Liberace Museum to close – 5 wierdest museums you can still visit
The museum dedicated to all-things Liberace (candelabras and outrageous outfits) is coming to an end.
After opening in 1979, the museum houses all of his famous posessions, including his flamboyant wardrobe like his “rhinestone-lined, full-length Black Diamond Mink cape and a 200-pound “King Neptune” costume, along with the world-famous red, white and blue hot pants suit.”
Fear not! There are still some amazing and unique museums out there, like these five:
5. Leila’s Hair Museum (Independence, MO) – Among the questions answered here are (1) who is Leila and (2) whose hair is being saved? This place also serves as the “national headquarters for the Victorian Hairwork Society.” So, two for the price on one.
4. Spam Museum (Austin, MN) – Dedicated to all things Spam-related. Includes “16,500 square feet of SPAM® artifacts, history and fun,” and its FREE! Its also fun to say… Spam Museum.
3. Museum of Toilets (New Delhi, India) – Ever wondered about the evolution of toilets? Then you’re in luck!
2. Meguro Parasitological Museum, (Japan) – Over 300 specimens are showcased at this museum for those who like to learn more about blood-sucking parasites. No Vampires here, though.
1. Torture Museum (Netherlands) – For the sadist in you, check out this archive of some of the most outrageous instruments of torture ever. Curious, though, if the macarena is continually played here?
