In this chilling episode of Anthology of Horror, we set sail into the haunted history of the RMS Queen Mary, the legendary ocean liner that has spent decades as both a beacon of luxury and a hotspot for paranormal activity. Produced by Mickie Eberz, this episode dives deep into the ship’s post-World War II legacy, her decline as air travel took over, and her transformation into a floating hotel and museum in Long Beach, California. But while the Queen Mary may no longer roam the seas, something else still lingers aboard.
From the infamous Stateroom B340, where guests have reported terrifying encounters, to the eerie first-class swimming pool, where the ghost of a little girl named Jackie is said to play, we explore the most notorious hauntings tied to this spectral ship. Listeners will hear the tragic tale of John Pedder, the young crewman crushed in the engine room, and the disturbing echoes of the HMS Curacoa disaster, where over 300 men perished beneath the Queen Mary’s bow. We’ll also uncover the mysterious Lady in White, the chilling growls of the entity known as Grumpy, and the unsettling sounds of phantom knocks and voices in the ship’s cavernous corridors.
Is the Queen Mary a floating time capsule of spirits trapped between worlds? Or is her haunted reputation merely the stuff of legend? Join us as we unravel the truth behind one of the world’s most infamous ghost ships.
Closing out the episode, enjoy "Message in a Bottle"—a haunting cover by Machine Head, the perfect soundtrack for a journey into maritime mystery and the echoes of the past.
