‘The Ghost Pirates’, written in the year 1909, is one of the most popular novels by William Hope Hodgson and has been translated into several other languages around the world. The Mortzestus is reputed to be haunted but the crew dismisses the rumors as preposterous—at first. Two weeks out of port the rigging suddenly goes slack, a ghostly form arises from the sea, and shadows thicken around the vessel. The frightened sailors convinced that supernatural powers are afoot, plot mutiny and demand to be set ashore. But a dense mist descends around the ship, threatening to swallow the craft and its men without a trace. The desperate crew's chilling fate is recounted in this compulsive page-turner by William Hope Hodgson, a master of seafaring yarns. Rich in nautical language and lore, it combines an intriguing view of shipboard life with a suspenseful ghost story. Horror author Robert Weinberg noted the occult classic's compact prose style, hailing it as ‘one of the finest examples of the tightly written novel ever published’.
