Apotheosis (FULL-ISH with INTRO) (sssprite Mix) [FNF VS Illegal Instruction OST]

In 1954, the U.S. Coast Guard logged a classified incident in the Lake Michigan sector, a few miles off the coast of North Manitou Island. The report, later declassified in fragments, referred to it only as “Operation Wraith Tide.” The official story claimed it was a “meteorological anomaly" but locals in northern Michigan knew better.

Fishermen had been reporting strange occurrences for months, fog banks forming in perfect circles, compasses spinning, radios picking up faint distress calls from ships that no longer existed. And then came the night of October 7th, 1954.

A small passenger vessel called the Harriet Dee vanished mid-transit between Leland and the island. Twenty-two people aboard, no wreckage, no survivors, not even oil slick. The next morning, an uncharted sandbar appeared where the Harriet Dee’s signal last registered. It was roughly half a mile wide, covered in dead gulls, seaweed, and rusted debris. Locals started calling it Dead Island.

For weeks, no one went near it, until a Coast Guard team attempted to land there. The official records say they found no human remains, only “organic residue inconsistent with aquatic decay.” Unofficially, one of the divers Lt. Raymond Pike, told his wife before vanishing a month later, “They weren’t dead. They were waiting.”

By winter, the island was gone. Nothing left but open water. But in 1969, a research crew from the University of Michigan captured sonar readings of what looked like a submerged structure, circular, hollow, with vertical pillars roughly matching the dimensions of a passenger ship’s hull.

For decades, there have been whispered reports from boaters and divers: flashes of light beneath the surface, figures seen standing in the mist, a woman’s voice humming an old sea shanty. One of the earliest radio operators who handled the original distress call claimed to hear a phrase that never appeared in the transcript: “We’ve reached the shore.”

Some folklorists believe Dead Island is connected to a 19th-century Ottawa legend about “the Sleeping Tide,” a place where drowned souls gather until the lake gives them form again.

The song “Dead Island” uses frequencies modeled after sonar pings taken from the 1969 dive recordings. The low-end distortion mimics underwater resonance, if played loud enough, some claim it interferes with radio reception within a mile radius. The final 12 seconds contain a hidden field recording of Lake Michigan waves taken near Leland, if you isolate it, a faint voice can be heard repeating, “We’ve reached the shore.”
