Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum

Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum houses over 400 of the most bizarre and outlandish oddities that you will ever see, ranging from a two-headed calf  to an authentic vampire killing kit from 1850. Located directly on the Highway 76 Strip in Branson, the exterior of the museum is as unique as what's housed inside! Popular exhibits include items like a replica of the U.S.S. Forrestal made out of toothpicks and matchsticks, a Roman Coliseum replica built out of playing cards, an array of optical illusions, a genuine shrunken human head, and more ... and that's just the beginning. Fun optical illusions will have your entire family laughing together, while some of the odd and bizarre displays may leave you with nothing else to do but shake your head in disbelief!

The unique exterior of Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum is based on the results of the great Missouri earthquake that struck the New Madrid fault in 1812. This massive earth-shaker was so powerful that it made the Mississippi River run backwards for three days ... believe it or not!

The museum is open until 11 p.m. from mid-March until December, making it the perfect activity to walk to after nearby evening shows like The Hughes Brothers, 50's At The Hop, and Legends in Concert!
