    This is the creepiest used bookstore/headshop/insense store/hippy store ever. So I didn't realize…read morethe porn part until later. We walked in and it's laid out with insense, pro-gay stuff (which was cool), hippy/Indian fabrics etc. First thing we hear is a guy screaming and yelling in the back. We can't see him. Well, ok, the sign says there are books upstairs. Sweet. So we go up and first ting you see is a sign on one of the shelves saying that their co-op owners records were confiscated or something. I couldn't figure out what the point of the sign was. The other one was about shoplifting that rambled on and said that they have better cameras now. Ok so decided to skim the books. Really crappy selection, there is a sign for "Men's science fiction" or something which is weird. So the guy is still yelling downstairs. I decided to leave because it was just uncomfortable with guy who keeps yelling. The "cafe" area is a horder's dream. "Cafe" was blocked off. There was just crap there and appearantly they sell posters and the one featured was a backside of a woman taking off her pants. That wasn't even in good taste. I guess if you are a deprived 19 year old male you might find that hot. So there is a third floor porn shop or something Boyfriend ventured up there and told me there were old playboys, gay porn, old porn and dildos. So I don't know if you go to buy porn there or stay there and watch. Oh and porn on VHS. So I went down the stairs, the guy still yelling, I was just going to leave. There was a cute puppy that ran up to me, super fluffy and so i got to play with it and pet it. Some younger guy was moving boxes into his car and the other guy kept yelling. I gues I was just not paying attention what it was about... Soon after i left. Wow. Like i don't care that the store was headshop/porn shop but it just had a creepy vibe to it. It's like it's made for horny new agey males? Kinda sad if this is the only place for any alternative/new age stuff in Houghton. Oh and they were hiring according to their sign on the door. Maybe if they sell medical pot is how they are making their money. Because it's not based on customer service or atmosphere.

    This business is closed. Will not be reopening. Was closed by law enforcement. Also roof came down.read more
