The Tall Ship Elissa, a 99-foot-tall, three-masted sailing ship named for a character in Virgil’s epic poem “The Aeneid,” has sailed the world since 1877 and has been subjected to all sorts of rough situations, including a mutiny. The ship is undoubtedly fertile ground for lost souls. Twenty true believers will have the opportunity to make contact with them at “Séance Aboard the 1877 Tall Ship Elissa,” hosted by Sandra Logan, a Houston medium and psychic. The séance will take place in the belly of the ship. “It should be appropriately scary at night with the water whipping on the sides of the boat, and it rocking back and forth, and it is dark, only lit by candlelight,” Logan said in an email.

Logan considers herself a results-oriented medium. Last year, she conducted a séance at the Michael B. Menard House, the former home of one of Galveston’s founders, and General Sam Houston appeared, she said. “He was sitting on a bed with his boots on,” Logan said. “I felt he was very tall, and he had military men sitting in chairs around the bed, and wars were being planned.”
