"Space Oddities, Humboldt Park. Outsider art, mystical treasures, curious specimen and oddities from the far corners of the globe. Tarot card readings too! This little gem of a shop also hosts regular gatherings celebrating the weird, the wild and the decidedly untraditional. Open minds and hearts only, no bad vibes allowed."

Very fun, quirky bookstore. I first went for their St Lucia's Day Winter Party and really enjoyed meeting new people and checking out their art and books, I look forward to seeing what kinds of events they'll have in the future.

Love this place! Dog friendly! Super neat jewelry at fair prices. Got the cutest necklace and earrings the other day.

Best smelling store I've ever been too! It is therapy just being in this store. I live walking through and just smelling candles and incense. Great local zines, and art, pretty rocks, and just wonderful delights. I can't imagine a person exists who couldn't spend hours in this store discovering treasures

i LOVE Space Oddities - I've been going there for years. the owner is super nice, and they have so much cool stuff that I pretty much never walk out empty handed. plus they support local artists! they're one of the places that I have to stop every time I'm in the area, I highly recommend checking them out.

I really like this store! The items were just up my alley and loved the overall vibe. Parking was very easy to find. I am giving it 3 stars because of the service. There was only 1 staff member member there who was helping a very indecisive young lady. I had to wait over 20 mins to check out while the staff member helped the young lady find items and check out. Even at the checkout counter, the indecisive lady kept going back for different items. I only had 1 item and the staff member knew I was waiting to check out. I understand that small businesses require some TLC when it comes to staff and wait times and am usually very patient, however, as there was no AC and I only had 1 item, I felt like I could've been checked out in a few seconds, while the indecisive lady continued to browse. Unfortunately, they are closing at the end of the month. I hope to make it back before they do!

The store has books, cards, and what looks like occult paraphenilia ,- a little of everything. The owners plus staff seem helpful and friendly. I was hoping that there would be some sci fi stuff there but it was mostly items relating to magic. If you like magic and paganism you should like this place. Very colorful and unique looking. Unfortunately I hear the store is closed now, but they will be doing a pop-up on n Pilsen.

My girlfriend and I went to this store on a wim looking for some horror themed merch as this store was listed as that on yelp. I understood that it was more of a witchcraft vibe once we got in and was even more excited because my girlfriend and I love that type of thing. The lady working there was very nice and knowledgeable on everything in the store and really seemed to love what she does which helped us find some Tarot decks that fit us well.

Amazingly curated bookstore with a great selection of tarot decks, local art, and jewelry. Very friendly and helpful owner. A must-see in Humboldt Park - I tell all friends visiting Chicago to check out this place!
