Once hailed as the most luxurious ship ever to sail the seas, the RMS Queen Mary now sits permanently moored in Long Beach, California—a glamorous relic… and a ghost ship.
In this episode of Hauntings and Happenings, host Kasey delves into the ship's opulent beginnings, its wartime transformation into the "Grey Ghost," and the haunting legacy of tragedy, trauma, and tales that refuse to rest. From the infamous collision with the HMS Curacoa to the alleged spirits of little Jackie and the shadowed room B340, we explore how history and horror intertwine aboard one of the world’s most haunted vessels.
Is it truly haunted—or are we drawn to its story because, deep down, we’re all haunted by something?
Featuring historical records, firsthand accounts, and psychological insight into our obsession with ghost stories, this episode asks: what echoes louder—the facts of history, or the whispers in the dark?
