The Queen Mary Shipwreck Terror Fest is looking to hire more than 400 hundred monsters to work in seven terrifying mazes aboard the ship, which is permanently docked in Long Beach, California.
Talented makeup artists are also needed to make the monsters look ghoulishly good, and Shipwreck attendant positions are available as well. This is most definitely adventure travel -- and you'll get paid, too.
Current wages for monsters, attendants and makeup artists are as follow: Shipwreck monsters, $9.00/hr, Shipwreck attendants, $8.00/hr, makeup artists, $15.00/hr. Audition dates for monsters and attendants are September 18, 19, 25 and 26 at 6:00 p.m.
Makeup artists need only apply on September 19 and 26 at 7:00 p.m. Be sure to bring a portfolio of your work to the auditions. Everybody applying for a terrifying Halloween job on the Queen Mary must bring proof of employment eligibility, including a Social Security card and a valid photo ID.
And, you must be at least 18 years of age and able to work from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. (later on some nights) on all of these scary dates: October 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 13, 19, 20, 21, 27, 28, 30, and Halloween Night the 31st.
The maiden voyage of the venerable Art Deco Cunard queen was in 1936, and this year is the 40th anniversary of her 1967 final voyage and arrival at her permanent home in Long Beach, California. The grander Queen Mary 2 is now sailing under the same Cunard flag.
If you aren't being a monster, you can sleep over in this unusual on-the-water hotel, enjoy a meal in one of three award-winning restaurants, or take a historical, informational, and paranormal tours. Is the Queen Mary haunted? Find out on Halloween.
Boo!
