Then for a while, uh, Shaquille O'Neal took over, and it was Shaqtober, and it was just Shaquille O'Neal themed, and that was odd.

But now it's back to Queen Mary Dark Harbor.

[laughs] Shaquille was like, "People aren't getting my vision."

[laughs] They're not getting my vision of Shaqtober.

They aren't getting it.

Um, but now it's back to Queen Mary Dark Harbor.

It's in Long Beach.

It's a drive, but I, I s- I took Kyle one year for his birthday, 'cause his birthday's in October, so we usually do a spooky thing.

This is, this is probably gonna be our only real, like, haunt episode, so I'm just gonna sneak some of this in here.

Uh, Queen Mary Dark Harbor was absolutely fantastic last year.

The number of mazes probably not gonna rival something like Knott's or Universal.

Definitely no rides or anything like that.

We would go back to the Hayride.

Queen Mary's Dark Harbor.

And we notably went to Rob Zombie's American Scream out in the Pomona Fairgrounds.

Yes.

Hmm.

then go back to my shift making change so i am loosely a part of the monster family and even though i'm on the outside edge i still feel grateful and welcome to be amongst the haunt family i love haunts so much that i remember one time the first year i went to the queen mary dark harbor You and John were working on Dark Harbor, and you had made a few changes.

You guys were teaching the monsters.

You had a few new maze concepts that you had put together.
