In town for the horse races so decided to have some fun and this place does not disappoint!…read more Everyone is so nice and helpful. So, there are different sections and you lay according to what you want to do which, I think, is ridiculous! But we tried them all! We expected about 90 minutes based on the website information and ended up there for 3 hours! Obviously they have a gift shop but very unique and popular where kids line up is the hand wax molding they do. Kids love it as they dip their hands in wax and the employees are very skilled at doing them. Keep in mind, we came with no kids, just 4 adults and it was, not only, interesting, but quite fun! In order of my favorites: By far the "moving theater" was exhilaration and fun. You sit in simulators with 3 D glasses on and have attached hand guns you use like in an arcade. Object is to shoot as many werewolf's as possible for points and the one with most points wins. The guy heading it was also helpful as well as fun and even offered to take a group photo for us. The chairs move and fans blow wind, it was my favorite! -House of Fear- another excellent experience, you walk through and see different types of menacing creatures typically found in horror flicks, very fun and somewhat interactive as you walk through, loved it -wax museum was next fave, so cool all the genres and time pieces, they weren't too lifelike but close enough to be amazed! -the regular Ripley's museum takes the longest only because so so many things to read about, the displays had very bizarre things and people, a little on the twisted side. -my least favorite was the house of mirrors. I just didn't like it, I went in and quickly turned around only to exit out of the entrance! However, this was my mom's favorite!! All in all, a very fun experience, it wasn't too crowded at all and they were a bit understaffed, but a nice experience for the family

Today one of the workers helped me to understand why the Ice Age is a proven time for certain parts of the earth. And she talked about how the Trex was actually more docile and not as aggressive as the movie Jurassic Park portrays. I am not disagreeing with this thought, but I wonder what evidence or whatnot they've found to support this. I'm interested in knowing, not trying to challenge anyone's findings!

It was a nice walking through it from the very beginning where they had the portraits of scientist that were Christians. The men in the portraits came alive, describing their discoveries. It's been a while, but I do plan on going back and bringing some friends. It is well worth the visit and it takes a long time. Well, worth the time.

The lady at the museum was very sweet and helpful. The museum definitely needs upgrades in technology. She wrote down the original total of my merchandise, calculated the discount on a calculator, wrote down the discount, entered each item on the computer. It was really time consuming.

The Mustangs are located in a hip active area that offers music museums cafes restaurants and and sightseeing. Definitely worth 5 minutes of your time, but you might find yourself spending the day.

We spent around 3 hours to do all of them and that is when I did a 2nd walk around with the wax museum and Mr. Ripley's. They do have snacks and a gift shop as well. This includes the following 1. Mirror Maze (you can do as many times as you want) 2. Power Play 3. Wax Museum 4. Mr. Ripley's Believe it or Not 5. 7D Theatre with a shooting game Mirror Maze - this takes around 10-15 minutes to do. You have to wear gloves as you can use your hands to touch. I would definitely walk slowly on here as it is easy to bump into the mirror and hurt yourself. But once you find out the secret you can do the maze without hands. We had a fun time in here. There was a selfie room too. But I would take your time in here. Power Play - this is a shooting game that takes 5 minutes per game. You can can choose one selection. There was no line so we ended up playing 3 times. The guns do not work really well and the aiming is off. The con is you can get dizzy playing too. 7D Theatre - This moving chairs and a gun where you can shoot. The theatre holds around 14 people and small. I had a fun experience with this game. There are two games too bad we could not play the other one like the robot Wax Museum - this is the one I spent a lot of time on and had most fun. Some of the wax figures can be hideous and not look like each other. Donald Trump did not look like him and looked like a zombie. The other presidents looked alright. It does have an old smell to it. The haunted house was pretty cool, but scary to. You can opt out if you want. This is probably the main star of this place. Mr. Ripley They have some fun activities to do. It is a museum of oddities and you can learn some facts along the way. I thought it was alright. This is more of the kids I think. Overall, a great experience and something to do. Do not forget to visit the outdoor section where they have dinosaurs.
