Unfortunately the museum part has been shut down for the past 2 years (as told by the owner). They have moved all the figures into the store to accompany the storefront

Do not waste your money!!
The figures look like characters of the artists they're supposed to look like
When we got up to the counter, the kid looked so bored and could have cared less! When we left we politely told him that they weren't very good and his reply was "cool"
These are supposed to be Robert Plant and Jimmy Page
The Frank Zappa looked good but that was it
Again, don't waste your money...this seems more of a joke than a serious businessHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Erin W.Belleville, United States47117Aug 6, 2018
This place is soooooooo terrible, in a so bad it's good way.
First, it's a hair off the main strip, which is far enough off to start encountering some seedy characters.
We went as a family. The museum was locked. We had to go in a store and then they had to unlock the place, we paid, she went back to the store and locked the main door behind her from the outside. She told us we could take as long as we wanted. Did I mention we were the only tourists there? Vibe - shady.
Some of the figures are good. Some are not so good. Most are ridiculous down to the clothing. There's info on the artist and he is prolific. Boy oh boy, he is prolific. I could not get over the amount of time and work it took to put this collection together. It is imperative to understand that you see this museum for the love of kitsch.
Bringing the kids was a bad idea. They were overstimulated from the day/week anyway. They found the figures to be deeply creepy and they completely lost it when we hit the metal room. There is no sunshine puppy bypass, so they are treated to all the gore that metal had to offer. If they hadn't buried themselves, screaming in terror, in my legs and torso, I feel I would have found this room as entertaining as the others. You exit through the gift shop.
Lil bit, like one, hip hop artist displayed. I don't want to reveal who and ruin the surprise.
Three stars because I had to wonder if I was going to be pickpocketed.
Five stars for entertainment having absolutely nothing to do with the falls.
One star for the gift shop because my kids can read. Again, probably don't take your kids here.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Kasey K.Welland, ON01Jan 6, 2019
This wax museum was a waste of time and money. Most of the wax figures didn't resemble who they were supposed to be at all!
The museum had to be unlocked for us and we were the only ones in there. The museum had a very weird vibe and the store next door where you have to go to get someone to bring you into the museum is a bit of a weird vibe also.
I don't mean creepy like some museums, it wasn't good enough to even be creepy but definitely weird. The store workers did not seem to be loving having to be there which is fine but they could pretend in front of paying customers.
As for the wax figures themselves, they were very poor quality. They didn't resemble who they were portraying very well at all.
Madonna thankfully had a sign or we never would've known who she was.
David Bowie, we think, had one slightly darker eye than the other when everyone knows he's got two different colored eyes!
It was like they used one type of eyes and teeth for every figure.
Snoop Dog looked jacked compared to how he really looks. Tu Pac also was a disappointment.
The second Ozzy in there looks nothing like Ozzy.
Michael Jackson looked dead I'm sorry to say :(
and his fingers were peeling.
It was a totally underwhelming experience. We had often wanted to go in and as it wasn't busy or tourist season we decided to go. What a waste.
Don't waste your money and time on this museum the best figures they have you can see at the main entrance through the window at the front.
I didn't take pictures as I didn't know I'd be posting a review the colour if of the faces is off too.
Oh ya, Janis Joplin looks nothing like herself either.
Save your money.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Lacy H.Eustis, United States14May 12, 2019
very fun and unique place especially if youre bored of madame tussauds at every tourist destination you visit. the story behind the making of these wax figures was crazy and inspiring. all hand made! if youre a fan of any big artists from the 60s-90s youll love it!
