170 years ago, a ghost ship docked in liverpool (or someplace) it’s only cargo a horde of plague-infested cannibal rats. AND A COFFIN. – 05:05 PM GMT
The ship, not called the Lyubov Orlova, had been also been providing a cargo shipment for an Eastern European nobleman. – 05:06 PM GMT
His name? COUNT ORLOFF. The cargo? HIS COFFIN. The silent film Nosferatu, of course, tells his tale. – 05:07 PM GMT
Orlova, Orloff, ghost ship, the UK, cannibal rats, a vampire: we’ve all heard this before. And it’s a humdinger. – 05:08 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt correction appreciated! not sure the film explicitly says. Couldn’t find screenies of the rats swarming the coffin. 🙁 – 05:10 PM GMT
interesting, apparently the character name in the film is actually Orlok, although it is commonly recalled as Orloff. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count_Orl… – 05:15 PM GMT
