SHIP CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS

USS Lexington

Corpus Christi, Texas

A World War II aircraft carrier museum nicknamed for its apparent reluctance to be sunk — and its resident ghosts.

History

The carrier served through fierce Pacific fighting and a long postwar career before becoming a museum. Visitors and staff report a helpful sailor who gives tours and vanishes, sounds in the engine spaces, and movement in the sick bay. It is a frequent stop for paranormal groups.

Reported phenomena

A guiding sailor who disappears, engine-room sounds, and activity in sick bay.
