June 2023: Years and years have gone by and today was sober enough to walk in to see the Museum of the Weird. Well not exactly not the sober part, but it was on my list of places to see over the summer. My first impression was this place was small but as I walked inside I enter a new realm. Just the lobby has lots to see. I bought tickets and my wife and I entered at our own risk. I don’t want to give out surprises but his place was amazing, and crammed full of weirdness and exotic trinkets. It’s much bigger than I thought with lots of rooms and floors to see. As the sign said you will see shrunken heads, fee jee mermaid, cyclops pig, and much more like wax figures. There is even a second gift shop on the top floor. I was very fun to visit and see in keeping Austin weird.
This was such a fun place to visit! Soooo much to read and look at that it would take me hours to actually get through it all. Also the building itself is really cool - perfect for a museum of this nature.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
If you're into anything weird, spooky and just the macabre in general, this is the place for you! Me and my partner went earlier this week and had a blast! There were 4 separate areas and they all have really cool stuff to see and a lot of the objects/props have interesting stories to read about so I recommend taking your time! There are also 2 gifts shops with weird and unique goodies to buy i recommend the Museum of The Weird comic The staff was also very friendly and helpful! There's free 2 hour parking on the street if you can manage to get a spot as well. All in all it was a great experience and I recommend this to anyone who's looking for someone cool to do!
This museum is totally freaky with squeaky doors, old winding staircases and hidden things to find. Older wax museum for the first horror movies. Some pretty gruesome animals and freak show pictures. Only for those who like the creepy freak side show ambiance.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
The name says it all!!! You'll find anything from old clipped fingernails to mermaid fossils, wax figures, and more!! They have cool things at the gift shop as well. I tried mango habanero roasted cricket snacks and they actually good. The cashier told me they have to stock up on those regularlyVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$11–15
It was great, not the Smithsonian so if that's what you're looking for then you're going to be disappointed... like walking through a season of Ripley's believe it or not. Really enjoyed it with my kid, who is into weird stuff.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
Modern day cabinet of curiosities featuring taxidermy, wax figures, movie memorabilia, an actual mummy, and various unexplained objects... all it was missing was the crystal skull. Quite a fun little time if you like this sort of thing, and well worth the price of admission. Also the AC was blowing quite cold, which was refreshing on such a hot summer day.
It was weird and funky. It was a perfect respite from the heat. Wasn't very busy when we went in, packed on the way out. Make sure you look for the exits. it could be bad if something happened and you had to evacuate quickly. Safety first. Price for entry: $12.99
We absolutely loved it. We thought it was going to be short and boring, because of how small it was on the outside. BUT, the museum just kept going and going and going, to different cool areas. It was soooooo worth it. Makes you think why they don't charge more. But I'm blessed they are nice enough to be more affordable, than the other museums. Their gift shops had affordable prices too. The staff were so sweet and nice and knowledgeable. We live 3 hours away, but would go again. I have so many pictures and videos from here.
Lots of weird stuff / artifacts here. Owner Steve Busti created the store and collection with his wife Veronica, reflecting his lifelong fascination with the bizarre. There's a 3,000 year old mummy, and a replica skull of a Texan Bigfoot. There is a wax museum and also an exhibit with an iceman preserved in a freezer. Lots of crazy stuff to see and read.
