Bad. Dumb. A waste of time. I knew these would be hit or miss but this was more of a miss than I had expected from any of the lot.

A good, creepy ghost story. By not providing an explanation at the end, I think Cowper costs the story some of its impact, but the whole setting on the ruined ship in the dark is done very effectively.
