2* At the beginning when the dancers died from the wire, everything went quiet. Not just the shocked dancers, but the background as well. The music and the singing completely stopped. No screaming. None of the crew went to help. Until we saw the reveal [[spoiler: that most of the crew, including Francesca, was part of the murder. So of course they wouldn't be affected by seeing such a horrific sight.]]

5* Katie's body is found [[spoiler:hanged]] in her quarters. If her killers had time to [[spoiler:drag her back to her quarters and string her up,]] what else did they have time to do? Why else would they go to the trouble of [[spoiler:taking her all the way back to her room]] if they were openly [[spoiler:slitting everyone else's throats in the middle of the hallway]]? Chances are, [[spoiler:being hanged was just the end of [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil what they did to her]]...]]
6** The first draft of the [[http://www.dailyscript.com/scripts/ghost_ship.html original script]] confirms this fridge horror. [[spoiler:To make it worse, everything happened [[ForcedToWatch in front of her father]]]].
7* It's implied that the ''Graza'' is merely the latest ship [[spoiler:Ferriman]] used in his plot to [[spoiler:corrupt and salvage souls]]. If that's true, imagine how many other souls on other ships [[spoiler:he damned to Hell]]?
8** Considering that he first made his DealWithTheDevil during the sinking of an old-timey wooden sailing ship...
9* In the last scene, [[spoiler:the gold is being loaded onto a new cruise ship by some of Epps' crewmates... specifically, the ones that were "marked" for their sins; Santos, Greer, and Dodge]]. This is ''after'' [[spoiler:the Graza was destroyed, and all of the other ghosts were set free. The marked ghosts aren't just trapped on whatever ship they died on, they're under Ferriman's control ''forever'']].
