  Welcome aboard to our series Paranormal Pathways, where the ordinary is left behind, and the supernatural takes the helm. Its been a while since I last posted about paranormal things but don’t worry folks you're going to get regular weakly posts, will try my best to keep up, if something doesn’t comes up like last time( lol) , anyway without any delay lets jump in to it.
 In our last post, we ventured into the chilling halls of Myrtles Plantation, uncovering a history of tragic deaths and restless spirits. But today, we leave the haunted grounds behind and set sail on the high seas of mystery.
 Docked in Long Beach, California, the RMS Queen Mary is a retired ocean liner that once carried luxury passengers across the Atlantic. But since its retirement, the Queen Mary has gained fame for something far darker than its glamorous past. Known as one of the most haunted ships in the world, the Queen Mary holds within its hull countless stories of tragedy, war, and unexplained phenomena.
 Are you ready to step aboard and discover what makes the Queen Mary more than just a maritime marvel? Hold your breath as we descend into the haunted depths of this legendary liner.
  A Titanic Rival Turned Floating Haunt
Launched in 1936, the Queen Mary was celebrated as a masterpiece of engineering and luxury. Larger and faster than the Titanic, the ship ferried wealthy passengers, celebrities, and even royalty across the Atlantic. However, when World War II erupted, the Queen Mary was repurposed as a troopship, earning the nickname “The Grey Ghost.”During this period, the ship’s glamorous decks became the setting for war-related tragedies. Overcrowding, fatal accidents, and even a devastating collision with the HMS Curacoa resulted in the deaths of hundreds. These tragic events are believed to have left behind an imprint on the Queen Mary, turning her into a hotspot for paranormal activity. 

The Haunted Pool Room
One of the most notorious locations aboard the Queen Mary is the First-Class Swimming Pool, which has been closed for decades. Despite its disuse, the pool area remains a hive of ghostly activity. Visitors often report hearing the sounds of splashing water, though the pool has been dry for years. Others have spotted wet footprints leading away from the pool, only to vanish without a trace.The most famous apparition in the pool area is that of a young girl named Jackie, who is believed to have drowned in the pool during the ship’s heyday. Jackie is often seen playing around the pool deck, singing, or calling out to visitors. Paranormal investigators have captured EVPs of her giggling and responding to questions, adding to the spine-chilling mystery of her lingering presence.

 The Engine Room and Door 13
Deep within the ship lies the Engine Room, another epicenter of paranormal encounters. Known for its oppressive atmosphere and sudden temperature drops, the Engine Room is infamous for the tragic accident involving Door 13. During the ship’s service in 1966, a young crewman was crushed to death by the heavy door during a routine drill. His spirit is said to haunt the area, with visitors reporting the sight of a shadowy figure wearing a blue boiler suit lurking near the door.Some have even felt a cold touch on their shoulders or heard the sound of metal grinding, as if the door is still being forced shut by an unseen force. 

Cabin B340: Too Haunted for Guests
Perhaps the most terrifying part of the Queen Mary is Cabin B340, so haunted that it was closed to the public for years. Guests who stayed in the cabin reported horrifying experiences, including bed sheets being yanked off while they slept, faucets turning on and off by themselves, and whispers in the darkness.The Queen Mary reopened the cabin in 2018 as part of its haunted attractions, fully embracing its eerie reputation. Guests who are brave enough to book a stay are provided with ghost-hunting equipment to document their own experiences. But beware—many claim that the spirits in B340 are not friendly and have been known to lash out at those who disturb them.
