A ghost ship, in fiction, is a ship crewed by the not-living. The term may also refer to a real ship that was reported to have been seen – often as an apparition – after sinking, or to a ship found floating with no crew on board.
Ghost Ships are usually linked to shipwrecks and disasters. The ghost ship usually appears at the scene of the disaster on a stormy night.

The main legend of ghost ships among mariners has been the Flying Dutchman, a captain condemned to eternally sail the seas. The legend has inspired several works. The movie 'ghost ship' is quite good also.

Ships have been found on the ocean without anyone aboard them with the food still on the plates in the galley. as if the ship was abandoned in haste.
