The Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2) will host another Halloween Spooktacular on board the iconic legend of the seas – this year with the addition of a first-of-its-kind ‘Project Rising Star – Below the Decks Haunted Tour’.
The QE2 Halloween Brunch
Brunch goers can eat, drink and be scary at the QE2 Halloween Brunch – a spooky version of the popular QE2 Friday brunch. The artist in residence will create a series of deliciously frightening feasts featuring jelly spiders, smoking dishes, grisly fingers, eyeballs, pumpkin carvings and more. The crew and live band will be dressed for the occasion whilst a ‘haunted ghost hall’ will keep the little ones busy. For an additional AED 55, children can take part in the haunted tour below decks whilst the adults enjoy free-flowing beverages and live music from the resident band. There will be prizes for the scariest adults and children costumes!

Project Rising Star – Below the Decks Haunted Tour
For decades, a section of the QE2 was cordoned off, locked away from the public by secretive and influential group. What happened behind those doors? What was locked away? And why?
The space is finally unlocked, and now we know. In a decades-long scheme they codenamed Project Rising Star, a disturbing series of botched and failed human experiments were conducted.
Brought to you by Pursued by a Bear Events in collaboration with Theatre by QE2 (the people behind the sell-out Gatsby – The Immersive Experience), this experience sets a new standard of scary that the rest of the industry will aspire.
With three levels to choose from, ‘Level 1’ is perfect for families and the faint-of-heart whilst the scary Level 2 will be available for those willing to risk losing a little sleep. Those brave enough to embark on the Level 3 tour, where the line between historical fact and fiction is blurred to the extent that audiences are left questioning their own sanity, will have to sign a disclaimer and it is advised that people with heart problems or those prone to anxiety do not participate.
Enter from October 17th – November 2nd if you can stomach it. But beware of what – and who – was left behind.
Date & Time: October 17-November 2, 2019
