"The Museum of Death is not for everyone, concerned as it is with almost every aspect of death. It will, however, appeal to those with a dark sense of humor or macabre fascinations. The building is knowingly kitsch from the outset, and almost looks like a set of a B-movie with it garish colors and cartoon-like imagery. Exhibits feature everything from serial killers and morgues to macabre art and skulls. It’s presented in an entertaining way, but death is still a weighty subject—that is, prepare yourself." - Paul Oswell
