Star of India is the oldest active sailing vessel in the world at over 158 years old. And she's one of the most haunted, a beacon to lost souls.

Join authors Faxon and Halvorsen as they share not only the history of this iron-hulled ship, but the frightening paranormal experiences from the staff and volunteers who help to care for Star of India. In this creative non-fiction piece, you'll hear the stories of several ghosts including Johnny the stowaway, now an active prankster, and the first Captain, still pacing the deck, his boot steps loud on dark nights.

In this ghost hunting adventure, prepare to dive into the lives of those lost aboard.

Review

"Captivating and eerie. From the menacing to the protective and playful, Faxon and Halvorsen introduce Star of India's ghostly passengers and crew, vividly and thoughtfully setting down the oral tradition of the world's oldest sailing vessel, a familiar sight at the Maritime Museum of San Diego in Southern California. You'll hear footsteps creaking on the deck and feel a chill on the back of your neck for days." -Stephanie Reali

Interesting blend of fact, fiction, and the haunted

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2021

Verified Purchase

Well written and researched. Are these facts or someone's very creative imagination? That is for the reader to decide. As with Ms Halvorsen's other books, it draws you in quickly and maintains your interest to the end - even leaving you with a desire for just one more story.

The stories depend more upon atmosphere and strange activity than upon actual "ghost" sightings. That gives this book a more plausible foundation. And there is a good amount of historical research to back up the supernatural occurrances.

And for an added bit, the stories take place on board a ship that is open to the public. So, if you are captivated, as I was by the yarns, you can take a trip to San Diego and explore for yourself. In fact, I might even see you there.

Ghost Stories with Historical Context

Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2021

Verified Purchase

"Lost Aboard" is a delightful combination of fictionalized ghost stories from the fabled Star of India, peppered with historical context of the ships past carrying spices from India or passengers to New Zealand. It gives the reader an intimate insight what life was like on a three-mast sailing ship in previous centuries. The author S. Faxon worked on the Star of India as a docent and educator, which gives the stories added authenticity.

Ghosts Ahoy!

Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2021

Ever have an encounter with a ghost? No? Well, if you want to have one, make your way to the Star of India at the Maritime Museum in San Diego. More than one of them are awaiting your visit.

Lost Aboard, by S. Faxon and Theresa Halvorsen, will provide you with an introduction in advance of your visit. There’s some backstory about the ship, the lives and personalities of the ghosts before and after they lost theirs, and the varying reactions of those who encounter these spirits. Even if you don’t read this book in preparation for coming face-to-ghost with a member of the spirit world, you’ll find the book, which is a quick, short read, fascinating and well worth your time and money.
