The Cormorant Queen

A Maritime Ghost Story · 1847

The emigrant barque Cormorant Queen vanished in the North Atlantic on the night of October 12, 1847 — carrying 214 souls bound for Halifax. No distress signal was recorded. No survivors were recovered. The wreck was never found.

For 175 years, the official log said: lost to storm and sea.

The log lied.
