He didn't have a companion on the first day .But the night when he came back, he saw another bag laied on the opposite side.The next day when he woke up, he found the window was wide open and he noticed that when he went to bed last night, the room was damp. The morning, he went to meet the doctor and told him about the room. And Brisbane got a frightening news! The men who slept in room 105 actually have gone into the sea. Then, the captain wanted to see him because his companion disappeared and they thought he may have fallen into the sea.Then Brisbane was told not to tell anyone about it.But Brisbane wanted to stay in his room for one more night. After playing cards, he went back to his room and locked the door, but suddenly he nocticed that the window was opened again. Then he went out to find Robert about the window, but Robert told him that the window opened itself and it would open again.

Brisbane wanted to find out about the mystery of the room and he answered whether the doctor would stay with him but he didn't want to, so the captain stayed with him to found out if there was anyone who stayed on the ship and scaried the passengers to have free trip. That night they stayed in the room when suddenly the light went off and they found something which was ghosty, terrible beyond words, slippery and wet. When he caught it, he broke his arm and the ghost went away. This is the end of the story and Brisbane was wondering about the ghost he had seen.

The scene we like most is when Brisbane saw the ghost. It is very exciting and it attracted us a lot.
