God I love the Terror with all my heart and soul. Thank you, 19th century brits for going missing for our pleasure.

It’s a late 80s goth classic, I hope you enjoy and have a good trip!

Oh! And literally anything by the B52’s!!

Being the team sent after the disappeared Franklin Expedition, jokes of the ships falling into the Symmes Hole began to circulate—

He has, it’s insane! And I think his favorite is The Saga Begins, a good ol’ Star Wars parody👏🏻
