Ghosts at Sea: Paranormal Shipwrecks & Curses is really a rather pedestrian ghost documentary. It's primarily just "storytellers" and eyewitnesses describing ghostly encounters, most of which are rather mundane, alongside re-creations of those events.

The trailer led me to expect that a significant amount of the video would consist of ghost-hunting investigations, but there are just two rather short and unimpressive examples of such footage. Someone standing by the sea at night describing cold spots is not exactly my idea of compelling evidence.

The fact that these were ghost stories I had never heard before -- all of these tales come from Nova Scotia and Newfoundland -- was pretty much the video's only saving grace in terms of keeping my interest. The nautical angle to all of the stories does differentiate this documentary from others in the field, but there's really nothing memorable to be found here.

At the end of the day, Ghosts at Sea is only mildly interesting.
