19-Weird Lit Tales: The eerie prediction of the Titanic's disaster

from Podcast Cuentos Oscuros

https://buymeacoffee.com/cuentososcuros In 1898, fourteen years before the sinking of the Titanic, Morgan Robertson wrote a novel called "Futility", or "The Wreck of the Titan". It describes a British ocean liner called the Titan, which was considered unsinkable and had an insufficient number of lifeboats. The story takes place in April, when the ship collides with an iceberg and sinks in the North Atlantic, resulting in the loss of almost all passengers, much like the Titanic. In addition, details such as the size of the ship, its speed, and the month of the disaster coincide. Because of these similarities, Robertson was accused of being a seer for the rest of his life. In reality, however, he knew the world of navigation so well because he had worked on ships for many years.
