"Titanic Exhibits"

In 1912, in just 2 hours, 40 minute for the huge ship Titanic to sink into the North Atlantic. The ship was built and billed to be “unsinkable” but the unthinkable happened when it hit an iceberg and more than 1,500 passengers perished in the maritime tragedy that still fascinates after 97 years.

Noveal Hicks who has worked as the titanic exhibits feels someone is with him or watching him. "His spirit still feels guilty. He wants to keep everyone in this room safe," said Noveal.

He feels that the guiltiness is in the ghost of Fredrick Fleet, who was the lookout who missed the giant iceberg that took down the unsinkable ship, but somehow he survived. But Fredrick spent the rest of his life feeling guilty about it. Finally in 1965 at the age of 78, Fredrick took his own life.

Noveal has worked at the Titanic exhibit for years and says visitors and employees tell him they've felt someone touching them on the shoulder here on the promenade deck and heard alarms go off for no reason.

Noveal himself swears Fredrick would even swing this door open when no one else was around. "It used to scare the heck out of me. So I didn't know what to do. I started speaking to him. I said good morning Fredrick it wasn't your fault, go in peace. And after three months that door wouldn't open anymore," said Noveal.
