Coffin Ships - Heartbreak Warning The Midnight Library

    • Society & Culture

Please find yourself the most comforting spot in The Reading Room this evening, My Dear Guest, and cuddle up warm with a wolf pup as we hear the forlorn tale of those who endured troubled times and terrible journeys onboard the dreaded "coffin ships"-- as well as those who sadly, did not survive. The people in this reading will be given the utmost respect. The accounts are true, and the reading carries a "heartbreak" warning due to its intense sadness and few graphic facts.
There are, however, excellent examples of human beings as role models, both horrific and nearly perfect. It's likely to be one of the only more serious readings we shall ever have. I thank you for attending. Yours Very Sincerely with Love, Miranda Merrick

Special Thanks to Sounds Like an Earful Music Supply for the amazing music AND sound design during this episode.
