North Carolina has lots of woods, and is home to plenty of furry creatures. But is it home to the most mysterious creature of them all: Bigfoot?
Stephen Barcelo says it is. Barcelo is a cryptozoologist, and he's compiled his information at one of the strangest (and most fun) places you can visit in North Carolina. Located in Littleton, the Cryptozoology & Paranormal Museum will educate you all about Bigfoot and ghosts. There are all sort of artifacts at the museum including casts of Bigfoot prints (many found by Barcelo himself), UFO photos, ghost hunting equipment, and a haunted doll that allegedly moves.
You can hear all sorts of stories about aliens, ghosts, and of course, the legend himself, Bigfoot, at the Cryptozoology & Paranormal Museum. You'll also learn a lot about the history of Littleton and North Carolina in general. Basically, it's a win-win of a stop.
Editor's Note: The Cryptozoology & Paranormal Museum has moved to 300 N. Main St in Littleton, North Carolina.
The entrance to the Cryptozoology and Paranormal Museum almost looks like a normal North Carolina home...minus those Bigfoot shadows along the house.
Inside, you'll see casts of Bigfoot prints. Just look at how massive those feet are!
Seriously, you'll see a lot of Bigfoot feet.
A lot of the fossils are allegedly real, but don't worry – this Fiji mermaid is fake.
But if you're more into the paranormal, you're in luck: all sorts of ghost hunting equipment is on display here.
There are other ghostly items to see and admire, too, like this Ouija board, or spectral photos, or an actual haunted doll that's rumored to move around (yikes).
They say this area has many, many Bigfoot sightings – maybe this museum will make you a believer.
So if you're looking for strange, it's hard to find a place in North Carolina that exemplifies that more than the Cryptozoology & Paranormal Museum. You'll be a Bigfoot believer in no time. Check out more strange North Carolina places here.
