Are you fascinated by all things weird? If so, you’re sure to love the following hidden gem in Maryland. This gloomy collection of curiosities has been passed around the United States over the years, and now, it hides in a Baltimore record store. Read on for the details and consider seeing this free attraction for yourself. There’s nothing else quite like it in the Old Line State.
You'll find Protean Books & Records along Leadenhall Street in Baltimore, Maryland.
Dr. Augustus Gloom started this collection in the 1950s, as he was fascinated by all things strange and unusual. It began in Indiana, and moved around the United States as others took over.
The collection is free to tour but be sure to let a store employee know that you're stepping into the crypt. They'll need to turn on special lights to highlight the displays.
