On the Atlantic shore of Canada, two sailors push a dory into the rough surf as a storm rolls in with an ominous sky. Under a black light, a three-masted “ghost ship” appears on the horizon, seemingly on fire.
The design is based on the legend of an apparition that has appeared in Chaleur Bay and in the Northumberland Strait for more than 200 years, described as a glowing ball of fire or a manned, three-masted ship with sails aflame.
