About this episode

When the passenger liner the SS Princess Sophia ran aground on a reef off the coast of Alaska in 1918, her many passengers survived the collision. Despite this, they would never be rescued, despite multiple attempts over the days that followed... Fascinating Horror covers the true stories behind some of history's greatest disasters.
