William A. Irvin Haunted Ship Tours – Duluth, MN

The William A. Irvin has been transforming into the Haunted Ship each October for nearly 30 years. Brave visitors can experience a real scare by taking a self-guided tour through the once historic ore ship that has been flipped inside out to reveal its true identity. The haunting of the Irvin is not just a rumor, as mysterious and paranormal sightings have been recorded throughout history.

This year, the Haunted Ship crew was inspired to create several new areas, while refreshing props in every room for a new fever dream of a tour. This year’s waking nightmare includes a sinking German U-boat with water flooding in, a narrow escape through catacombs and an abandoned castle with tension at every turn, a vortex delivery to a Victorian parlor and library, and even more thrilling elements.

Starting in the engine room you will travel through the ship until you land in your final destination that is below the freezing waters of Lake Superior in the maze of terror. If you thought the rest of the ship was terrifying, just wait until you step down into the maze. While down in the pitch dark “dungeon” of the ship, not knowing where you’re going is the least of your worries. Watch your back; you never know who’ll be hovering over your shoulder.
