An interesting and inexpensive stop to make while in Wilmington- cost about $16 for three of us, including the mirror maze Museum is full of oddities. It's all on one floor, and doesn't take long to walk through (took me maybe 10/15 minutes and i was reading at every section). It has multiple horror movie props/statues, a lot on serial killers, odd creatures, and more. There was a sword swallowing performance, which was cool too. The mirror maze was fun, and a good way to end our experience there. Gentlemen at the front desk was very nice and helpful

Super cool place. Smaller than I expected. Had a live sword swallowing show that was cool. Good timing when I got there. Mirror maze is very small, but very enjoyable. Had Weird Al's "Don't Download This Song" playing during it. There was 9 of us in our group... could help but stop and vibe to it whilst in the maze. The maze was very, very cool. Please don't let how tiny it is set you back. Great group of folks. Take your time and absorb it all in. It is a small place, but they do have a lot of things on display

We vacation every year by Wilmington. This is usually one of our first stops while there. I love this place, and could actually spend a few hours in there just reading about things. They are adding new things and changing it around all the time, so it's always different. This time, they have a section dedicated to serial killers. Letters, weapons, you name it, they have it. I don't know how they are able to aquire alot of this stuff, but I'm glad the did! Definitely worth the $3 dollars for your ticket! For something totally different, you need to visit the Museum of the Bizarre!!!!!

My teenage son and I loved this little museum! It's so worth the price! Very neat stuff! Lots of history and hidden gems. We especially liked the photo ops with the life-sized movie characters. The gentleman at the ticket counter was very nice and very informative.

All the exhibits and things inside the museum (including chairs, carpets, and lightbulbs) are 100% actually there and do not exist in some realm of fiction or your imagination.
