Located at International Drive in Orlando, the Ripley's Believe It Or Not Odditorium offers fans of the immensely popular show the uncanny opportunity to view some of the world's most astonishing, and even bizarre artifacts and exhibitions at Orlando's only 'Odditorium'.
Here, you can view one-of-a-kind oddities like the famous recreation of Van Gogh's 'Self Portrait in Front of Easel', which has been crafted out of over 3,000 postcards — each of which depict Van Gogh's paintings and drawings, or even the ¾ scale Matchstick Silver Rolls Royce model which, as the name suggests, is made from over 1,000,000 matchsticks! Braver visitors can even take a peek at a Shrunken Human Head sourced from Ecuador, which are just about the size of a human wrist!
The Museum is also currently home to Mr. Ripley's renowned collection of Fertility Statues, while also a two-legged kitten, a 'toasted' mosaic of the Mona Lisa and even a Tibetan flute made of human bone! The Odditorium also dedicates a special section to Houdini, where you can view numerous exhibits from the master illusionist's spectacular career, and even adds a touch of macabre with gruesome torture devices from the Spanish Inquisition.
While here, don't forget to greet Mr. Ripley's holographic form which welcomes you at the entrance! If you have a queer or out-of-the-ordinary artifact of your own, the Odditorium also welcomes you to share it with the rest of the world by granting it a special place in their Hall of Bizarre Wonders!
You can stop by at the Ripley's Believe It Or Not Odditorium from 9 am to 1 am all through the week. Admittance is priced at about $19 per person, with special discounts for groups of 15 or more, and children.
