About this listen

In 1947, a mysterious distress call echoed across the Strait of Malacca: "All officers, including captain, are dead...lying in chartroom and bridge. Possibly whole crew dead." Minutes later: "I die." When rescuers boarded SS Ourang Medan, they found a scene of horror- frozen corpses with twisted faces, no sign of struggle, and no clear cause of death. In this episode of The House Red, we explore one of the sea's most chilling unsolved mysteries.
