The Ghosts of the S.S. Watertown
Working on an oil tanker in the ’20s wasn’t an easy job. In 1924, James Courtney and Michael Meehan were crew members of the S.S. Watertown and while cleaning a cargo tank, were overcome by fumes and killed. They were buried at sea by the crew, but to their astonishment, the ghostly faces of the two men appeared in the waves the next day. After several crew members saw the faces, the captain ordered a photograph taken and the negative was checked for tampering, only to find that the images were genuine. The ghosts of the men were looking at them from beyond.
