A Haunting Evening Onboard the RMS Queen Mary

by Mary Jo Manzanares on October 23rd, 2007

Queen Mary in Long Beach The Queen Mary has long been thought to be haunted, and it’s sailing history is rich in unexplained events and activities.  The ship is now permanently docked in Long Beach, California, as is operated as a hotel and museum. 

Employees and guests have frequently reported paranormal activity aboard the ship, and psychics have concurred that something is going on.  Halloween visitors will have an opportunity to experience some of these “happenings” with “Shipwreck 2007″ — the Queen Mary’s 13th annual Terrorfest.

The past popularity of this event has resulted in limited admission on each night, so if you want to catch a glimpse of a shipboard ghost, you’ll need buy tickets right away.  Tickets are available online.  Don’t wait — this event will sell out!

A variety of hotel/event packages are available starting at $153.
