However, New World 's Ghost Ship appears to be based on a more supernatural vessel: the Flying Dutchman, a ship from European Maritime legend doomed to sail forever.

New World isn't the first video game to add ghost ships , but it's certainly one of the most mysterious. According to legend, the Flying Dutchman was a ship that, for one reason or another, was cursed to never make it to port.

Some versions say the captain sold or bet his soul to the devil, while others say that murder and plague took out the crew and left the ship to sail onward without them. Whatever the case, the legend has made its mark on pop culture, with the Flying Dutchman playing a major role in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise alongside its tentacle-faced captain Davy Jones. While New World 's Ghost Ship is largely a mystery, a few hints in the lore suggest that the vessel is meant to be another version of the Flying Dutchman.

Also present in the game is the "Flying Dutchman" Painting decoration item, which players can place in their homes. Amazon Game Studios releases the November patch for New World, which includes healthy changes for the game's meta and overall experience. A late arrival to the gaming field who grew up in a household devoid of consoles.

Most of the partygoers had never been to the Ghost Ship warehouse before. One man climbed out a second story window, clinging to an electrical cord until it melted, dropping him to safety outside. Oakland fire crews rushed to the scene. As one engine crew crested a hill overlooking the fire on International Boulevard, a firefighter in the rig leaned over and told his colleague to prepare for the worst.

He had been inside the warehouse before and knew the building was a cluttered maze. When daylight broke after a difficult and nightlong firefight, and with the warehouse still smoldering, first responders stumbled upon piles of debris inside the 10,square foot building. Early on the morning of Dec. Families and friends gathered at a Red Cross shelter a few blocks away, awaiting news of what happened to their loved ones. It would take days for investigators to sift through the wreckage and officially identify the victims.

In the end, the death toll climbed to 36—making it the deadliest fire ever in Oakland, and one of the deadliest single-structure fires in U. Family members of some of the victims this week told The Oaklandside their wounds are still fresh.

While some would like to see the place turn into a memorial, others say affordable housing or a park would be appropriate. Most of them had never been there before. The exact cause of the fire was never determined, although investigators said it appeared to be electrical in nature.

But it was certainly fueled by the tonnage of pianos, organs, RVs, lumber and other items packed in the labyrinth-like space. There were no exit signs. The final moments of the Ghost Ship were spent in darkness. The fire had knocked out the power, investigators said. Eight of the partygoers were found wrapped in a rug on the first floor. The dance floor they were standing on had collapsed.

Autopsy reports later showed each of the victims died of smoke inhalation. Only one of them had lived there, along with about 25 other artists, renting from master tenant Derick Almena, who had signed a lease in November and turned a building zoned for commercial use into residences for people looking for cheaper rent as housing prices soared regionally.

Dodge grows suspicious and unnerved, leading him to shoot Ferriman, who appears dead but looks up when Dodge leaves. Down below, Munder is crushed between two gears while fixing a blocked pump. After seeing his remains, Epps sets explosives, just as Dodge shows up saying they should take the gold and run. Epps refuses, then suspiciously questions Dodge, who laughs and morphs into the demonic Ferriman revealing the former's fate.

Ferriman describes himself as a salvager of souls; a job he says he earned by a lifetime of sin. He explains that since Katie was a child and never committed a true sin, he cannot control her as he does the evil ghosts.

So long as the Antonia Graza remains afloat he can use it as a trap and keep "management" satisfied. Epps detonates the explosives and sinks the Graza.

Katie helps Epps escape the sinking ship. She is left in the debris as the souls trapped on the ship ascend to heaven. Drifting on the open sea, Epps is found by a cruise ship and returned to land. As she is loaded into an ambulance, she sees the battered crates of gold being loaded onto the cruise ship, followed by Ferriman.

He glares at Epps and carries on; she cries out as the ambulance doors close. The film first appeared in January , as a spec script called Chimera by Mark Hanlon. Originally, the film, as written, was a relatively bloodless psychological thriller as opposed to a more blatantly supernaturally-themed film.

Most notably, much of the film's gore is absent from the screenplay. The film would have focused on four salvage crew members who end up stranded aboard the ghost vessel they are scuttling the titular Chimera ; over the course of one night, each member - whether it be from panic, cabin fever, or supernatural forces - goes insane and plots to kill the other three members of the crew. In the above-mentioned script, Murphy is the "main killer" and the ship sinks as it runs on the rocks.

Murphy and Epps survive till the end but while the ship is sinking Murphy runs to take gold ingots. The weight and also the lost time bring death to Murphy. Like in the final version, Katie helps Epps to escape.

Over time, the script underwent rewrites, and the psychological aspects of the script were all jettisoned in favor of making the film a slasher. It has been suggested that "The cast signed on based on this original draft The film received mainly negative reviews on its theatrical release.
