The ground is uneven, so we recommend comfortable shoes. Typically the morning is chilly while the afternoon is sunny and warm, so a sweater or light coat is recommended. Dress Rehearsals A Little Background on the Historical Cemetery Tour Beginning in 1995, the HSLB has conducted an annual living history tour at the city's two oldest cemeteries. Located on Willow Street between Orange and California and adjacent to one another, Long Beach Municipal Cemetery and Sunnyside Cemetery are “home” to more than 20,000 past residents of the area. The tour takes place the Saturday on or before Halloween and features graveside presentations by professional and volunteer actors who relate the life and demise of the person lying in rest. Each year's program features a number of stories – some are individuals who helped shape the city's political past, others are ordinary people whose tales remind us that rich or poor, famed or nearly forgotten, everyone has a story to tell. Period costumes worn by all the performers further heighten the experience with an aura of authenticity. Many guests get so involved in the presentation that questions like “What was it like to live here in 1920?” are often asked of the performers. The tour is appropriate for families and all ages. There is nothing scary about the vignettes or the location. Japanese ladyTickets are sold online and at the gate from 8:30 a.m. until noon just inside the main gateway on Willow Street or at the Orange Avenue entrance. The tour takes approximately two hours to complete, and the last presentations are between 2:00 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. Awards Hollywood Gothique‘s 2014 Halloween Haunt Award Nominees: ⌖ Best Play in a Non-Theatrical Setting: HSLB's 19th Annual Historical Cemetery Tour ⌖ Best Short Play or Vignette: Fighting Injustice with Tacos from HSLB's Historical Cemetery Tour ⌖ Best Non-Haunt Halloween Event: HSLB's 19th Annual Historical Cemetery Tour

LOS ANGELES: Ghoula Ghost Tour July 27, 2014
ghoula.blogspot.com/
Ghost Tour
This specialty tour is part of a series of tours GHOULA is
conducting this year and only this year. Rather than tours
built around a general geographical location (i.e. The Ghosts of
Hollywood), we take a theme and run with it, telling only ghost
lore that fits the theme. This gives us an opportunity to visit
locations or tell stories that are not typically heard. These
are one-off tours that will not be repeated. We are only doing
these "bus tours" this year. Past tours have included... The
Haunted Houdini Tour, The Ghost-buster Ghost-Bus-Tour, The Many
Ghosts of Valentinio, and The 13 Richest Ghosts of Los Angeles,
and now this tour...
DATE: Sunday, July 27, 2014
TIME: 12:30pm and 3:30pm
(tours run 1 1/2 to 2 hours each)
PRICE: $35.00

LONG BEACH: The Queen Mary Open Daily
Queen Mary
Sure, they milk the spook factor for all it's worth every
Halloween, but the Queen Mary in Long Beach is certifiably
haunted according to the countless visitors who claim to hear
voices and rattling chains during tours and overnight stays. The
Queen Mary certainly has a past that's ripe for modern-day
hauntings. She started life as a luxury liner, setting forth on
her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, in 1937, and
hosting everyone from Bob Hope to Winston Churchill. But when
WWII began, the Queen Mary was drafted into service as a ferry
ship, carrying thousands of troops into battle areas. The fancy
lady was stripped of her chic facade, painted a camo grey and
dubbed the Grey Ghost.” After years of service in war, and at
her majesty's whim, the Queen Mary was eventually sold to a tour
operator and sent to retirement in Long Beach, where she's been
a floating hotel and event spot since 1967. According to the
late psychic and ghost hunter, Peter James, who led tours around
the Queen Mary, almost all areas of the ship including the
second class pool deck and engine room 13 are known to be
haunted.

BARSTOW: Harvey House & Rail Station
hauntedbarstow.com
The Casa Del Desierto, also known as the Barstow Harvey House
and Rail Station, is occasionally one of our touring locations.
After fires in the 1800's the new Barstow Rail Station and
Harvey House opened in 1911. Known as the Jewel of the Desert”,
it served proudly through decades as a place of rest,
relaxation, and wonderful food for the weary rail traveler and
those on Route 66. For both civilian and military, the service
was impeccable and for a reasonable price. The spirits still
linger on in and about this historical gem. We will explore its
"unknown" in a search for spirits of the past to help us
understand and preserve. I hope you join us on one of the
Haunted Barstow Harvey House Ghost Tours and keep with you the
priceless memories of this powerful experience.
From the Founder of the retired Calico Ghost Walk at historic
Calico Ghost Town, Bill Cook is back and brings you Haunted
Barstow, a haunted tour that is incomparable to any other ghost
tour.
