Employee reveals “creepy” cruise ship facts

<p dir="ltr">A former cruise ship employee has opened up about some secrets that people might not know about cruise ships. </p> <p dir="ltr">Lauren worked on cruise ships for two years and shared a <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@laurentalkssmack/video/7104262853795843371?is_copy_url=1&amp;is_from_webapp=v1&amp;q=laurentalkssmack&amp;t=1657168956193" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TikTok</a> about the “creepy” rooms onboard. </p> <p dir="ltr">“There’s some crazy stuff about cruise ships you might not know as a guest,” she said. </p> <p dir="ltr">“I used to work on a cruise ship and I find it so interesting... like all these little things that are kind of creepy. There’s a morgue on board and there’s a jail on board.”</p> <p dir="ltr">She explained that anything could happen on board cruise ships and it was important to be ready. </p> <p dir="ltr">If someone dies, the person is placed in the morgue, and if a traveller breaks the law or causes any trouble they are taken to the jail on board the ship. </p> <p dir="ltr">Lauren went on to explain that there’s no “deck 13” onboard cruise ships either due to superstitious reasons surrounding the number. </p> <p dir="ltr">“It’s a superstitious thing. Sorry, that’s weird. We’re on a cruise ship and you’re making me feel like superstition comes into play.”</p> <p dir="ltr">The now viral video has been viewed more than 850,000 times with many saying they didn’t know about these tiny details. </p> <p dir="ltr">“I don’t know if it’s just me, I thought if someone died on board they would throw them off,” someone said. </p> <p dir="ltr">“Death is everywhere and inevitable. It’s better to have a place to process grandma Ruth who had a heart attack at sea rather than having to go to land,” another said. </p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Images: TikTok</em></p>
