She is a haunted ship,
The Rebecca, that is!
Let me tell you of her encounter with the greatest cambion,
You may know him, Hellboy; our predetermined champion.
It all started when he was heading out to sea,
Through a ship graveyard of vessels withering.
The apparitional crew of the Rebecca saw him rowing in his boat,
And captured Hellboy, tying him to the mast and placing chains around his throat.
The goal was to sell this reddish freak to the aweing circus,
Though not all the seamen appreciated this.
Before long all hell broke lose with sea creatures entering the ship,
And a giant monster out of the depths creating turmoil and an all out crazy fit.
The outcome was Rebecca's shipwreck on the rocky shoals,
With a crew turned back to ghosts and Hellboy paddling into the great unknown.
