Fridays and Saturdays Every October

The Ghost Ship is held on Friday and Saturday nights throughout October. Thousands visit the Ghost Ship, which has been transformed into a ghoulish and frightening haunted attraction.
Navigating the steep stairways deep into the Ghost Ship is challenging enough--having people jump out of the darkness is definitely a scary and heart-stopping experience!
Due to the COVID-19 virus, the ship will have limited capacity compared to years past and face coverings and temperature checks are required for entry.
