When they arrived, the Coast Guard found that the ship was completely abandoned. Navigation equipment and a notebook is lost, as well as two lifeboats, but otherwise there are no any signs of fraud. A massive investigation by the U.S. government followed, which found that several other ships have mysteriously disappeared around the same time. Some theories put forward at last, the most popular is that the victims of a pirate ship or rumrunners. Others suggest that it may be the cause of rebellion, as the first pair Deering known to bear some hostility to the Captains, but no proof has even been found. The mystery surrounding the ghost ship has prompted wild speculation, and many argue that the paranormal activity may have been responsible, citing the ship through the Bermuda Triangle known as evidence that such phenomena may be to blame the other world.

6. The Octavius (Atlantic)
Although now considered more legend than anything else, the story of Octavius remains one of the most famous of all ghost ship story. The story dates back to 1775, when it is said that a whaling ship called the Herald stumbled across Octavius floating aimlessly off the coast of Greenland. Crewmembers of the Herald rose Octavius, where they found the bodies of the crew and passengers all frozen by the arctic cold. Most notably, the crew discovered the ship's captain was still sitting at his desk, mid completing a log entry from 1762, which means that Octavius had been floating for 13 years. According to legend, he eventually discovered that the captain had risked to make a quick return to England from the East through the Northwest Passage, but that ship has become trapped in the ice. If true, this would mean that Octavius had completed part of the Atlantic as a ghost ship, its crew and captain of the long dead from exposure to the elements.

9.The Mary Celeste
No doubt the most famous of all real-life ghost ship Mary Celeste is a merchant ship found in homeless and adrift in the Atlantic Ocean in 1872. The ship was in seaworthy condition, with all the screens are still awake and full of food stores in the cargo, but his boat, the captain's log book and, more importantly, the entire crew, disappeared mysteriously. There are no signs of struggle, and personal belongings of crew and cargo of more than 1500 barrels of alcohol was touched, apparently ruling out the possibility of piracy as an explanation. In the years since the bizarre discovery, a number of theories have been proposed about the possible fate of Mary Celeste crew. These include that their passengers were killed by tornado, that the crew rebelled, or even eating flour contaminated with fungi carry all passengers to hallucinate and become crazy. The most likely theory remains that the storm or some kind of technical problems led before his time leaving the crew to the ship in lifeboats, and that they later died at sea. However, the mystery surrounding the Mary Celeste has created a lot of wild speculation, and others have suggested everything from ghosts to sea monsters and the kidnapping of foreigners may be an explanation.
