Some really cool stuff in here. And some really great gifts up front. I didn't know there was any truth to the American Horror series.

Nice little museum and shop if you want to learn a bit about voodoo history. Note that this is a very small museum and not necessarily a professional museum experience. Seems like something put together by a couple individuals that wanted to share more about the meaning behind Voodoo.

If you go in knowing what your expecting I think this is a good experience.
Amazingly interesting museum. I didn’t really know anything about voodoo culture before going in, but I left feeling like my eyes had been opened. I learned so much from the different exhibits and there is plenty of information to read and help understand it all. The museum is small, but packed with many different things.

Educational, fun, authentic layers in this one of a kind space. Lots to learn and observe and some genuinely unique objects loaded with significance. Terrific gift shop with locally made crafts. Touristy, but not in an obvious way. Singular vibe.

This is an excellent stop to learn the history of Voodoo and Hoodoo. It explains rituals, dolls, Doctors and Queens. The stories of the Voodoo influencers are enthralling. Soo many objects to look at and learn. The gift shop has books and souvenirs to take away to remember your day. Definitely worth the stop.

Such an Incredible little museum. I bought tickets on the spot, it wasn’t to busy but It’s tight quarters as you work your way through the rooms to be prepared. They have a great gift shop as you enter & exit for an whimsical needs/souvenir’s. I will definitely be back!!

Meh. It was okay. Very small and quite dark/dusty/dirty. Interesting stuff inside but the presentation is just a mess. Stuff everywhere. You bump into others. No space. Woman at the front desk was a little rude. May be just by nature, not sure. Gift shop was more gimmicky than authentic feeling. And quite expensive.
I learned a lot so I would recommend but just be prepared to not be wowed.
