Shipwreck Update pt. 2
Due to unfortunate circumstances beyond our control Shipwreck at the Queen Mary has been forced to relocate. The Gridlock Group has slid in and taken our 14 years of hard work, reputation and event that we created with just 1 maze back in 1995, to the massive event it has become today. This news is just as upsetting to us as it is to you as we have strived to provide a great work environment, unparalleled customer satisfaction and the most Terrifying Place on Earth for millions of guests over the past 14 years. It was never our intention to leave hundreds of our loyal employees and our tens of thousands of guests who have been with us from the start unaware and confused about future of Shipwreck. However, due to the unfairly terminated contract by Save the Queen, we are no longer affiliated with the Queen Mary and must move forward. Rest assured that Shipwreck Productions will prevail and we look forward to reuniting with our loyal monsters and guest at our new location to be announced 09-09-09!
Shipwreck Productions would like to thank all who contributed to such an amazing, fun, crazy and successful event! The last 14 years of Shipwreck at the Queen Mary have been unbelievable and we feel very grateful to have had the chance to scare and work with you all!
Once again, thanks for all your support!!
14 years? I remember when the event was awesome and the scariest around. How could they tottally ruin an event like they did?? Well good news it looks like the new promoters/producers have 5 new mazes and it really can't get any worse than last year!!
One Haunted Location...5 Terrifying Mazes
Vampire Village: This haunted village dates back long ago, with twists and turns and fog below. Located to the north of the Shipwrecked Queen, some villagers have been known to scream. Alas, have no fear, for there are friendly Transylvanians near.
The Graveyard: The Un-dead have awoke from a long blissful sleep, to chase those who's footsteps will not give them peace. Tread lightly if you dare, and are so bold, for from out of the fog may pop-out something cold!
Isolation ward There is no escaping this straight jacket of a maze, patients may enter and exit in a haze. Handle them with care with good bedside manner, or be forced to answer to the dreaded Nurse Slasher!
Blackbeard's Revenge (Pirate Maze): Angered Pirate Spirits haunt the sea, from years of trying to overthrow the Queen Mary. This maze will delight the scurviest of mates, with a dozen or so Pirates that will give chase. AAAAAARRRRGGG!
Paranoia's House of Horror: Take a trip down memory lane, where Classic Haunted Characters are ready to bring the pain! Thru the dark depths of the ships bowels you will be, restrooms are nearby if you need to pee. So run, hide, scream all you want, nothing will stop these Masters of Haunt!
