Ghosts Stories from the Sea II

[@jonfox1919]

This channel never disappoints because it always puts quality over quantity. It's the perfect antidote for all the tiktok and Reddit creepypasta rubbish that some other contemporary channels harvest just for easy content.

[@spartygirl84]

Thank you! I so agree. REAL creepy stories. Not that fake atuff. I cannot be creeped out when I know it's all fake (unless like Alien franchise stuff or something 😂😌😂) lol

[@deborahbarry8250]

You are so true. I've tried to listen to many of those videos. They come no way never the quality of this channel. Stories and narration

[@-Reagan]

The first story: Sounds more like delirium tremens from withdrawal from alcohol, which can kill you, rather than delirium from over-drinking.

[@babybookworm003]

That’s what I thought if the sailor went cold turkey

[@DreamsAreLies]

If anything bad or spooky happens to me, I want you and your soothing voice narrating it please. Having my dignity in tact after death is important to me and you’re perfect for the job. Thanks for the quality entertainment, you smooth dude, you.

Cape may is my hometown and 3 generations of my family are buried in that cemetery going back to early 1800s I’ve heard this story before though all my times there never encountered him but I loved it was included here.

[@quietstories98]

When you said the surgeon was being payed to get the body of an indigenous person for study my heart dropped thinking some poor woman had been murdered.... must admit i was very relived to hear the woman was already dead but still very saddened at the desecration of her body and grave.

[@darensmith5270]

My favorite sea story is about the Hurricane that devestated Galveston, Texas in the early 1900's! An actor from a New England state had always said he wanted to be buried back in his New England birthplace. Unfortunately he died and was buried in Texas. The book Isaac's Storm told the story about how the hurricane swamped a cemetery and a number of caskets were released from the cemetery and ended up in the Gulf of Mexico. The caskets got caught up in the Gulf Stream. The actors coffin ⚰️ ended up off the New England coast near the town where he had been born!!!!!

[@adrienebailey9010]

Wow that's creepy. I love these stories but I'm afraid of my shadow.

[@daginezho1637]

He probably influenced the waves and current to get his coffin back to New England 🤷

[@thomasmann9216]

You included some truly beautiful shots of the ocean and sky. Thank you.

[@CorvoFG]

It was probably the withdrawal, not the booze that causes Bilson’s mania.

[@CuriousWorldProductions]

Sounds far more likely,

[@gerry5134]

Yeah he was seeing pink elephants or worse !

[@ladykoiwolfe]

Agreed. Withdrawal can do crazy things to a person. He might have been fine if he had eased off instead of cold turkey.

[@Newmarioxxor]

This is great! It's surprisingly difficult to find good and soberly recounted ghost stories on youtube

[@lauriemarie6902]

I almost got sucked out to sea. Thank goodness my grandmother was there and saved me. Wicked current.

[@Boggythefroggy]

That first story actually makes me think the alcoholic sailer might’ve been experiencing psychosis from stopping his drinking cold turkey, since you can actually die without medical attention nowadays if someone who drinks heavily all the time tries to fully stop.

[@-Reagan]

I think (and commented) the very same thing! Sounds more likely delirium tremens (DT’s) from alcohol withdrawal, which, you’re exactly right, can kill you - rather than delirium from being drunk. It’s sad, he seems to have been trying so hard to please his captain. Only to be condemned for it and tied up, which might have contributed to his death of heart failure.

[@lauraholmes2402]

I remember watching a programme following paramedics that had a case like this. A very heavy drinker went cold turkey and his wife had to call an ambulance because he just stopped and went catatonic and couldn’t stop shaking. The paramedics had to give him a beer to bring him out of it, which sounds counterproductive but he’d have probably died without it. They said it was admirable that he wanted to stop, but he needed professional help because his drinking was so heavy suddenly depriving his body of it shocked it.

[@itallia666]

Im sure the word you used in the " Johnny " story, you pronounced as ' Forecastle' is actually said as ' Fo-c'sle' like fow- k- sel. I ive seen it written & the word looks like Forecastle but isnt pronounced that way. As many naval terms go way back in British tradition & how the spoken word sounded in those days esp among sailors a kind of shortened version of naval terms were used & remain so today. Like the word Gunwales is pronounced Gunnels. Thank you very much for another brilliant video. I do look forward to every one you bring you for us.

[@dianne11ca]

Thank you for the clarification of these pronunciations. And yes, another brilliant video. :D

[@itallia666]

@@dianne11ca thank you for replying, i never mean to sound disrespectful in my comments regarding pronounciation only wanting, as i myself would want to know, how something written is different to how its said,as it facinates me why the discrepancy? Unfortunately many people send me vitriolic replies telling me to mind my own business. I can accept some people dont or cant take a little pointer to the right direction & ive never worded my comment in any negative way or sounded belittling. Ive been corrected many times by others if ive made a mistake & im really grateful & thank them for pointing out my error, its how we learn after all. So im pleased you have taken my advice on old naval terms in good spirit. I only learned of them myself after reading about words written but pronounced very differently & in the book it had sections dealing with things such as naval terms or medical terms, place names, etc. I do love your channel, i know as you've said to me before, you cant upload as often as you'd wish but im fine with that. Id rather have quality over quantity anytime & your channel Never disappoints, its always top notch. With many thanks for all yr hard work.

[@dianne11ca]

@@itallia666 You did not sound disrespectful at all. I would have done the same. I love language, and most people would prefer to know if they have pronounced something wrong, and you pointed it out very respectfully, and you offered a background, too, so I learned something, too. Enjoy your day, and forget the haters. Keep on being you.

[@itallia666]

Well seems we are getting more than ghosts stories from this channel. Useful lessons in the English language as well. Thanks.

[@sharlharmakhis280]

The 'Phantom Diver' one read as... weirdly sweet? It's almost like the diver's ghost was checking up on the living divers.

[@chrissy529]

I love these classic ghost stories from you. You seems to put in so much work and research that it's organic and nothing like the others on KZbin. I wish you could put out videos back to back but with the research and you having a life outside of this and all makes it totally understandable and appreciated. Thank You!

[@dinleyg]

As a recent listener to your Channel, I am now hooked. I bypass all videos until I can hear your voice, then I know it's going to be 'an on the edge of your seat' listen. Superb oration and research. JWD (jolly well done) (*_*)

[@hollymartens8059]

It was Bilsons abstinence from alcohol that drove him into delirium, not overindulgence.

[@littleblackcar]

Was just getting on here to say that: This is classic alcoholic withdrawal. This is literally why you're not supposed to stop drinking cold turkey if you're a heavy alcoholic.

[@chiamia58]

I found you channel two weeks ago and have been watching a couple of videos every night. Awesome content and very interesting.

[@littleredwitch]

Bilson died from a sudden withdrawal from alcohol. It is well known that withdrawal from alcohol must be done gradually in order to avoid delirium tremens or death.

[@danielhicks4826]

Not if it was like in the same day or within 24-48 hours though most likely ya know, I guess iys possible but seemed to be implied it happened suddenly, maybe though.

[@Moneytane1976]

Guest - Well get your ghost ass and up here and catch some rays, what is it with you ghosts and hiding in cold dark basements and shit, no wonder you guys freak the living out - you would rock if you were partying in the sunlight and scaring us as you cast no shadow.

That last one, his wife was so inconsiderate. She disregarded his wishes just because she wanted him next to her. She should have had herself buried next to him.

[@KatheHanna]

I'm very glad the woman in the second story got a proper re-burial. that story could have ended much worse

[@Moneytane1976]

Reminds me of the catchy cry of us indigenous peoples and "Museums" and "Scientists" of the white race - How long until our graves become an artefact pit. Plus all the studying in those days was disrepsectful, I mean sawing her up and no doubt back in Europe to remark about primitive and backwards these people were etc.

[@benjackson1077]

Please do a podcast, these stories are awesome

[@phils4634]

Interesting and very well researched as always. It is very noticeable that ( with the exception of the Johnny item, which itself has plenty of precedent), all the "ghosts" did NOT interact with observers to any noticeable extent. This certainly seems to be very consistent in the real world, with observers (often not exactly willing!) noting that whatever they saw was not interested (or even seemed to notice) their presence, which adds credence to the "stone tape" hypothesis - that what we "see" (or rather our brain perceives) may be analogous to a recording, either triggered by our presence, or simply "replaying" on a continuous basis, presumably forever? Currently we really don't know what is going on, and the rather sensationalist "Ghost Hunter" programmes on the TV do nothing to provide useful, hard data, which might cast some light onto what is very much an unexplored area simply because it has been tainted by sensationalism.

[@Useaname]

There's several theories, and all could be correct. Your theory is certainly credible and would explain why these residual recordings fade over time. There's many instances of ghost sightings become less frequent, with the ghost gradually, over many years, becoming just a faded outline, then a shadow, then eventually just the sound of them is left. When that fades a presence is the only thing felt. Then even that goes. Another is the time slip theory, whereby a ghost is seen because of a time differential. That would explain why some people can see ghosts who can also see them, and why the ghost will often appear shocked or afraid at the sight of the modern looking person suddenly visible to them. It's not a ghost in this case, but an actual living person from the past. It would also explain why these "ghosts" appear to be very real and in colour with definitive outlines.

[@phils4634]

@@Useaname Thank you for that insight. I believe this Channel has also covered time-slip cases, which is in itself interesting. Do you have any thoughts on why some people can "reliably" see ghosts / apparitions, whilst others either cannot, or have only seen the one or two "ghosts"? I fall into the "once only" category, and frankly once is enough for me! 😀

Yep. What does it look like and what is its botanical name ?

[@johndavies1090]

Something odd about the Pandora story struck me. Firstly, what is the flag being flown from her stern in the photo? At a quick glance it looks like the Stars and Stripes, not a White Ensign, but that wouldn't have been on a British ship. The Government wouldn't have 'pleaded with the crew' to make contact with the other ships - as a RN vessel she'd have been ordered to do so. |And the last puzzle is that line about her 'owner' agreeing to the detour - A Royal Navy vessel doesn't have an owner (save, technically the monarch). That all makes it sound more like she was a private steam yacht rather than a warship.
