A list of ghost pirate ships in RPGs

Tales of Vesperia

Wild Arms

But what could possible strike such fear in the stout heart of a pirate?

Vampires.

As we wander the decks of this forgotten relic, the pieces start falling into place. Vampires love wealth and loot almost as much as pirates, so it's likely that they crossed paths while tracking down some treasure and the vampires decimated the crew. Now the pirates' spirits haunt their own remains, tormented by the unusual fate that befell them. Are we making this all up? It's up to you to judge…




The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

Both Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass have great examples of both pirates and ghost ships, but we're choosing Phantom Hourglass here because it shows our very favorite pirate on board a classic phantom boat.
