The back clothing section is overpriced and not very well curated... quality is not cohesive throughout, with some very cheap feeling items being priced high just like more expensive feeling items. I've stopped in relatively often over the years as I am in the area but have never once found anything to purchase.

The store has so many cool and interesting little things, like beaded keychains, hair accessories, candles, jewelry, greeting cards and decor. Some of it is vintage and some is locally hand made. The back of the store is the thrift clothing section. Everything looks to be in excellent shape. There's also records, shoes and purses. I saw a Dior coat, and some items by Burberry and by Alexander McQueen. They are selective about their selection of items they accept. There isn't any of that awful stuffy smell. It feels and looks like everything is brand new. It's easy to look and touch things without the fear of everything falling. This store isn't stuffed at all. I can't wait to return and see what else they have.

The decor literally guides you to the shop. The employees were so kind. This is a small business worth supporting! There is so much charm and personality in this little shop, it feels like you're transported to another time. I bought a heart-shaped, bronze styled door-key that's actually a bottle opener for $5. It was worth it! They have a fridge with drinks avalible to purchase as well if you get parched :) Definitely worth visiting!

This place is freakin' cool!…read more I was at Factory Square for an event and stubbed upon this spooky gem. It was a self-guided walk through (and some merchandise like books) of unusual, haunted, and fantasy. The exhibit had cool effects and was very impressive experience. I recognized displays like Alice in Wonderland. There were something that were for purchase like books, novelty items, and etc. I didn't notice the prices at all, but the lady that welcomed us into the shop was very nice. I was telling friends and family all about the Curioporium and that it's a must visit.

Curoporium is a curiosity shop that opened in Hartford, Connecticut in September 2018. It was…read morefounded by entrepreneur Nathan Nunez. Although raised Catholic, Nunez was interested in the mysticism aspect of other religions, such as Buddhism, Wicca, Paganism, etc. He had an idea to open a curiosity shop where he could give customers an interactive and immersive haunted "shop-sperience". Opening at a mixed use building in the Parkville section of Hartford, Curioporium became host to a variety of special events, such as musical performances, séances, magic shows, and even photos with Krampus at Christmas time. In March 2025, Nunez relocated Curioporium to Factory Square in Southington. My older son and I recently stopped at Curioporium while we were visiting Factory Square. We were about to head to GameCraft down the hall when we suddenly noticed some spooky sounds emanating from Curioporium. We decided to enter and investigate. The shelves of the shop were lined with all sorts of creepy objects, such as occult books, shrunken heads, skulls, bugs, torture devices, laboratory equipment, magic wands, potions & elixirs, healing crystals, talismans, and lots of other creepy items. An Oddity & Curiosity Bar at the back of the space gives customers a chance to craft a very different sort of cocktail (or shall I say "wet specimen") that may contain a sheep eye, pig heart, or some other putrid ingredient. One of the creepiest items we saw on display was the "Mirror of Hades": a noisy mirror that seemed to be possessed by evil spirits. My son refused to go anywhere near it. After spending a good amount of time in the shop, my son decided that he had his fill of frightening things for quite some time and asked if we could leave. Although our visit was brief, there's a very good chance that I'll be making a solo return trip so I can explore Curioporium and all that it has to offer in greater detail.

Personally, I go here to purchase my jewelry. They have a large variety of styles and prices. My go to is usually sea glass but I've been branching outl My husband has even begun buying my gifts here. After the first time he told me how impressed he was with the shop which says a lot because he hates shopping in general. Customer service only adds to the experience. If you do not see what you are looking for, or are unable to make a choice, assistance is offered without pressure. Definitely worth the trip.

Either way, the shop is filled to the brim with trinkets--mostly costume jewelry. I found it a bit overwhelming at first, but kudos to Patti for keeping everything meticulously organized. You could easily spend hours here and still not see it all. Just keep in mind that it's heavy on costume jewelry and lighter on true antiques.

There is a section with gifts for children, a selection of fabulous music, and a unique array of handmade jewelry. What I liked most is that some things benefited a group or a cause if purchased.
