One afternoon, my wife, son and I were taking a stroll through the center of Milford near the town…read moregreen. On a telephone pole, I saw what looked like an advertisement for a carnival, but it was for a new store called Weirdo Wonderland. It said it was a store dedicated to all things strange and unusual. I've been obsessed with horror and sci-fi films my whole life, so it sounded like it was right up my alley. I eventually popped in on a Saturday afternoon. I was stunned when I walked in. Lots and lots of horror and sci-fi collectibles. Tons of old movie posters and art prints. Various props, masks, old toys, plastic model kits, comics, and even old issues of "Famous Monsters of Filmland". The owner was very personable too. I'll definitely be popping in again to check out their collection of creepy chachkies.

I have no idea how this standby and important (supplies) store gets such a low rating? I just…read moreshopped there for the 100th time and everything on my hobby list was there. Reasonably priced and cheaper than ordering on Amazon by the way as that is no longer a bargain deal. The only constant and I will live with it is the sometimes long waits to get out. That is the price one pays for getting excellent prices which they have and a great selection. If this store rolls up and leaves that would be a real loss especially after losing first A.C.Moore than Joann's and being with just one large supplier for the hobby world. I do suspect that some competitors are making these low rating remarks. I never trust negative especially about stores and worse restaurants. I think they are staged.
