The only exit from this Halloween scarefest is a long swim back to shore in shark infested waters.
CreepyLA coverage coming soon.
Press release:
TERROR SETS SAIL – From The Creators of “Los Angeles Haunted Hayride”
The Vicious History
In the early 1930’s, the state of California became responsible for the residents of Psych Ward 7. These were the most dangerous inmates in the country.These individuals were deemed so dangerous, in fact, that no walls on land were considered adequate to contain them to keep the society safe. It was decided that they were to be housed on a ship anchored over 100 miles off shore that was to become the country’s first floating asylum.The Coast Guard was given jurisdiction of the floating ward monitoring it regularly and keeping in close communication with the staff on board.
One fall night in 1939 (without so much as a cloud in the sky or a ripple in the water), the ship disappeared off the Coast Guard’s radar and has never been found…until now.
Welcome to Ghost Ship.
About GHOST SHIP
GHOST SHIP is the first haunted attraction in the country that actually sets sail into the dark, open ocean…at night. The Attraction is comprised of three floors of highly interactive content. The gut of the ship will bring the poor souls through the abandoned hallways of what once was the treatment deck for those in need of Electro Shock Therapy, Hydrotherapy, and Sleep Disorder Rehabilitation as well as the old examination rooms and even morgue. The middle floor will appear to provide a moment of calm where patrons can grab a cocktail and take in the old ballroom vibe of the 1930’s. However, appearances can be incredibly deceiving. Lastly, the top deck will bring gluttons for punishment through an interactive execution experience that just may make them wonder “who” is actually getting executed. This will be an experience you will not want to miss if you are someone with a high tolerance for fear. And, we must warn you that once you have stepped onto GHOST SHIP, you are fair game and there is no spot on the ship that is off limits! Welcome Aboard!
