The USS Lexington in Corpus Christi, TX, is described as haunted due to numerous alleged reports of paranormal activity from visitors and staff, including flickering lights, slamming doors, disembodied sounds like talking and chains dragging, and apparitions such as a young sailor who has been seen in the engine room. These experiences contribute to the ship's nickname, "The Blue Ghost," which was earned during World War II because the Japanese incorrectly believed they had sunk it multiple times, making it appear to vanish and reappear. Visitors and staff report hearing unexplained sounds, such as doors slamming, chains dragging, whispers, and disembodied voices. Flickering lights and objects, like pen caps, have been reported to move on their own. Some claim to have seen apparitions of former crew members, particularly a young sailor in the engine room known to have blue eyes and a white hat. People have also reported feeling a sudden presence or cold spots, especially in the ship's dark corridors and narrow passageways.
