A Real Boo-ze Cruise: The Queen Mary

A Real Boo-ze Cruise: The Queen Mary

Emily and Caroline discuss the Queen Mary’s history: built in the 1930s as a luxury transatlantic liner, later refitted in WWII as the troopship “Great Ghost,” and involved in a 1942 collision with HMS Curacoa that killed hundreds. After postwar service declined with the rise of air travel, Long Beach bought and converted the ship into a hotel and tourist attraction. They then cover its reputation as one of the world’s most haunted sites, highlighting reports of the “lady in white,” the spirit of crewman John Pedder killed by Watertight Door 13, the notoriously active Room B340, eerie sounds linked to the collision area, and paranormal claims around the drained first-class pool and alleged vortex zones, alongside several firsthand online accounts.
