    The Ghost Ship Carroll A. Deering
    Nov 24 2024
    In 1921, a five-masted schooner emerged from the mists off North Carolina's treacherous coast - a floating tomb devoid of life. Eleven souls had vanished without a trace, leaving behind an eerie tableau of abandonment. Tonight we delve into this chilling mystery and attempt to unravel a web of bizarre clues: inexplicably damaged equipment, missing shoreboats, and whispers of aberrant crew behavior from passing ships. Was it a bloodthirsty mutiny? Ruthless pirates? A clandestine rum-running operation gone awry? Or perhaps something far more sinister lurking in the depths of human nature - or beyond? The Carroll A. Deering is a haunting mystery, reminding us that some secrets of the sea may never be fully uncovered, leaving our imaginations to run wild with unsettling possibilities.

Entertaining and Informative

I really enjoy the stories covered on this podcast. I’ve not only been entertained but learned much I didn’t know before. Topics are certainly creepy and intriguing but I love that they cover the historical side of things and theories as well. My favorite podcast of all time!

Awesome

Amazing results with only three seasons. I've been able to open my mind to "Everything" I do now.

Best Podcast You'll Ever Hear

This is by far the best podcast I've ever listened too. The episodes are amazing. There are single episodes but some of my favorites are the ones where they DEEP DIVE on a topic. Meaning multipart episodes at least an hour a piece, so well researched. Lots of topics; Astonishing isn't only paranormal! Legends can be human too, and even episodes you may not think will be up your alley have a way of sucking you in. Epic banter between the Hosts (Scott and Forrest) , it's clear they are such good friends and people. The research crew are great, Tess and the arch do such a fantastic job. Their fb page is the best run group I've been in, it makes for a great community experience. There are so many episodes already out so if you're looking for a binge, you're in luck!

The Guys Rock- Well Researched and Presented

Excellent show! A show I can re listen to again and again. It's clear that they love what they do, and even on the episodes that I don't expect to love the topic, they find a way to reel me in.

highly recommended

Been following this podcast for most of a year now, it's a great show, funny and entertaining, plus I love the level of detail they go into with these topics and the compassion they bring to the real human elements behind most legends.

Definitely recommend.
