One night, Castle and his first mate, Brett Spooner, discover an antique ship's bag filled with treasure, not knowing the salvage came from a ship that sank over a hundred years before. As it happens, there is a terrible secret behind the ship's disastrous, and now that Castle and Spooner have unwittingly awaken the watery grave, the souls of the ship's crew and passengers have come back to claim revenge in the form of a thick and impenetrable fog.
