Dark Harbor Oct. (check their website for dates and prices)
Monsters and circus freaks at the Queen Mary in Long Beach. A circus-themed maze and a “Ferrisqueal” (Ferris wheel) and I think I read somewhere that it goes a bit faster than usual, but not sure if true. Sounds a bit skurrrrry! if you ask me. This year they will also have scare fest and it includes food, drink and entertainment. 7 pm–midnight. $20–$109. Also, for additional fee you can rent a room and stay there for a haunted night or two. 1126 Queens Hwy., Long Beach, 877.342.0742.
