Description

On May 27th, 1936 the RMS Queen Mary set sail on her maiden voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. This would be the first of over 1,000 trips for the British Ocean Liner, which had accommodations fit for elite class passengers. The Queen Mary would become known as the “Stateliest Ship Afloat.” The ship included two pools, nurseries, entertainment venues and even a small hospital, and when it wasn’t transporting passengers across the Atlantic, it was transformed into a wartime vessel to aid in transporting soldiers all around the world during WW2. The ship traveled over 600,000 miles in it’s career and carried an estimated 2.2 million passengers during peacetime as well as more than 800,000 military personnel during the war. The vast history and reports of at least 47 deaths on the ship, has given way for reports of up to 600 spirits haunting the Queen Mary to this day.
