The Ghost Pirates by William Hope Hodgson
"The Ghost Pirates" by William Hope Hodgson is a horror novel published in 1909. Told as the testimony of Jessop, sole survivor of the doomed ship Mortzestus, the story chronicles strange events that escalate in frequency and terror. Mysterious beings—never clearly described—gradually commandeer the vessel as the crew struggles between disbelief and mounting dread. Hodgson leaves their true nature ambiguous, suggesting they may be ghosts or entities from another dimension that has
breached into our world, though their origin and purpose remain unexplained. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
