THE DATE WAS APRIL 14, 1912, a sinister day in maritime history, but of course the man in suite 63–65, shelter deck C, did not yet know it.
On April 14, 1912, a seemingly ordinary day, history was about to take a tragic turn. In suite 63-65 on shelter deck C of the Titanic, an occupant was unaware of the impending disaster that would soon unfold. This date marks one of the most significant maritime tragedies, forever altering perceptions of safety at sea.

The story intertwines elements of murder, magic, and the madness surrounding the 1893 World's Fair, illustrating a darker side to history during a time of great change in America.
