Slumbering Giant: USS Hornet (CV/CVA/CVS-12) is a United States Navy aircraft carrier. The eighth ship to bear the name, she was originally named USS Kearsarge, but renamed in honor of the CV-8, which was lost in October of 1942. The Hornet is also said to be one of the most haunted warships in the American Navy, with numerous reports of supernatural events occurring onboard. The Hornet has been the subject of several nationally aired television paranormal-related programs including MTV’s “Fear”[1] and Beyond Investigation Magazine performed an instrumented investigation[2] of large areas of the ship for Scariest Places On Earth.
