"We're going big this season," said Zak Bagans, lead investigator. "From the massive Queen Mary ship in California to Ireland's Leap Castle and Mexico's Island of the Dolls, each location is embedded with layers of paranormal activity to explore. As Nick, Aaron and I dig deeper to capture compelling evidence, we're instituting a variety of new investigation tactics, experiments and equipment."

In the season premiere, the investigative trio climb aboard the legendary ocean liner Queen Mary, now permanently docked in Long Beach, Calif. and considered to be one of the most haunted places in the world. Not long after the ship's maiden voyage in 1936, it was put into military service. Tragedy surrounded the ship - nicknamed the "Gray Ghost" - until 1967 when it dropped anchor for good and became a hotel, still in operation today. Weighing more than 81,000 tons and over three football fields in length, the Queen Mary's haunted history is as large and looming as the ship itself. With reports of multiple apparitions and voices - including that of a former crewman and little girl - the trio prepares for a powerful investigation. They first conduct a séance to channel the spirit of world renowned psychic and paranormal pioneer Peter James, who used the ship as basecamp for his studies and captured EVPs (electronic voice phenomena) of the little girl named "Jackie." Inviting EVP specialist Debbie Constantino on the lockdown, the team splits up to investigate the massive ship and are immediately confronted with disembodied voices, intelligent responses, light anomalies and a figure that will give chills to even the greatest of skeptics.
