Had a lot of fun running through Building 63’s Wax Museum. It was the first time I had visited one of the wax houses, so I was kind of fascinated to see what they looked like. A lot of the statues were surprisingly realistic! I was also startled to find that it had a lot of artifacts attached, like signed guitars and CDs from famous musicians and bands; John Wayne’s hat; etc.
The building also offers a Horror Chamber with creepy and spooky sights! 🙂 Oh, and there is a stand that let’s you make a WAX copy of your own hand! Then you can color it after it is done! It was a really fun place to wander through, I’d definitely recommend it to parents with kids or to couples. You can take pictures with the famous people!!

There are also some shuttle buses accessible from the subway stations. I was a good distance from the place, so I took a taxi. Tons of taxis sit and wait to pick you up there too.
