The crew found the Aztec gold, which they quickly frittered away on food, drink and prostitutes. However, unaware the treasure was cursed, anyone who stole the coins turned into undead beings, unable to feel pleasure but suffering pain. Moonlight revealed the cursed pirate's true form—hideous skeletons with tattered flesh clinging to bones. Even the Pearl was affected as the ship became constantly shrouded in an eerie mist, although the ship itself was not cursed, this was merely the effect of the curse upon the ship's crew. After the curse is lifted, the mist disappeared and it is not seen neither at the end of The Curse of the Black Pearl nor in Dead Man's Chest. more
Future story quests featuring the Pearl are unknown - but video samples from piratesonline.com show the Pearl in battle against EITC and skeleton warships, so the adventure is likely far from over for this ship.
Wallilabou Anchorage was the principle Caribbean location for Disneys 2003 hit movie ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’. This world premiere movie is inspired by, and takes its theme from, the popular Walt Disney theme park ride of the same name.

We have a museum and recently finished our pirate /picture museum which is made inside the main Pirates of the Caribbean Disney set building. It is full photos of the building of the set and the stars and much much more.
Peter Easton is a well-known pirate who started as a privateer in Queen Elizabeth I’s navy. In 1602, he was sent to Newfoundland to protect people from the Spanish. But when James I took the throne a short time later, Easton’s services were no longer needed. Easton decided to continue attacking ships just as he had been doing before — except now, since he wasn’t acting under orders from the throne, he was officially a pirate. He attacked the Spanish and English and eventually had 10 ships and over 1,500 men of his own. Easton quickly grew a reputation for being a very successful pirate. Years later, he received and accepted an English pardon. He married, settled down, and became the Marquis of Savoy.
Barataria Bay, a bay on the Gulf of Mexico in Louisiana, is actually named after its pirate history. The name is based on the creole word, “Barateur,” which means “cheap” and once referred to smuggled goods sold by pirates. In the early 1800s, a pirate named Jean Lafitte and his band of privateers used the bay as their base. The pirates were commonly known as the Baratarians. Today, you can visit a historical preserve named after Lafitte. [links]

Cartagena, Colombia was founded along the Caribbean coast in 1533 and quickly became the passageway to South America for ships coming from the north. Treasure was often stored in Cartagena before making its way back to Spain, making the city a huge temptation for pirates on the Caribbean Sea. Cartagena fended off five separate pirate sieges in the 1500s. One was led by Sir Francis Drake, who got away with 10 million pesos. Another attack occurred in 1741 when Edward Vernon set 186 ships on the city.
