"Ghost Hunt" by H. R. Wakefield

Bound for his sister’s wedding in Singapore, Mr Lawrence misses his scheduled passage and but finds a cargo ship to take him there instead. At first, the Wandering Star seems a fortunate alternative, but as the voyage continues there is more to contend with than rough seas. B. M. Croker's The Former Passengers is a classic nautical ghost story, rich in maritime atmosphere and mounting dread.This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “The Former Passengers” by B.
