Is the Queen Mary Really Haunted?
Hi Everyone,
I received this press release from the Queen Mary and thought it would be of interest. If you have missed any of my news' postings, they are available on my web site. Best regards, Ray LIGHTHOUSE TRAVEL 800-719-9917 or 805-566-3905 http://www.lighthousetravel.com Is the Queen Mary Really Haunted? You Decide. Experience the All New Ghost Encounters Tour With Peter James LONG BEACH, Calif., March 2 From its beautiful Art Deco salons to the depths of its darkest corridors, the Queen Mary has been a constant source for stories, articles and documentaries about supernatural sightings and other unexplained activity aboard the historic ship. Testimonials from passengers and crewmembers continue to be reported and documented, all of them wanting answers to what they've experienced. Do ghosts really exist aboard the Queen Mary? To help shed some light on this topic, the Queen Mary has introduced a new tour that is being offered daily aboard the haunted ocean liner. The Ghost Encounters Tour with Peter James is now offered in addition to the popular Ghosts & Legends of the Queen Mary, a daily, special effects show. The cost of the new tour is $8 for adults, $5 children (5-11) and is available with the purchase of a General Admission or First Class Passage combination ticket. The hour-long walking tour will take guests to various haunted areas of the ship including the Royal Theater, Propeller Box, Shaft Alley, Engine Room, Boiler Room, First-Class Pool, and hotel decks. Four locations will feature video monitors with recorded dialogue by renowned paranormal researcher Peter James, who has been seen on the Discovery and Sightings television shows. A Tour Guide will provide additional knowledge of the reported hauntings. The Tour will be offered at various times during attraction hours, 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Additional weekend, evening hours will be added at a later date. The existing Ghosts & Legends of the Queen Mary show will continue with its daily schedule. Ghosts & Legends is a special effects, walk-through show created aboard the ship that dramatizes actual paranormal and historic events that have been reported over the past 65 years. The new Ghost Encounters Tour will not make use of special effects but rather focus on actual, documented 'hot spots' around the ship. Some subject matter covered in the tour may be unsuitable for young children. Peter James has performed significant amounts of investigative research on the Queen Mary, and his findings have captured various forms of paranormal activity including audible sounds, smells, distinct temperature changes and visual activity. James hosts a dinner and ghost tour aboard the Queen Mary on select Friday nights. His abilities have also been witnessed on dozens of televised news broadcasts, as well as numerous radio interviews, magazine articles and newspaper coverage. For more information about the Queen Mary attractions, hotel, and restaurants, the public may call (562) 435-3511 or visit the Queen Mary on line at www.queenmary.com. The Queen Mary is located at 1126 Queens Highway at the south end of the 710 Freeway, on the water in Long Beach, California. |

Is the Queen Mary Really Haunted?
As I have posted before I can attest to her being a haunted ship. In
August 1963 I sailed on her Southampton to New York. I was situated in third class and as I walked thru the corridor I heard my name being called. My real given name. I looked around but no one was there. During WW11 a GI I was seeing was on the crossing to France. A few years ago we visited her.in Long Beach.. Some places had been blocked off and It was hard to envision where I had been located. But again as I walked thru her there was one spot that changed temperature - becoming warm - and then returning to what I presumed to be the norm. SUNNY.......So, I am not the only one that has experienced this |

We stayed on her overnight before taking our Star Princess cruise over a year ago~we specifically booked the old cabin (a two bedroom one) instead of the new renovated ones and I had hoped after hearing the ghost stories and legends that we would have a personal experience of our own~but no such luck! --Jean ;-) |

What people won't do to drum up their business. ....Reminds me of the
loch ness monster BS. ... I've stayed on the QM a couple of times. ...Even tried to sneak into the 1st. class pool area via a sideways (out of bounds) route, but couldn't get to it. ...AAR, I saw nothing creeping through the old hallways and dining rooms. ...And nothing showed up on my video tape, either. ....Perhaps the ghost was away on vacation during my stay. ...Probably out on a cruise somewhere. ...Jon |
