Sunday Jul 24, 2022
Sunday Jul 24, 2022
The SS Bannockburn sank during a storm on Lake Superior in 1902. Twenty sailors died in the disaster. It's one of the greatest mysteries of the Great Lakes. To this day, no one has found its wreck.
But the Bannockburn lives on as a ghost ship. The most recent sighting happened in 2016. She's nicknamed The Flying Dutchman of the Great Lakes (or Lake Superior in some cases).
Get the dark history, legend and more.
