A quick google shows that it is basically a made up story for a TV "reality" series built off of giant leaps of faith and gullible people.

But, mermaids are real. I saw that on a TV show once.
There were books on Oak Island when I was a kid in the 1970's. They were matched up with stories of the Mary Celeste, etc.
