The Electric Bath is located in a corridor leading alongside the Cooling Room of the Turkish Bath complex. A technological marvel of the time, it worked by surrounding the person's body with intensely hot steam which was supposed to reinvigorate and revitalise them.

After having fenced with Willi Haderlitz, he will give Carlson his ring. Taking the ring to Trask for a reading will lead to him having a vision that shows Haderlitz getting electrocuted in the Electric Bath.

After Penny informs Carlson that Haderlitz is indeed dead, she sends him to investigate the situation. Smethells and Third Officer Morrow will be standing guard at the entrance to the Turkish Bath, and explain what happened. They mention Dr. O'Loughlin will come to move his body as to not disturb other passengers, though he will remain in the bath after.

At Willi's body will be a clue on a scrap of paper, And many Knots unravel'd by the Road... Taking the clue to Trask for a reading will reveal it's a passage from the Rubaiyat. This will eventually lead Carlson to the notebook.

Though officially ruled an accident due to a malfunction, several passengers and crew will be suspicious of the circumstances surrounding Haderlitz's death. Reverend Troutt mentions that the Electric Baths have never malfunctioned before.

Once the ship is sinking, the Electric Bath will be inaccessible. The area has flooded, and a seaman mentions the water's on E Deck as Carlson tries to descend the Grand Staircase down to the Reception.
