One such story is that of the <em>SS Valencia<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One night in January 1906, the passenger steamer was taking a routine trip from San Francisco to Seattle. A fierce storm deprived the crew of stars, leaving them unable to navigate the waters. The high winds of the storm battered the ship against the rocks and reefs, causing the ship to begin flooding. In a panic, the crew tried to escape the sinking ship via lifeboats. However, six of the boats flipped over, and another disappeared. 136 people, including crew, women, and children, passed away because of the disaster. Explorers who hike the West Coast Trail to the coastline can see pieces of the wreckage. They may also witness <a href=\"https:\/\/mynorthwest.com\/3326151\/the-wreck-of-the-valencia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ghost ships<\/a> and lost life boats, according to rumors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-salem-express\"><em>Salem Express<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Diving_Salem_Express-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Diving_Salem_Express-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Diving_Salem_Express-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Diving_Salem_Express-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Diving_Salem_Express-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Diving_Salem_Express-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Salem Express [Red Sea, Egypt]<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em>Salem Express<\/em> is a tragedy that happened in the Red Sea. The Salem Express was a passenger ferry for people and their cars. It wrecked in 1991 off the coast of Egypt after getting <a href=\"https:\/\/gue.com\/blog\/wreck-salem-express\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">caught in a storm<\/a>. It hit a reef and sank within 20 minutes. Divers can go down and see much of the wreckage today. You will still find cars, luggage, and more inside the ship. Divers have claimed to hear children laughing and cars revealing while <a href=\"https:\/\/wanderwisdom.com\/news\/scuba-diver-hears-voices\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inside the ship.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-uss-kittiwake\"><em>USS Kittiwake<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/27970524362_87d45a7d6c_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/27970524362_87d45a7d6c_b.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/27970524362_87d45a7d6c_b-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/27970524362_87d45a7d6c_b-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/27970524362_87d45a7d6c_b-320x240.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em>USS Kittiwake<\/em> is likely one of the most well-known wrecks of all time, especially in the Caribbean. It is off of Seven Mile Beach in Grand Cayman, Mexico. The USS Kittiwake was a submarine rescue ship built in the 1940s and officially retired in the 1990s. Now, it is part of an artificial reef for divers to explore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the USS Kittiwake\u2019s sinkage was intentional, it holds decades of history inside its metal walls. One of the most exciting missions the <em>USS Kittiwake<\/em> was tasked with was recovering the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scubadiving.com\/history-grand-cayman-kittiwake-shipwreck\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">black box<\/a> that was lost in the <em>Challenger<\/em> space shuttle\u2019s explosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-patriot-and-theodosia-burr-alston\">The Patriot and Theodosia Burr Alston<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Patriot\u2019s shipwreck is actually less interesting than the passengers on board. It\u2019s believed that Aaron Burr\u2019s daughter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geriwalton.com\/patriots-disappearance-and-theodosia-burr-alston\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Theodosia<\/a> was on this fatal ship. Fans of <em>Hamilton<\/em> are probably putting the pieces of the puzzle together now. This wreck came in 1813 and is still a true mystery today. The ship was never found; all theories of the sunken ship are just speculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theodosia Burr Alston was traveling from <a href=\"http:\/\/northcarolinashipwrecks.blogspot.com\/2012\/04\/schooner-patriot-and-mystery-of.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">North Carolina<\/a> to New York to visit her father, Aaron Burr, after she had lost a newborn son. Burr had already been through a treacherous history with his illegal duel and killing of Alexander Hamilton. Theodosia had visited her father multiple times throughout his trials, but this tragedy came years later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people think pirates overran the ship, while others believe it was a storm, as many other ships all victim to. What we do know is that in 1869, a doctor was presented with an oil portrait of a young woman in lieu of payment. However, the <a href=\"https:\/\/northcarolinaghosts.com\/coast\/portrait-theodosia-burr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">valid owner<\/a> of the painting refused and claimed she must take the portrait to her father in New York. The woman ran off into the sea with the painting, and it was washed back on shore a day later. Now, it is in the <a href=\"https:\/\/walpole.library.yale.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lewis Walpole Library<\/a> for all to admire and ponder its true origins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rms-titanic\">RMS Titanic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1327\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The_Titanic_at_Southampton_england.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The_Titanic_at_Southampton_england.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The_Titanic_at_Southampton_england-300x207.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The_Titanic_at_Southampton_england-1024x708.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The_Titanic_at_Southampton_england-768x531.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beach-homes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The_Titanic_at_Southampton_england-1536x1062.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The RMS Titanic is arguably the most famous shipwreck in history. So much so that people are still visiting its wreckage today, some successful and some not. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/Titanic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Titanic\u2019s history<\/a> is very well known and has had multiple media pieces made about it. However, some of the more untold stories are the ones of ghosts who still walk the Titanic\u2019s decks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the more common phenomena is sailors seeing orbs floating above the wreckage itself. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hauntedrooms.co.uk\/orbs-of-light-explained-what-is-an-orb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Orbs<\/a> are little balls of light energy that are said to signify a supernatural presence. Another unexplainable experience is that of some submarines that have traveled under the water near the Titanic. They have heard strange signals on their radios, including <a href=\"https:\/\/boroughsofthedead.com\/ghosts-of-the-sea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SOS messages<\/a>. However, these messages have never been trackable or sent from a reliable source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most bone-chilling Titanic story came from 1977 when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.encyclopedia-titanica.org\/ghostly-tales-from-the-titanic.html#:~:text=In%201977%2C%20Second%20Officer%20Leonard,%E2%80%93%20not%20unpleasant%2C%20just%20odd.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Second Officer Leonard Bishop<\/a> gave a tour of the wreck to a man. Bishop claimed the man was British, soft-spoken, and a bit odd. It wasn\u2019t until years later when Bishop was shown a picture of \u201cthe man,\u201d that he thought of him again. He told his friend that he knew him and had given him a tour. However, the friend laughed as the photo was of the captain of the Titanic, Edward Smith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Shipwrecks hold so much history, but their tales can also hold goosebump-creating stories.
