Ghouls, killers and spirits are haunting the Queen Mary en masse once again with the return of Dark Harbor to the shores of Long Beach.
The horrifying festival features five mazes — Big Top Terror, Lullaby, Infirmary, Feast, and Breakout and On the Run — live entertainment, carnival rides, axe throwing, shows, shopping and all the food and booze guests need to quell their fears — including numerous speakeasies.
The popular Halloween event ran for nearly a decade before it was canceled in 2020 amid the pandemic and financial troubles of the historic ocean liner's previous operators.
The frightful festivities kicked off Sept. 20 and run through Nov. 2. For more information, click here.
