The Museum Of Death In Southern California Is Not For The Faint Of Heart

There’s an unusual destination hiding in Southern California that just might make your skin crawl — it’s an entire museum dedicated to death. Whether you’re up for exploring this museum in person or you’re just curious about what lurks inside, you can take a digital tour of this creepy spot in SoCal to get a feel for the horrors captured at the Museum of Death.

Nothing quite prepares you for a tour at the Museum of Death.

When you arrive, the first thing you'll notice is the giant skull awaiting you at the entrance. This should be your first clue that this isn't going to be a traditional museum experience.

The entrance fee to this unique museum is $15 person. You'll even get a fancy ticket with yet another skull to remind you of what you're about to see.

Before you head into the museum, you'll be greeted by this unexpected disclaimer. You know the place must be pretty disturbing if it has to post a warning sign.

Think you're ready? Here's a little sample of what you can expect at the Museum of Death.

A display of Mortician's instruments. And yes, these are the real thing that were used on actual bodies.

You'll see a men's suit hanging. But this isn't any ordinary suit. This is a funeral suit creatively designed to easily dress the deceased.

You'll walk through a room filled with dead animals that have been stuffed at the taxidermist.

In another room you'll find jars of teeth. Human teeth. I told you this place was disturbing.

And of course you will find rows of skulls to view along with stories about who they belong to. Feeling unsettled yet?

And last but not least there's the morbid artwork on display featuring actual organs that have been preserved and flattened and framed. Could things get any more disturbing? I think not.

If you made it this far, perhaps you'll want a memento to take home. Make sure to stop at the gift shop after the tour to buy something to remind you of this bizarre-o experience that may end up giving you nightmares.
