Ghosts on Royal Caribbean Ships?

[Jingerwoppy]

Anyone ever hear any tales about someone running into a ghost on an RCI cruise ship?

Ready for some ghost stories🙃

Semi related, it's so stupid there is no deck 13 on most cruise ships.

A ghost took my card and spent entirely too much in the casino while my wife and I were asleep. He then returned to the room and left the room and my clothes smelling like smoke and liquor.  I was a victim but my wife doesn’t believe me.  Stupid ghost.

Some have it, some don't.

MSC has a Deck 13, at least on several of their ships that I have been on.

In Italy the number 13 does not have an unlucky connotation.

Quantum class has a deck 13.  My last cruise I snored so loudly in my deck 13 cabin the ghost gave up and moved to a nearby Princess ship.

If you don't clean your hands before entering Windjammer, the Ghost of Washy Washy Past will haunt you

There are many office buildings without a 13th.floor.

I played two seasons of Semi Pro Basketball and requested number 13 for my jersey.

The unlucky number in Italy is 17 and therefore you won´t find a deck 17 on MSC ships. But they do have deck 13.

And you don’t find any cabin numbers ending xx17 on MSC ships either 

 

The reason XVII is 17 in Roman numerals and an anagram of this is VIXI which means I have lived.

Our street numbering goes from 11 to 15 on the odd side of the street

Perhaps cabin 9062 on Brilliance of the seas. You may recall that was the cabin of George Smith who met his untimely death on Brilliance in 2005. 
 

Perhaps the ghost is drinking Jager Meister.

All because on the morning of Friday, October 13, 1307, King Philip IV of France had scores of the Knights Templars arrested including the order’s Grand Master Jacques de Molay. Many were sent to the Tower of Chinon where they were brutally tortured until they confessed to false charges, which included heresy, homosexuality, financial corruption, devil-worshipping, fraud, spitting on the cross, and more.

 

There are several numbers in the Asian cultures that are considered unlucky.  I wonder what the cruise lines do in those markets?

Dumb.  So in certain areas, do ages of people jump from 12 to 14 or 16 to 18?  Why not?  Because it's silly, possibly?

 

I'm at 79 Crown and Anchor points.  I should have skipped point 13 or 17.  I would be diamond right now!

The Queen Mary (now a hotel in Long Beach) wins the prize for being the ship with the most ghost sightings.  It was used during WW2 to transport soldiers and participated in the DDay invasion.  There is a famous door #13 in the engine room that crushed to death a worker.  His ghost supposedly appears regularly.

I once encountered a ghost at a bar on a cruise ship. I asked it what is was doing there, it said it came for the boos. It did seem to be in good spirits.

I know some nonbelievers think I am nuts but my husband (formerly a non-believer until we lived together) is convinced I attract spirits.   
 

I did have an experience on the Queen Mary at the indoor pool where a little girl supposedly drowned (though I didn’t know that at the time).  The ship was both beautiful and creepy in some places, but the pool… 🫣.

I was once in the Windjammer late at night and was visited by the Spirit of Midnight Buffets Past. Shook me to my core but I’ve since changed my ways.
