the amazing music AND sound design.
