Book[edit]

This book contains more information about the ship, and 'alledged' paranormal activites! Good read too, especially with the annotations of unknown origin.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.193.87.5 (talk • contribs) 09:44, 23 July 2009

Debunked hoax[edit]

Estelle Hargraves at skittish library has debunked this 'mystery': http://skittishlibrary.co.uk/the-myth-of-the-ourang-medan-ghost-ship-1940/ . Reddit discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnsolvedMysteries/comments/3z5713/pretty_sure_ive_solved_the_mystery_of_the_ourang/?st=iqnpsxc6&sh=fb6e145e

Silvio Scherli has likely fabricated the February 1948 story in The Locomotive, or De locomotief: Samarangsch handels- en advertentie-blad, loosely based on true (and far less mysterious) events in November 1940.

Shouldn't someone put the above into the article? Wikipedia is not about prolonging hoaxes? Sjoerd22 (talk) 15:51, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
