What a fun place to visit! The museum displays several authentic movies props, with some great photo ops. They mentioned that they offer events such a Bloody Valentine prom, contests, etc. In the future, this will be our first stop when shopping for Halloween costumes and props. read more

This is an awesome place!! So much to see! I highly recommend coming here! My kids loved it.

Went here on a Groupon ..15$ for two people!! Very cool place! My friends are going here for the "My bloody valentine costume ball". Very fun staff , so I am sure that will be a fun night. read more

This place is absolutely amazing!!! We did the guided tour with Tom Devlin and it was fantastic!!! He has so much knowledge of the film industry, mainly horror but knows the history of it! He was super fun and charismatic!!! Do not hesitate to check this place out and if you can schedule the tour with Tom! You will jot be disappointed!!! read more

I have driven by this place on my way back home to Arizona ever since the sign still said "coming soon!" This last Sunday I finally had the chance to check it out. This place is awesome! I had a lot of fun and bought some stuff from their shop. The guy that was working in there at the time was really cool. I was happy to hear that they are going to be expanding and that they have signings of horror actors and what not. Definitely check this place out if you are in the area. I can't wait to see how even more awesome this place will get read more

This was a wonderful way to break up our long drive. The employee was super nice and it was amazing seeing all the movie memorabilia. We will be back when we head that way again. read more

this place was cool... definitely worth the trip from Vegas. super neat props. friendly staff. read more

Tom Devlin's Monster Museum - freddys back!!! - Art Museums Near Me - Boulder City, Nevada

After finding this place via Groupon we were not disappointed. Do not be fooled by the looks of the building when first entering because once you get behind the doors it is a hidden gem. The museum itself is rather short, however if you value artistic ability, are a fan of classic monsters, and enjoy the idea behind monsters then this place is for you! We had the pleasure of being introduced to the creators behind the scenes and that was beyond amazing to see them while they worked. This place also does autograph signings and meet and greets with some of the legendary actors who played the monsters or infamous killers in the movies (such as Jason). Had a great time while we were there and I would recommend to anyone (however not for younger children- it can be pretty intense because the artistry of the characters is that good!) read more

This place is amazing ! A bit of a far drive but worth it. Staff is super friendly and welcoming. Great place for horror movie fans.

Such a fun place to visit. The guy behind the counter (sorry I forgot his name) took the time to talk to my husband about special effects and sculpting, which is a big hobby in our home. Neat to walk through the museum and see such classic characters. If you are in Vegas, or just passing by, definitely worth the stop! read more

It's hard to say enough good things about this place, no this institution. I have been meaning to write this review for some time as I visited back in early October. I must preface this review by saying I am a horror movie fanatic. In fact I am wearing my evil dead pajamas (which I procured in their gift shop) as I write this lol. The museum is not only an homage to cinematic monsters, it is a celebration of the dying art of practical movie effects. In the age of cgi this is a place where the sheer artistry and craftsmanship of movie effects is preserved, celebrated and hopefully passed on to younger generations. You can feel the love, passion and extreme hard work that mr. Devlin has put into every piece (yes he created almost everything you see in the museum). It's nothing short of brilliance in my eyes. The subject matter itself extends from the classic universal black and white era to the contemporary, with lots of b-movies and creatures thrown in. It's possible to walk through the entire exhibit in 10 minutes or so but that would be a disservice to the hard work and artistry behind each piece. I spent more than an hour (I actually lost track of time so who knows how long really) reading every placard and truly examining each piece. Groups of people came and went but I lingered. In fact I didn't want to leave. It was like being surrounded by all my old friends (I told you I'm a fanatic lol). I want everyone to experience this amazing exhibition. If you appreciate; horror, monsters, movies, art, craftsmanship, or any combination thereof you must visit. I would have gladly paid TRIPLE the price (and I am in no way well of with money). On top of all this the gift shop is one of a kind and I had the opportunity to meet both Mr. Devlin and his wife while I was there. They are very nice and happy to talk with you (he complemented my leather face t-shirt I wore. See fanatic lol) as long as you want. So please stop in and see it as I want to keep this little treasure around for as long as possible. Mr. Devlin, thank you again for sharing your passion and gift for the macabre with us all!!! read more

I loved It! Today was my first vist and I will be going back. The guy there was nice and helpful. If you have love for monsters, special effects and classic movies this is a must go to read more

A must see in Boulder City!! Perfect stop for horror film lovers. The family running the museum are so kind. Tom is SO talented!! such a cool stop. You don't want to miss out! read more

I saw an article for this museum and thought it would be cool for my boyfriend and I to go to for Halloween. Great little spot in Boulder City. Awesome movie props and very friendly, helpful staff. We plan to come back for the Halloween attraction. Come support small business and see classic movie stuff! read more

Stopped by on our way back to vegas and what a great place it was so nice to come to a place that has the same love for horror that I have they have awesome looking masks costumes jewelry pins purses wallets shirts and the gentlemen who was there was so sweet and cool my husband and I enjoyed talking with him you can put your name on a list so when they get in what you want they let you know and you can pick it up the best part was the tour what a awesome experience I will be back read more

Great place to check out some classic horror movie history in costume and special effects makeup!

I really loved the displays , they are all very kewl. However, $15.00 per person was an absolute ripoff. Come on man, we saw everything in 10 minutes. $5.00 would be more like it. Sorry to give 3 star reveiw. But spending $30 for me and my wife for 10 minutes of entertainment is ridiculous read more

This was such a cool place! All the staff are amazing and super nice! We will definitely be returning soon!

A great little gem in Boulder City! The museum Is fun and is a glimpse into classic American horror. The store also carries movie horror merchandise Jeff, the owner, is super nice and incredibly talented, sculpted a lot of the masks. He's very passionate and knows his stuff. You definitely got to stop by and experience it while visiting Boulder City. read more

Went to the Hoover dam and thought it was boring. On the way back I had to circle back around when I seen this monster museum which I'd never heard of! Ended up being one of my favorite places I've visited in Vegas yet. I love horror movies and there's some awesome mask and props in there! If you love horror movies you'll love this museum. Also the women working there was very nice and gave a little information before entering. Glad I stopped read more

It's a little pricey, but I enjoyed the Killer Klowns From Outerspace. Tame enough for the kiddos.

LOVED THIS PLACE !!! So many different things to look at, Tom is so talented and everyone is so nice and welcoming. A must see for horror movie lovers. read more

Great little museum for monster movie fans. Lots of cool props and costumes. And they have a nice little gift shop. So why 4 instead of 5 stars. Minor things. The price is a bit high for how small this place is. And its location in Boulder City rather than Las Vegas is a bit perplexing. The place is supposed to grow and I hope it succeeds. read more

Owner is kind of rude and the cost of admission is double what it should be... but it was something to do while we waited for our vehicle to be repaired at the auto repair shop across the street. We were able to get some neat pictures and the Zoltar machine at the entrance was fun. read more

What a waste of time. The museum was completely empty with an employee sitting at the register watching tv. We were never greeted nor was our presence ever acknowledged. Over priced basic novelties that can be found anywhere. We visited the museum with the intention of actually going through the museum. A small hand written sign with the entry price of $13 for a minuscule area. Don't waste your time. read more

Place was amazing! Nothing like this for horror or monster fans in or around the city so it's great to see something like this happen. Has a small Halloween store he's started on as well. Definitely coming back. They have shirts!! read more

Stopped in on a whim but found this to be more fun than I expected! A good history of horror movies and the actors directors and artists who bring them to life, plus many screen artifacts. Please don't touch the exhibits, but have fun with pictures and selfies! read more

Totally an amazing surprise! This museum has so many interesting masterpieces of horror. This is a must see! We were so impressed with the artistry and hard work put into this museum. There are several items from movies and a lot of information about many different horror classics and icons. read more

Super cool museum. We passed by it on a bus tour and came back the next day to check it out. Very cool monster props, even some really awesome screen used props! Lots of blurbs about the monsters and the efforts behind them all. Definitely will come back again. Totally worth the price, and there's a decent amount of merchandise to peruse! read more

I really was looking forward to the opening of this museum, but it pains me to say it was a real letdown. Even with carefully looking at every display (which are few) and reading every bit of information, walking through the museum did not take more than 10 minutes. Now, none of that would be a huge problem, because it is kind of cheesy roadside fun, except that the price is way too high for such a thing. If it cost 5 dollars, I would have given it a four star rating. For $13, it is just way too much for not a lot in return. It has just opened, so maybe in a year or so the collection will beef up a bit, maybe the displays will get a tad more polished, but as I was so bummed out the first time, I don't think I would give it a second chance. read more

This place is just so great! We have passed by it numerous times on our way in and out of Boulder City and when we found out the grandchildren were coming for spring break, I snagged a Groupon for the 6 of us. We met Tom Devlin who created many of the monsters and is so talented. They let you try on masks in the gift shop area and take pictures there but no flash photography in the actual museum. So cool, they have obscure memorabilia as well as well known movies. Who else has Killer Clowns from Outer Space in their collection!! And we aren't even sci-fi, monster movie kind of people and really loved it. read more

This places is a lot fun. Amazing replicas of all the favorites. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Museum is frequently adding new exhibits- well worth the short trip from Vegas! read more

Found this museum on the way back from Vegas. This place is little gem that everyone should stop to see!! Plus the gentleman running the shop was awesome very polite and really helpful answering our questions. Thank you Tom for your dedication to helping preserve roadside attractions hopefully will see the dinosaur museum up and running in AZ soon!! read more

Stopped by Tom Devlin's Monster Museum on our way through town. Found a nice shop and museum of T.V. and movie monster from the past to the present. Awesome museum and got to meet Tom Devlin himself. If you get a chance stop by and check out the museum, it's well worth the time. read more

Museum was fun and very cool! The reason for only 4 stars is the guy running the front desk was extremely unfriendly and kinda rude. It was almost enough to make me and my husband want to walk out but we had bought tickets online so we went through. Glad we did but first impressions mean a lot and he was extremely not delightful. read more

This was a part of my birthday celebration, and I have to say it made my birthday a blast! The props and the animatronics are creepy-good! The service is fine! The merchandise is to die for lol. Pun intended. Place is neatly kept and the information it gives on actors and where Tom Devlin are Superb. I am looking forward to coming back and buying some of the merchandise and riding on the soon to be rollercoaster ride they are building in the museum. read more

My husband and I are from Chicago and are visiting Las Vegas. We stopped in on our way back from Hoover Dam. My husband is a lifelong horror fan and we enjoyed the museum. Very friendly atmosphere. We'll definitely be back next time we're here. read more

I stopped in to see the museum while I was sightseeing in the area. The old "B" monster movies were plentiful when I was a kid. I really enjoyed seeing all of the different monsters again. Some of them gave me goose bumps as I reminisced about watching them as a kid with my friends and family. I also had the same feeling as I recalled watching Freddy, Jason and many others with the kids when they were younger. It is a very good museum and the staff was very friendly. I was excited to hear that the owner and his wife were in the Hollywood Monster Movie industry and that they had created all of the monsters that were on display there. They did a terrific job. My goosebumps were proof of that. read more

a must see for anyone who likes to watch horror movies, they are very knowledgeable and the person i spoke to is one of the hands on artists, you can tell he loves what he does, its really cool to walk through. also they have lots of t shirts, masks and costumes to buy, but the museum itself is very much worth the drive to boulder city and only $13. read more

This place is super cool! The owner is a costume and character designer. He has an abundance of movie monsters in his museum that's worth seeing. Go there! read more
