The Ghost Islands is a radio drama, produced by the ZBS Foundation [1]. It is the eighteenth of the Jack Flanders adventure series and the second of the The Fantastic Voyages of Captain Jack Flanders sub-series. It combines elements of Old-time radio with psychic phenomena, supernatural beings and energies.
Plot
While relaxing at the Pelican's Pouch in San Miguel, rumours reach Jack and Mojo of the mysterious Ghost Islands which appear and disappear at certain times of the year. Many can see the islands but most just don't. Claudine knows more but is being particularly vague and distant, she does however decide that they could use another crew-member and to Jack's chagrin, it's Dominique. Pretty soon, there are 'fuzzy' cocoon shapes moving around, shapes whose home can only be mysterious The Ghost Islands.
Notes & Themes
Continues the ecological theme that tourists coming to visit places of beauty or magic, by their very presence, help to destroy such places. Also there are a number of Loa references.
Quotes

Mojo: "Bunny doesn't look happy."
