SCARY

Duluth Haunted Ship

Visitors navigate the length of the 610-foot freighter to solve the mystery of the Captain's Curse. The haunt begins outside with giant sea-life tendrils climbing the ship and continues through interior nooks and crannies filled with crew members morphing into cryptids. On site, guests can also enjoy bonfires, strewn lights, and food and drinks available for purchase.
