I’ve recently posted web sites about haunted houses, haunted cars and haunted air travel.

Lets not neglect haunted ocean liners, okay?

Anybody for a nice, relaxing ocean cruise?

So why not book a room aboard the RMS Queen Mary out in California? Not very haunted if this article is to be believed, but still interesting.

What about ships being the ghosts? This article talks about 6 ships that seem to appear and then vanish.

IF those 6 tales aren’t enough, here is a site that has 10 tales of “Ghost ships” to read about.

Then there is America’s most haunted ship, the USS Hornet CV-12, moored in Alameda California.

If you like WW II aircraft carriers, there is also the “Blue Ghost” USS Lexington, CV-16 permanantlly moored in Corpus Christi Texas. She too is very haunted.
