    This place is the equivalent of an oddities store in your local state without the benefit of being able to purchase anything. Seems the majority of anything and everything has been donated and all the descriptions have the same verbiage. If you want patrons to think it's a descriptions given to you by the person who donated it - don't have the words 'lower realm' on all the descriptions, since no one talks like that. They have a wide array of dolls, oddities, clowns, and various things on the floor below. There's items that have been donated that a child was scared of(Children are scared of a lot of things), a 'homemade head' with plastic vampire teeth and even an orange cone that didn't even have a story other than it was on site during a fatal traffic accident. Interesting to note, that the 'homemade head' with plastic vampire teeth stated it had 'low readings' on the description but is behind a barrier stating all items have a huge connection to the 'lower realm.' How can something have low readings but have a huge connection? $15.00 is probably on the high side for this little museum, especially given the fact you can't take pictures. But that's understandably so, because if the pictures ever made it online - people probably wouldn't go visit - since the only reason you would enter is due to curiosity not because something paranormal is going to happen or come home with you.

    The staff was super sweet! And all the artifacts were intriguing to learn about. The basement feels really uneasy and definitely read the warning before going into Claire's room in the basement. It's was a great experience and I definitely recommend it

    ***Just a heads up you are NOT allowed to take photos or use your phone once you enter the exhibit rooms*** This was the most interesting thing I've done in a while since ghost hunting in Jerome, AZ. They have quite a few "packages" to pick from so I did the regular one for $15. They give you a flashlight and the option to rent some ghost hunting electronics for an additional charge I believe. They have quite the collection of Ouija Boards, dolls, random items, and some clowns (I wasn't ready for the clowns seeing as they terrify me), so just so you know they do have a cute little collection of clown dolls! I do want to go back again to try the 10 minutes in the dark challenge when I'm a little braver. Highly recommend visiting if you are into this kinda stuff.

    We were so excited to visit the Museeum of Shadows! We planned this little trip months in advance. We were visiting from Kansas City and we're stoked to check out this little place. We didn't really know what to expect. I read online that you could do a self guided tour for $15 during the day or you could pay $40 for a Ghost Hunt tour at night. We did the ghost hunt that started at 10pm on a Friday. We arrived a little early to check in. They asked us if we were interested in doing a sit challenge for $10 per person. The sit challenge is when you are left alone in the basement with all lights off for ten minutes. They also offered us ghost hunting equipment. Midway through the hunt, I decided to rent an EMF reader which ended up costing $20 for the duration of the tour. In my opinion, I think this is super overpriced. $40 for the ghost hunt plus all the extras. Ends up being a pretty pricey evening if you want to rent things. Once we walked through the doors for the tour, we were kind of expecting it to be a tour.. I would think that they would tell us some information on some of the haunted items. Instead, it was almost like we were expected to know what to do or who the most haunted doll was. All in all, it was pretty cool but I don't think I would want to come back for the ghost hunt. Makes me wonder what the daytime tour is like. P.S. They don't let you take any photos at all. Again, I think this is totally odd. All ghosts tours I've been on, they encourage you to take photos.

    Only pic I could take

    I read the reviews so I knew what to expect. Staff was very friendly and nice. I was alone in the place so that made it even better. Dim red lights light the area and you use a provided small flashlight to walk around. Artifacts with index cards telling about item and supposedly haunted condition. If you like haunted stuff, then the $20 is worth it. No pictures allowed. I came prepared with a little bit brighter light. All in all I liked it and enjoyed the experience. I didn't do the sit down challenge-extra $10- nor did I rent any ghost hunting devices. I did have a small experience with one of the exhibits and a light flicker and both front desk Gil and I heard something strange over walkie talkie. Sooo......

    Beautiful old buildings. This is the courthouse

The roads leading to the parking include some counterintuitive one ways and you can (and I did) end up in a dead end, but it's generally not busy enough to prevent you from figuring it out. Entrance is free, with one exhibition being a separate paid ticket. I appreciated a substantial portion of the collection devoted to the Native American peoples of the region and the early expansion of the United States. Having said that, it was also a global collection. I gave myself an hour to view it and had to rush just to get a brief run of the place. Some of the modern art didn't really come off for me, but overall it was a thought-provoking collection. There was also a substantial educational component, with rooms being devoted to what looked like early childhood education and more of a summer camp for older children. The site was well known to everyone I talked to in the city, and clearly a significant local institution, but one worth visiting regardless of where you are from.

Would recommend especially those passionate for history, designing, and architecture.

Flight simulators, a theater continuously screening space and air related films, and lots of activities for the kids plus some outside exhibits and benches for enjoying the view round out the experience. The entrance to the museum is beautifully constructed with a SR-71 Blackbird hanging from the ceiling. Many of the exhibits were very unique aircraft including a Quail decoy for the B-52 bomber, one of only 2 XF-85 Goblin parasite fighter escorts ever built, an EC-235C Looking Glass lying command center, a B-58A (one of only 6 remaining) mid range bomber which was the first bomber to break Mach II, first to have stellar-inertial nav and first to have a stainless steel honeycomb structure, and the B-36J was really unique with 6 pusher engines plus turbojets - the largest bomber ever built, plus many more items.
