The RMS Queen Mary is permanently docked in Long Beach, California, but its most famous ghost stories begin at sea. In nineteen sixty-six, eighteen-year-old crewman John Pedder was killed at Watertight Door 13 in the engine-room area. Decades later, visitors, employees, guides, and paranormal investigators have reported a workman’s figure, footsteps, whistles, and metallic sounds near the same passageways. Other parts of the ship developed their own legends: the drained first-class swimming pool, the child voice called Jackie, Room B340, the Queen’s Salon, and the woman in white. This episode follows the ship from luxury liner to wartime troop transport, from the HMS Curacoa collision to its final berth in Long Beach, and from early employee stories to commercial ghost tours and televised investigations. The evidence includes documented deaths, archival claims, witness reports, paranormal recordings, environmental conditions, and the ship’s own powerful structure of metal, echoes, shafts, corridors, and memory. The central question remains open: are the Queen Mary’s hauntings the product of tragedy, suggestion, acoustics, tourism, and retelling, or does something unexplained still move through the ship after the engines have gone silent?
