A Haunted Night Aboard Star of India

Thursday, October 22, 2026 • 7:00–10:00 p.m. • 21+ Only

Step aboard Star of India after dark for a haunted waterfront night filled with music, cocktails, mystery, and maritime legends.

Dance beneath the rigging to Harbor the People, sip specialty drinks, hear eerie stories from the sea, and take part in an interactive mystery hunt featuring hidden clues, keys, codes, and the Davy Jones Cryptex.

Costumes are welcome and encouraged, but not required.

Harbor the People

San Diego-based DJ collective Harbor the People is known for its #BringBackDancing events, creating high-energy dance experiences in unexpected spaces.

For one night, they bring that energy aboard the historic Star of India. Dance beneath the rigging, grab a drink, and experience the ship after dark.

The Davy Jones Mystery Hunt

Hidden throughout the event are letters, clues, codes, and keys waiting to be discovered. Follow the clues, decode mystery letters, find designated keys, and see if you can crack the Davy Jones Cryptex.

Completing designated challenges may earn entries into special prize drawings and other prize opportunities.

Finding a key or solving the Cryptex does not guarantee a prize.

Haunted Stories of the Sea

Discover eerie maritime tales, shipboard superstitions, and ghostly legends inspired by life at sea.

Some stories are part of history. Others are best told after dark.
