  Typical tourist trap but fun and a good time. Gift shop had a good assortment of shirts and goodies. Staff was friendly and helpful. Also I got to see Johnny Depp's back door...

  Intriguing. Side show was fun, performer was entertaining, humorous, and personable. And he has an adorable pup. Ask lots of questions about the Iceman. There's something about the wax museum as well, you'll have to see if you can figure it out. Oh right, and the place is haunted.

  What can I say about this place other then it's weird. If you are hanging on 6th st, you should definitely check this place out. It's $12 to get in but I guess that's a small price to pay to keep this cool place going. Not a ton of stuff to see, but enough to creep you out a bit.

  This museum was a huge disappointment. It is incredibly small and did not live up to any expectations. It consists of 3 parts: 1) a very brief self-tour through a short hallway of fake replicas, 2) a sideshow circus event where a man shoved nails and balloons through his nose for 10 minutes, and 3) a completely out of place wax museum of scary movie characters from the 1950s. It's $12 and I would completely not recommend. Heck even if it was free I wouldn't recommend it. If you like being stuck in small rooms with strangers, then maybe this place is for you!

  For 12 dollars (the price of admission for an adult) you can probably find some more entertaining things to check out compared to this place. After getting your ticket you're shuffled through a claustrophobic gift shop into a tiny room while you await your tour guide. This is the perfect opportunity to think about all the mistakes you've made leading up to the decision of coming here. This place just feels super hokey - nothing about it is legitimately interestingly "weird". If I had to say something positive, the staff seemed friendly and our tour guide was good with kids/pretty funny.
