The Captain of the "Pole-Star" is a short story written by Arthur Conan Doyle first published in the Temple Bar magazine in January 1883.

Subtitled in collected volumes: Being an extract from the singular journal of John McAlister Ray, student of medicine.

For reasons that are unclear, Nicholas Craigie, Captain of the Pole-Star, decides to anchor in the middle of the Arctic Ocean, contrary to the opinion of his crew. Indeed, the boat could be trapped in the ice at any moment, resulting in a sudden death for everyone. Days pass... One morning Mr. Manson, the second mate, reports he saw a ghost at night. His story is not taken seriously, and is put down to idleness.
