If you’re kind of person who is never caught dead without their Tardis, there’s a marvelous attraction in Camby, Indiana that you’ve got to check out ASAP. This Doctor Who-themed store just southwest of Indianapolis is heaven on earth for any lover of British sci-fi.
You won’t be able to help but geek out at this unique spot. Scroll on for more details.
Who North America is the largest American retailer of merchandise themed after the world's longest-running science fiction TV show, Doctor Who. Part shop and part museum, this amazing attraction celebrates one of the best British television shows right in our own backyard.
The idea for the shop began in 1998 when the owner began collecting merchandise from the UK. Stores in America only sold Star Wars and Star Trek fandom at the time. In 2016, the business purchased a property and opened its own brick and mortar store after operating out of a warehouse for many years.
With the relaunch of the series in 2005, tons of new merchandise was released quickly, and this Doctor Who-themed store keeps up with everything old and new. You'll find everything from hats, shirts, and tote bags to jewelry, socks, mugs, costumes, lanyards, board games, posters, books, figurines, and much more.
Free for all who visit this giant shop is the Doctor Who museum, which is located within the store. There are always several pieces from the show on display such as props and costume pieces.
Those who live too far away or who just can't make it in as often as they like will enjoy the online store. There you will find just as much merchandise to make your room (or entire house) Doctor Who-themed.
True fans of this timeless show will appreciate a journey to this amazing store. It is totally worth a trip from any part of the state, and since it's near Indy, there are many other fun things you can find to do on the same excursion.
This Doctor Who-themed store also sells merchandise for other fandom online including Avengers, Sherlock Holmes, Stargate, and Robin Hood. It's a sci-fi-lover's dream come true at this record-breaking business.
Who North America is open Mondays between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m., and Friday and Saturday between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. Get more details on its website here.
