    It's showtime, baby! Man, oh man, did you guys knock it out of the underworld! (Literally knocked three times, and BAM!) From the moment I set foot through that entrance, it felt like I was walking right into one of Betelgeuse's twisted daydreams. The waiting room, the passports - GENIUS. But stepping into the afterlife? It was like living in a dream, or uh... the opposite, if ya catch my drift. Your whole crew, from the live characters (who nailed it, by the way), to that wicked Sandworm room? Mind. Blown. You brought the chaos, the weirdness, and all the charm of Beetlejuice 1 and 2. My family and I had an absolute blast--every penny was worth it. Give a big, creepy-crawly thank you to your cast and crew - you've earned a thousand sandworms of respect! Until we meet again... in the underworld, of course! Parking in bottom garage free with Validation Drinks: Hard liquor, Soda (Fanta), and water Snacks, Free Butterfingers all you want!

    The Beetlejuice Afterlife Experience was so much fun! The staff were really friendly and into character. Loved the photo opps and interactions with the characters. The only downside is the wait time for the fortune teller, which we waited for about 45 min. She took groups of 8 people at a time, and the fortune telling a lasted about 8-10 minutes for each group. Not worth experiencing, in my opinion. The afterlife diner, drinks, etc. were fun. The frozen man in the Sandworm exhibit was hilarious. And the immigration checks were hilarious. A truly unforgettable experience for a true Beetlejuice fan.

    IMMERSIVE THEATRE I didn't realize this was immersive theatre with many talented actors roaming an open world. It's incredible! I expected more of an instagram museum, don't get me wrong there are plenty of photo ops but it's sooooooo much more than photo ops. It's an outstanding example of skilled performers bringing guests into their world of the Afterlife. I can't speak highly enough about this event or the staff and performers. Top notch professionals bringing a joy filled experience to their guests!

    This place was absolutely amazing!! I had such a great time there! I came to this experience with a friend right after we went to see the movie in 4Dx. There were many creative and beautiful photo-ops, and the characters(actors) were all very attentive, interactive, and overall amazing! This experience was very immersive, and I believe that in order to truly enjoy and get involved you have to be there yourself and in the present! :D Also finally got to try the new Haunted Apple Fanta everyone was raving about: I gotta say I understand now If I could go back just to get twenty or even a bajillion of those cans I would tbh When you guys are there don't forget to try out their beverages at the bar! They have an amazing selection of drinks! Don't forget to grab a passport on the way in, however, you might have to wait in the waiting room for a couple of centuries. They tend to get a bit backed up loll!

    I went with a group of 6 and we had a lot of fun. We got the basic tix for $35pp and it was interactive and lots of photo ops. I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews. What were they expecting? We opted not to wait in line for the psychic but we still enjoyed ourselves. Interacted with the actors, danced in the conga line, and took lots of pics. I think we were there for about an hour.

    Honestly what a waste of money. I felt like it was going to be but based on some reviews I thought l would check it out anyways, wish I didn't . The actors and concession stand employees were awesome. But not worth the price. It wasn't that entertaining, never going to these things again. Feel like just a place to take photos

    Fun experience. I'm a huge fan of Beetlejuice and this experience did not disappoint. It was clever and witty. Would definitely recommend.

    I went to the experience back in September and at the time, there was no review page. Had there had been one, however, I likely wouldn't have even bothered with this "experience" because I'm sure the reviews would've told the REAL story. Bare with me because this is going to be long. Now, let me start off by saying I have lived in Southern California for the better half of a decade so I'm all too familiar with its little tourist traps and tricks like "immersive movie experiences", for example. But as a horror enthusiast, I decided to give this one a shot and asked my fiancé to purchase my ticket. August rolls in and the experience has officially started. I'm now coming across all of these videos on social media of people having a "blast" at this event so when the day finally arrived, needless to say, I'm pretty excited. Since we only have one car and my fiancé had to work that Friday, I had no other choice but to take a $70 + tip Uber ride from our city to West Hollywood (yes, that's how badly I wanted to go). I arrived exactly on time (4:00PM) and was led into a small room to stand in line with a dozen or so other people. As I was waiting, I couldn't help but feel a slight sense of relief that I didn't purchase VIP tickets because the line moved rather quickly. Three knocks and few pictures later, I'm now in the "afterlife." Cool. Decoration wise? It was aesthetically pleasing. Lots and lots of opportunities to take pictures. The actors and actresses costumes were nice and they did a good job at keeping the attendees engaged. I got my passport stamped at immigration and the ladies were hilarious. So far, everything was off to a great start. I then make my way to the main room and this is where disappointment sets in. Upon entering, it quickly became pretty clear that there wasn't exactly a whole lot to do besides take pictures. Of course photo ops were to be expected but like, where is the experience? No games, no activities, etc. If you're going to charge people $40 for an "immersive experience" then we expect an "immersive experience", not just silly photo ops. The closet thing they had to that was the psychic lady, which was kinda meh. I was told I was allowed to stay as long as I want but there wasn't a whole lot to do anyways. I believe I was able to check out everything in about 20 minutes. Maybe even 15? Food? Didn't try anything because every entree was like $20. Drinks? I got a mocktail for like $15 if my memory serves me correctly? It was nothing special but that was my first time trying one so I can't compare it to anything else tbr. As I leave the bar, I run into the "soul train." I'd argue this was probably the coolest photo op there as it made you feel as if you're on a real train however it fell flat because it was too short. Then, just as you're about to exit, a vending machine advertising "$5 Fanta" smacks you right in the face. I got a good laugh out of this because 1) the 7/11 down the street has a 2/$3 deal going on with the same drinks and 2) it was for the orange Fanta flavor and not the popular haunted apple one. There were free butterfingers right outside the train station which was ... cool? I mean it certainly didn't make up for the $40 ticket price but I guess it's the thought that counts? I wanted to do the Photo Booth thing but it was $5. I think this is what ultimately pissed me off about the whole thing. Everything was just buy, buy, buy which left me wondering what exactly was the $40 ticket supposed to include? Because it seems like you basically just pay $40 to take pictures and anything else is gonna cost ya. That's bs and just goes to show that organizers really didn't think this out thoroughly because if they did, they would've at least included some free things to take home. For $40, I only left with a cheap looking passport book, a cheap looking cup (that I payed for) and melted candy... oh, and can't forget my photos I took with the million photo ops for my "memories." Spectacular! All in all, I gotta give it to social media because it did one heck of a job at making this place look far more interesting and fun then it actually was. There's a lot of things that could've been done differently (imo) like including more interactive stuff or giving out some free items, for example. For what I did, it was very overpriced and I wish I had waited a bit longer to read reviews before going. To anyone reading this, do yourself a favor and skip this "experience."

    I am bummed to see the bad reviews. I guess it is really a personal preference. I enjoy dressing up and having fun. I am not sure what some people were looking for. The actors were amazing, the entrance was fabulous with the passport to the after life and being greeted by the dead. Again the lady was super talented at the passport check in part and none of the actors ever broke character. There were tons of photo opportunities, I enjoyed the seance, the train, the beauty parlor with free makeup, I thought there was a lot to do...I mean how many hours of something do you want. I did get the VIP package, I was able to go to the front of the line and got some goodies. The bar was nice too LOL . We even started a conga line with "BeetleJuice himself" and danced around the place. Other people were having fun also which makes it more enjoyable. I am glad I did not run into any negative Nancys. The cons were the bar tenders were a little boring but gave me some heavy pours so I was happy, no one told me that they validate parking and I parked across the street - but it was fun walking around Hollywood dressed like BeatleJuice on Friday the 13th...the tourists loved it. The food could have been better ...but as for the event it is what you make of it and I had a fun time with my friend.

    cool decor

    boring show. could hear beetlejuice over the loud music. poutine and mac and cheese were cold scallops were cold in the middle / raw and i feel sick after eating them cool decor and theme i can't hear the nightmare girl over the bass. no idea what she is signing. subtitles

    On the boogie woogie train

    So much fun! The actors are very interactive the scenes have so much detail and the drinks are strong!!

    For those who may not know, the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, is free from 3 to 5 p.m…read more maybe only on weekdays but maybe weekends too. I am not sure, but most of the information is right, if one is compelled they can fact-broaden my statement. I went to take advantage of this offer but it was June 19th and in honor of the holiday everyone got in for free on this day. But apparently it was a last minute decision. So poor reporting seems to be more like offering information as it comes, not in a malicious way, or incompetent way, more in like the town crier gives what he knows in excitement and it is the responsibility of hearers to know what to do with the information, including vetting it responsibly or accepting it as a gift when given by surprise, even though it could have come in handy earlier. So I entered and I made a beeline to the Butterfly Pavillion. I think it was 12 dollars and worth every single cent. And I write that as a full-blown understatement because exaggeration did not seem the way to go. Like saying this place was worth more than 12 dollars, it was worth the weight of a camel's back in gold. The experience was beautiful. And that statement can be easily understood. I mean butterfly garden + momentary visit= beautiful. But more than that it was a type of beautiful that I had not experience before. It was a new facet of nature's beauty that I experienced. Mostly because I had never interacted with butterflies in this way. For instance, there was a butterfly with wings that were a strong bold blue, almost neon, and for sure, vibrant. Like a royal blue not because it was that shade but because amongst blues it would have palatial lineage in its shade. We were warned that butterflies might be on the ground. And on two experiences two were. The first I encountered was not flying. And the younger members of the experience made sure to announce the butterflies presence and its vulnerability. I feel like sometime in this place's history a butterfly did get stepped on. And for no other reason, than the natural happens. In the second occasion, a butterfly was trying to fly or stand still and could not because the winds made it topple. During that moment a butterfly apparently landed on my back. Man people, if not all, wonder if a butterfly will land on them? And what it would mean? I mean, it could be good news. Saying that a butterfly landing on a person is an omen of disaster does quite fit the visual of the insect and what horror brings. A butterfly did land on my wrist and of course one can't help but feel special. Like, the butterfly chose me and its trying to communicate something. Something important that the universe wants me to hear. What exactly that is? I am not sure. I need to reflect on that later or I will know when the butterfly effects comes clearer in time.

    I am finally visiting the Natural History Museum, not only that but I'm also super excited to go to…read morethe Orca Exhibit with a friend of mine who's also a whale lover. We arrived at 9:30am. The security at the Garden area miscommunicated what we needed to do. She told us to go check in at the ticket booth so we waited in line even though we had tickets only to be told to go back to her to get the bracelet.. we basically waited in a line that was not needed. That was a little annoying to say the least and not a good first impression. Thankfully we were early and our excitement took over fast enough to brush that off. We made it in! As we walked through the museum, we peeked into some of the different rooms on our what to the Orcas Exhibit and were excited to see more. We made it with our additional tickets purchased for this part of the museum since the Orca Exhibit is considered a special exhibit. It was totally worth it to see a life size whale replica of Ruffles! As we migrated around to a Dino room, we heard the PA system go on.. sadly we had NO idea what they were saying. Were we being told about some limited time special at the guest shop or caf or was this a serious matter.. we didn't understand what the PA system was saying so we heard the message again and then again to finally understand that we were going to be sheltering in place due to a dangerous situation near by. Well first, it shouldn't take more than one message to know that there is a situation happening .. second of all, it was really tough to find any employee around to ask what was said or what was happening. That was a little disappointed but we were happy that they took precaution to keep us safe by sheltering in place (thank you for that). As we wandered around hungry and thirsty (no outside food or drinks are allowed) we were trying to keep each other calm while also hearing the helicopter circling around the area. Thankfully we finally found someone that asked us if we had any questions which we did. As he realized that we had been at the museum since this morning and had already been through all the exhibits including the orca one (which we noticed no longer required the additional tickets) he was kind enough to share a room with us with some snacks and water. (The museum refunded us the Orca exhibit fee, thank you for that) Over all: Emergency communication: When the shelter-in-place announcement came over the PA system, it took multiple repetitions before we could understand what was being said. In an urgent situation, clarity on the first announcement is critical. It also took considerable effort to locate a staff member who could tell us what was happening. I'd strongly encourage reviewing both PA audio quality and staff visibility protocols for emergencies. Check-in process: When we arrived at 9:30am, the security staff at the Garden area gave us unclear instructions. We were directed to wait in line at the ticket booth despite already having tickets, only to be sent back to get our bracelets. A small thing, but worth noting for future visitors. I do want to sincerely thank the staff member who eventually found us, recognized we had been there since opening, and kindly provided us with water and snacks while we waited. That gesture meant a lot. He also went above and beyond when another guest needed assistance; the kind of care he showed is exactly what you'd hope to see. I really wish I would have gotten his name to give him the proper recognition he deserved. Would I go back? Yes, in the hopes of a much smoother, less stressful type of experience. The dinosaurs are amazing to see and get perspective on how huge they were.

Parking was $19.00 for the first three hours with validation. The art museum is truly a gem of Los Angeles. It can be challenging to reserve tickets because open time slots fill up quickly, especially during the summer months when many people are on vacation. The artwork on display is mesmerizing, beautiful, and thought-provoking. Personally, I appreciated every single piece of art I observed, as so much work, love, and dedication went into each item on display that one can only wonder what the artists were thinking or feeling as they created their masterpieces. The entire museum is well-maintained, spotless, and fun. Security is extremely important, as evidenced by the many staff members closely monitoring the large crowds around each section of the museum. Staff members are also there to answer any questions. I wish to rerun here very soon with family and friends, as our visit was educational, inspiring, and fun.

I thought it was a timed entry but it is not...or it wasn't when we went. I followed the parking sign on the wall which led me to a lot just a little north of the museum. It was $20 to park there. Had I had more time to plan, I may have parked somewhere else as I felt that was a bit steep. I'm assuming metered parking would be hard to find in that location as it is in the heart of Hollywood. I thought it would be similar to the Museum of Illusions in New York, but rather than a museum feel, this was purely just photo ops. You can rent tripods at the front for $10. They also provide free lockers for your bags and stuff- which I would highly recommend. I didn't take up the offer in the beginning but soon realized that was a better option. I would also like to highly recommend and thank Tim! He showed us the ropes of how to take photos and he took some photos for us. He was friendly, professional and patient with my two young kids. He definitely knows his way around an iPhone camera and showed me some tricks I didn't even know. Tim's photos came out a lot better than mine as you need to find the perfect angle for the pictures to have that illusion effect. The tickets I purchased online also allowed us to go to the giant house next door and the upside down house. Tim came to the rescue again and took some amazing photos for us in the upside down house. It was a fun experience for all of us and I would definitely recommend visiting this location. If you see Tim, ask him for some pointers! Thank you, Tim!

There are several photo-friendly illusion setups that make for some cool and creative shots. We bought the bundle deal and also visited the Upside Down House and the Giant House. While those were interesting to see, there still wasn't much to do at either location besides taking pictures. One thing I really appreciated was the front cashier--He was very nice and welcoming, which made the check-in experience pleasant. However, I don't think the visit was quite worth the price. It felt a bit too expensive for what it offers, especially considering the bundle included all three exhibits. The experiences are fun for photos, but they're fairly short and limited in activities. For the amount you pay, it would be nice if there were more interactive things to do or more areas to explore. Overall, it's a good spot if you're really into taking fun illusion photos, but if you're expecting a longer or more activity-filled experience, it may feel a bit overpriced.

    Today's Headline: Go Before Everyone Else Figures It Out…read more I'll be honest. I didn't fully understand what I was walking into. I knew the new David Geffen Galleries had just opened and there was a block party, but I surprised by what the day actually turned into. First, the building. The sweeping architecture crossing Wilshire stops you cold. You walk underneath this massive concrete structure floating over the blvd, then head up into a single floor of galleries. I loved that everything shares the same space instead of being separated by era or geography. One minute you're looking at a 3,000-year-old Olmec head, the next you're standing in front of El Anatsui or two Luis Arenal paintings that completely stopped me. The building somehow makes everything feel extraordinary. I visited on opening weekend and during the LA Art Parade, so part of this review is about a one-time event. There were actual pieces of the Berlin Wall outside, Flying Lotus played a free set on the lawn next to the tar pits, and later they closed Wilshire Boulevard for Jeffrey Deitch's Art Parade. I've lived in LA a long time, and I've honestly never seen anything like it. Somewhere between wandering the galleries, drinking coffee on our blanket in the grass right next to an active dig site, and watching Wilshire transform into an art parade, this day quickly became one of my favorite LA days. You know I keep track. I'll definitely be back on a quieter afternoon to better appreciate the architecture and the experience that the architect is trying to give. As exciting as opening weekend was, I think this is the kind of museum that deserves a slower visit when you can spend time with the art instead of the crowd. A couple practical notes: the bag policy is strict (nothing bigger than 11" × 14" and no bag check), and the D Line drops you almost at the front door.

    Just returned from my first (perhaps last) visit to the new Geffen Gallery and wow, what a…read moredisappointment. The new building is oppressive, dreary, and terribly designed. There is either too much light and glare to see the exhibits, or it is too dark to see anything. The concrete grey that is everywhere does nothing to set off the works of art on display. And the walls resonate any sound so even hushed conversation quickly echoes into a din. I am so disappointed that after all this time and the loss of some great galleries and historic buildings this "art prison" is what Los Angeles is left with. Thank goodness the Resnick Pavilion, the BCAM, and the Japanese Pavilion are still intact (though the latter has not reopened yet). I felt my faith in this institution slightly restored by walking through the BCAM after my dismal experience in the David Geffen Galleries. I still love this collection, and I hope they find some way to fix the lighting in the new gallery. Because the BCAM still has wonderful pieces displayed respectfully, I am only removing two stars, but it will take something really special for me to set foot in the Geffen Gallery again.

Of course, the place is already quite dirty as it is, especially since it's closing soon. Some of the rooms were cool. I like the balloon room and the lights, but some people should really read the rules. First off, this family blocked the stairway to get in. And one of the family members was this short, big guy who was just running in the balloon room in circles and popping all the balloons and kicking them around up over the walls. Now that's fine, but then me and boyfriend tried to make our way in and another couple too, were there. He continued to kick up a bunch of balloons, while me and another person was trying to take pictures. He even accidentally knocked down his daughter in the process. He was extremely obnoxious and even joked about it with his family members, who just laughed and took videos. Now most of the interactive stuff was bad. It was gross for the most part due to all the germs, dirt, and hair. The balls and balloons all have random dirty smears of brown and orange on them. The ball pit was very dirty. I assume they're not planning on sanitizing any time soon due to the exhibit closing down. Anyways, we go into the light room and the worker says stay in the path and don't the lights. After two minutes, all of a sudden these three kids run in and start going into the lights and grabbing them, she stares and doesn't say a thing to them. These kids are super rowdy so I say something, and then she says oh, yeah don't do that. Pretty useless in my opinion. Most of this stuff is geared towards kids, but my bar was already super low.

Is it Mark Rothko's rectangles of color? Or is it a sculpture of Venetian blinds, a pair of checker boards, and/or mosaics of made of postcards? I came up with my own answers to these questions but more importantly, form yours by spending an hour or so visiting the Museum of Contemporary Art. Why not? The price is right!

    Moca was a little bit underwhelming. Only a few art installations were amazing to me. Maybe im not…read morean art person but i dont think you need more than 30 minutes here. The front reception were super nice and even told us where the bathrooms were. You know,In case we wanted our exhibit as the bathroom. Haha.. the other workers were extremely rude. My friend was 2 feet away and pointed to a location on a map and got yelled at for not being 2 ft away. She was confused because she was 2 feet away but i told her it was cause they thought she was using super powers from her fingers. There was one where it was window blinds being used as art and we knew we cant touch it but there wasnt any instructions on not being able to walk under it.. we got yelled at for walking underneath it. Alot of the words were small and im not sure if id be able to read them from 2 feet away but i didnt want to get yelled at so i skipped all the reading.

    The California Science Museum is the best and maybe only option for kids and adults to experience…read morethe world of science around us in Los Angeles. The Space Shuttle Endeavor is here and might have been what initially drew me to the museum but they have an IMAX theater as well as new rotating exhibits to keep things fresh. The current new exhibit is Mummies. And don't forget to go outside and see the SR-71 Blackbird by the parking structure.

    It hurts to not rate this 5 stars because I have been going to this museum since I was 6, but…read morehaven't been in a while. Nothing can beat the fact that it's free admission (but $20 parking), but this trip was devastating. So many of the exhibits I loved as a kid are no longer operating, the bird simulators have 2 balls to share among 6 booths, the buttons for many things are gone, there's no marble to represent an elephant baby's metaphorical marble maze through life, Tess the giant body animatronic is unviewable, the outdoor water play area is closed off, the ROV is no longer displayed and the simulator is broken, etc. Some recent reviews here are posted this week but clearly are from many years back, Endeavor has not been on display for close to 3 years (but it will be when the Samuel Oschin Space Exhibit opens Nov 17, 2026!), currently there's a physical motion exhibit where endeavor previously was. I completely forgot to check it out but the photos are cool and they've put the old rock climbing wall that was next to the teleprompter, here now. But the aquarium is still top notch, tons of fish a child gave me a thrilling lecture on the difference between tiger, leopard, and lemon sharks (He told me lemon and tiger sharks are neon yellow, I strongly believe him). You can pet an urchin, a sea slug, or a star fish depending on the day but the hand dryers after are broken. The foxes, lizards, tortoises, and bugs are all living their best lives. There's a nice sitting place on the top floor to relax away from it all. Still deeply love this Science Center, but I wish they'd secure some funding to bring some life back to many of their exhibits, but I'm really excited for the Space Center to be ready! 100% worth a visit when that opens.

    The Getty Center is so gorgeous and you can spend way more than a day here if you really examined…read moreevery crack & crevice of the museum and grounds. A few tips~~~ 1. Admission is free but you must pre-book your ticket - closed Mondays. 2 Parking is $25, eek! However after 3pm, it's $15 and after 5pm, it's free! 3. GPS here can be tricky - use N Sepulveda Blvd & Getty Center Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90049 for your directions. 4. You first park then must take a tram to get to the grounds. You will go through a security check before even boarding the tram. 5. They have their own App with maps, audio tours, and commentary. 6. You can pack a picnic or eat at their restaurants/cafes there but the picnic option is ideal! 7. Wear walking shoes and dress for the weather as it's indoor AND outdoors. 8. If it does rain, they have loaner umbrellas available! A cute touch. My personal favorite bit was the outdoor areas and cactus garden. So darn pretty! It's really nice to spend a day exploring The Getty Center.

Admission is free, though parking has a fee, and it was well worth it. Between the gorgeous grounds, impressive architecture, and peaceful atmosphere, this is a must-see when visiting LA. There was a special exhibit throughout the center which changes and keeps it fresh.
