Ghost Ship Trivia Quiz

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the salvage tug boat that is on its way back to Anchorage, only to be detoured?

Answer: Arctic Warrior

The Arctic Warrior is a tug boat run by Murphy. Murphy is portrayed by actor Gabriel Byrne. Byrne has portrayed many people in his career. He has been Ptolemy, Christopher Columbus, Mussolini, a Priest in "Stigmata", and even Satan in "End of Days".

2. The tug crew is bringing in a large salvage, when they realize it is sinking behind them. Epps heroically decides to try and save the salvage and repair the hole. How long did she say that it had taken them to "get her off the bottom"?

Answer: 3 months

Epps: "It took us three months to get her off the bottom. I am not gonna lose her now!" Epps freed herself from the line she hung from, and swims down to inspect the "punch". Crewmates Dodge and Munder follow her down, and they successfully repair the hole. Ron Eldard, who plays Dodge, costarred on "ER" as the love interest of Nurse Hathaway (Julianna Margulies).

3. What is the name of the mysterious man who approaches Murphy and his crew in the bar, after they make it back with their salvage?

Answer: Ferriman

Ferriman is not all he seems to be. Desmond Harrington portrays Jack Ferriman. Desmond can also been seen in "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc", "Riding in Cars with Boys", and the mini-series "Taken".

4. What is playing on the tug's television set as they set out to their next salvage, the Antonia Graza?

Answer: A Bruce Lee movie

It is one of Bruce Lee's Kung-Fu movies.

5. How much of Murphy's operation did Epps say she owned, thus explaining to the mystery man why she is even out there?

Answer: one third

Epps: "You mean what's a nice girl like me doing in a dump like this instead of raising a family? Simple. I own a third of Murphy's operation. I'm not that nice, and these monkeys are my family." Then Dodge makes a monkey face, and Munder starts making monkey sounds.

6. Which of the crew members first sees Katie, after boarding the seemingly abandoned Antonia Graza?

Answer: Epps

When Munder falls through a rusted out area of flooring, Epps reaches down to help him back through. As she is pulling the frantic Munder up out of the hole, she sees Katie standing on the stairs in the room below. As far as I can tell, Epps is the only one who sees her. Emily Browning, who plays Katie, has also been in the movie "Darkness Falls".

7. As the tug approaches the huge ship, Antonia Graza, the radar keeps changing. It shows the ship and then the radar shows nothing there at all.

Answer: True

The ship seems to be there, and then the radar shows nothing. Finally, they see the ship just as the tug crashes right into the side of it. Dodge was almost flattened, as he was hanging off of the front of the tug by a rope. He saves himself just in time to avoid death. The tug itself was not damaged by the impact, though they do experience engine failure that Santos must repair.

8. How many years passed between the disappearance of the Antonia Graza and the "present day" of the movie?

Answer: 40

The ocean liner disappears in 1962, after everyone aboard is murdered. We hear Murphy say that it has been 40 years as they are about to board for the first time in "present day". Also, the movie came out in 2002, and so that makes it 40 years.

9. Which of the crew first knows that their mystery man is a traitor?

Answer: Murphy

When Murphy breaks down and finally has a drink with the former captain of the Antonia Graza, the ghost shows him a picture of the sole survivor of a ship they discovered in 1962. Two days before the Antonia Graza disappears they took Ferriman aboard. He was the sole survivor of the Lorelei, and he brought the gold bars on with him.

10. What date did the Antonia Graza disappear?

Answer: May 21

Murphy speaking to the ghost Captain: "The Lorelei."

Ghost: "She was adrift. We rescued her."

Murphy: "I've heard the story of the Lorelei. I didn't know the Graza was involved. The gold was on board the Lorelei?" The ghost nods to Murphy, and he continues: "It says here May 19, 1962. That's 2 days before your ship disappeared."

Thus, the date the Antonia Graza disappeared is May 21, 1962.
