Ok...some displays shut down due to COVID..tickets a bit spendy for what they do have interesting typical Ripley things. Also went to The Wax Museum..not worth it..half the displays look nothing like the person and half closed down due to "repairs and COVID" combination ticket price VERY high

This and the adjoining wax museum has been around for decades. They both saw an extensive renovation this year, with mixed results. If you are casual fan and I’ve never been here before, it’s a fun tourist attraction with plenty of novelty. If you’re familiar with the previous shows, Ripley’s has been completely overhauled into a brighter, more modern interactive experience. Gone is the sense of shadowy adventure and historical mystery, replaced with social-media sensibilities and avoidance of anything distressing or too unusual. The wax museum, however, has a lot of changes but not necessarily for the better. Now it is mostly pop culture characters, rather than real people from history. This is fine occasionally (like with their Marvel characters) but their inclusion of horror characters from the 70s and 80s feels both outdated and less interesting. Plus, some of the previous figures that didn’t work well at all – I’m looking at you Sacajawea – are still there. So it is definitely updated, and feels more professional on a certain level, but this old-timer feels it lost a little bit of its feeling of mystery and wonder in exchange for brightly-lit cultural icons.

Interesting collection of weird and odd things from around the world. Some real and a few fakes. Lots of interactive things break up the museum feel and create a fun environment. We only did the Ripley's side and not the wax portion and it took us just under 2 hours. A little pricey but worth it if you are looking for something fun to do out of the rain.
