The Libby Museum in Wolfeboro is a museum of natural history that has been around for more than 100 years. It somehow seems even creepier when you consider that everything in the museum was from the private collection of a dentist named Henry Libby.

Some of the exhibits might give you quite the fright. The museum is home to a stuffed polar bear, black bear, coyote and more.

It also has some creepy artifacts like the skeleton of the last rattlesnake on Rattlesnake Island in Lake Winnipesaukee. There's even a pair of mummy hands in the collection!
