Duluth Superior, MN, October 15, 2026 —
A behind-the-scenes look at makeup and prosthetics is drawing attention to the DECC’s Haunted Ship, a Halloween attraction in the Duluth-Superior area. The feature focuses on how actors are transformed into frightening characters for the event, which is described as 31 years old.
The transformation process is the central subject: makeup and prosthetic effects help change the actors’ appearances for their roles. The summary of the feature does not identify the artists involved or describe the products, techniques, or amount of time used, so those details remain unspecified.
The story also looks at the Haunted Ship’s history and how the attraction has evolved. It does not provide dates for particular changes, explain what prompted them, or detail how the event’s format has changed over time. The event’s specific location within the DECC and its operating schedule are not included in the available information.
Together, the focus on character transformations and the attraction’s history offers a view of both the creative work behind the Halloween experience and its development over three decades. The available summary does not include comments from performers or organizers, attendance figures, or further details about the attraction. It therefore establishes the subject of the feature, but not the specifics of how the makeup and prosthetics are created or how the Haunted Ship has changed.
