The Sea Phantom
This episode begins with a seaman
finding an intruder in the captain's cabin. Isaac challenges the man,
but when he takes closer look at the figure he realizes that it is not
a man at all. It is a skeleton with bleached white bones, empty eye
sockets and a horrible gaping mouth.
Isaac locks the monster inside the cabin and rushes to fetch the
captain, who is loath to believe the seaman’s story. Isaac
assures the captain that he will soon see for himself, but when the
captain unlocks the door his cabin is empty. He soon realizes though,
that somebody has been in there because there is writing on his slate.
The words are written in a style of English that was used over two
hundred years ago and the message informs the captain that he must
change the course of the ship. The name at the bottom of the board
reads Jonathan Strange; a name the captain knows well, Strange used to
be captain of a vessel called The Sea Phantom and it was lost at sea in
1718.
