    What a treasure trove this little gem turned out to be! From taxidermy mice in fishing boats to terrifyingly staged clown photo shoots, if it's appeared in your strange dreams, it's there. Everywhere you turn there's something new to look at and there are even drawers of goodies to rifle through like you're a kid in your grandmother's attic. 10/10 recommend if you're anywhere in the Ybor City area!

    I'm not sure how to review this. My husband and I were walking through ybor exploring and stumbled upon this curious place. We stepped inside and it reminded me of an old timey circus peculiar parlor. Cool, right? The shop owner (I think it's the owner) allowed us to take pictures, but out of respect for the dead didn't want us to photograph the human remains?? There were human skulls on display. Which initially I had no clue they were real. At this point no judgment. Lots of cool war artifacts from WW2 and 1. As well as old photographs, creepy looking dolls, taxidermy pieces, and t-shirts and sage smudge sticks for sale to name a few items. It was a lot of fun looking through all the stuff! It was so interesting. The part that was really bothersome is something I debated on even mentioning, but here goes. I'm all for inclusivity on spirituality and religion! But I draw the line at satanic religion. I'm privy to the terrible experiences people have been traumatized by at the hands of these types of cults. So when I happened upon several stacks of the satanic bible for sale I decided to put my smudge stick back. I can't be part of anything that would knowingly sell brand new copies of the satanic bible. If it weren't for that, I'd have considered 4-5 stars. Unfortunately I likely will never return.

    Very interesting and unique. I bought an antique armadillo purse that I absolutely love.

    Great weird shop! I have been wanting to hit up this place since I moved here a year ago. They have shrunken heads and bones, things in jars, sage, unique jewelry...The list goes on. It's also attached to a cute coffee shop. Definitely worth a peek.

    Awesome shop! Really cool staff and just the most amazing little treasures everywhere you look!

    Very cool taxidermy animals. Enjoyed looking around so much to see. Coffins, skeletons, body parts in jars, books & lots of clever things displayed well.

    Skulls, mounted heads, etc.

    Five stars for taxidermy art? Why not. Who doesn't love dead animals displayed artfully with accoutrements. They used to be in St. Pete. Now they are in Ybor. Weird place worth checking out.

    Strange but intriguing items.

    Exceptional service, totally unique product. Perfect for that one-of-a-kind gift or decorator item.

    Definitely one of the most unique places I've been to! I loved this place - after stumbling upon it online when looking for stuff to do while in Tampa, I had to add this to my list & was glad I did! There are so many beautiful and interesting things in this place. From skulls to taxidermy, and so much more, it's definitely worth coming to walk through it! The staff was so friendly too and answered my questions. It is really one-of-a-kind and a must see!

    I enjoy the pictures I have seen from this shop. I have wanted to visit for some time. Interesting minerals, herbs, jewelry and taxidermy.

    This gallery fits perfectly in Ybor. There's some interesting taxidermy, dark funeral parlor pieces, dark whimsical pieces, paintings, jewelry and much more. Price range is pretty broad - you can find something to fit your budget. I have young bugs and was nervous bringing them in with me... The owners were fantastic. They explained what is "not for touching" and directed the kids to items they could explore. This place is a must see... Very intriguing.

    This place is seriously awesome. Not for the basic-at-heart. I have always wanted to go into an oddities shop like this and was not disappointed! Real bones of all kinds, human teeth, infant coffins, live scorpions, and specimen jars are just a few of the things you can find there. The owner is a peach, and I was lucky enough to meet her daughter there as well who is a firecracker! I wanted to buy all sorts of creepy things (hubby vetoed the scorpion), but settled for three dried butterflies that I will frame and add to my collection. I really wish there were a place like this in Boston!

    See all

    They also support local art and artists and to me, that's what Ybor is all about.

    I visited the store again to support the Pumpkins for 'Possums event. It was wonderful to see…read moreeveryone who came out to support. I appreciated how the store and event was ran with separate lines for the the entry into the store and the line for interacting with the possum. I waited in the line for the store which only took about 10 minutes. The store was packed with people but even more importantly, really cool Halloween merch! I liked the photo op area in the front of the store. I this the store hosting this charity event was amazing. I waited in line for the possum where I got to pet the possum and donate. I even got a pumpkin to take home.

It isn't a big location but there is quite a lot inside. They have some items that you can find online and other items that are made by local artists. I would say the pricing is a little higher but not too unaffordable. I found a gorgeous gothic lace sleeve piece that I found online for $3 less. I would rather support locally so I had no problem paying a little more. The staff was friendly and helped take photos of my family and zi around their coffin. I'm not sure if the coffin is always there or just there for the anniversary, but it was a fun photo spot. If you're in the area or looking for a place to get some Goth or spooky gear, I highly recommend checking this place out. They also have coffee so you can get your caffeine fix while here too. You can even try on the clothing in the bathroom where they have a cool coffin mirror.

    WOAH!!! Just Woah!! When i heard a gallery was having a Peter Max exhibition i was already down!…read moreRain or shine i was gonna go! Beautiful young lady at the entrance catalog my reservation, which i was later told you don't really need it. They are doing one more day tomorrow from 1pm to 3pm, im definitely going to bring my mother in. Their collection was huge n beautiful. They had all the paintings im used to seeing from him n then many more of the ones i never seen. They have a new "to us" section of his collection of pop art posters. Just groovy n gorgeous colors, that bring the still images into another realm of perspective beauty. I really wanted to walk out with a few but im no where near the bank needed to do that lol. But i have gone full wild n walked out of auctions with his work before. To those that don't know? In most art auctions there's FREE booze. And this girl right here has gotten very very very VERY! "INSPIRED". I was speaking to one of the nice ladies in the show room about the last time i got "inspired" i won 3 guessing, matching n hidden treasure games in that Art auction. So i had 3 bottles of champagne with me n they went WOOOSH! Disappeared, like an act of magic. All I remember is that im the proud owner of 8 paintings. Lol among them was Petter Max and another gentleman i love. They invited me for another night of crazy Jez but although i did go I didn't add to that collection. Do i regret it? The first one no the second night? Yes omg YES!! I saw 5 of the paintings offered to me at the time weren't over the 5k mark. I saw them in this gallery over 15k ouch! I wanted to cry but a las Jez D Wild will one day find herself in another one of these auctions. Back at the gallery; I loved the displays n how they setup the art Exhibit. They had a charming greeter n one of the main most seen paintings dead center. Lady liberty. I love what he did in order to get the fund needed to save the Statue. It's what made me love his art more. Towards the left they had their painting framing counters, consultations n my favorite part, the Bar! Lol i only had a cup of wine to spice up my "inspiration" lol oh it work beautifully! I seriously felt the vibe with the groovy music playing and the beautiful art. I saw the ones i own at x2-x3 times what i payed for my collection. I fought temptation head on! I seriously wanted to walk away with 3 but even with the 12 month pay plan it would hurt my shenanigans money. Another time it's the best advice i got for myself. I think i would've walked out with a print or poster if they had it for sale. I didn't see them n my anemia was kicking my butt so I forgot to ask. I really loved my visit. The staff is kind and professional. Well verse in the craft n if u checkin through the app they give you a voucher for a free consultation on framing your art to. I would definitely come back for future exhibitions. The smell of oils n thinners really made me miss my days as a student of the arts. I think its time for me to return to my craft. Thank you so much for waking my muse up. Blessings to everybody n have a wonderful night!
