Does John Pedder Haunt the Queen Mary?
Does someone haunt the engine room?

One spirit said to haunt the Queen Mary on D Deck or door #13 in shaft alley is John Pedder. He was a fireman/cleaner in the number 3 Boiler Room in 1966.  For some reason on a routine drill, the eighteen year old tried to squeeze through the watertight door that closes in less than six seconds.  Some speculated that he was trying to play “Chicken” and unfortunately, it became a deadly game where he lost his life.
 
(#13 door is located at the shaft alley on D deck.)

Ms. Frost let us hold the small copper dowsing rods.  They are used to pick up paranormal energy in the air.  Albert Einstein believed dowsing worked.  He is quoted to have said, “I know very well that many scientists consider dowsing as they do astrology, as a type of ancient superstition. According to my conviction this is, however, unjustified. The dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the reaction of the human nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time." 

I held the rods in the Engine Room where staff and tour guides have reported strange clanging sounds and balls of light move slowly across the walls. Others have seen a mysterious black-bearded man wearing coveralls ride the escalator as if he was on his way to do a job.  Erika Frost asked if the spirits wished to speak with us.  The rods uncannily moved.  It wasn’t a slow movement, but fast and to the left as if someone came by and pushed it.  It continued to do this each time she would ask a question.  
 
Very eerie!
