SS Ourang Medan

from Arcanum Obscura · host Obscure Kitten

In today's episode we talk about the Ourang Medan. A ship that sent out a disturbing distress call via morse code. A ship afloat full of bodies, with the look of terror and screaming upon all their faces. Some say the story is true while others say it isn't, but there's a bit of evidence lending credibility to both sides of the story which make it more intriguing. The fate of the ship and crew was never determined, due to the ship exploding and sinking. There are two prevalent theories and of course, we add in a couple of our own, and the coal peddler returns!
