THE HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN
WAX MUSEUM
~ Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada ~
For decades there has been a spooktacularly frightful wax museum located on Niagara Falls, Ontario's famous Clifton Hill - "Niagara's Street of Fun".
THE HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN WAX MUSEUM is one of two that were created, with the other being located in Lake George, New York (which also is still open to this day - though under much different management).
Designed to be a combination of wax museum and haunted house, the Niagara Falls location has definitely embraced the "haunt" aspect in recent years - though it is certainly still worth a visit!
Here for your enjoyment is a vintage brochure (with a cut out mask) from THE HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN WAX MUSEUM, courtesy of the personal collection of Timothy Randall.

Dedicated to preserving the history of Wax Arts, and the unique stories of all those involved in its development, WAXIPEDIA strives to be the number one source of information on the subject of Wax Museums and their role in the attractions and entertainment industries. Through the sharing of photographs, brochures, movies and stories we hope to enlighten, engage and entertain all who discover us.
As a resource, the WAXIPEDIA ARCHIVES was established in 2014 as a repository for physical examples and information pertaining to these educational goals. Consisting of thousands of items (ranging from century-and-a-half year old guidebooks to life-sized wax figures) the ARCHIVES are the backbone of WAXIPEDIA's mission and we hope to inspire future generations of artists, designers, historians and fans.
Anyone interested in donating items to the ARCHIVES is encouraged to reach out to me directly at timothywrandall@gmail.com
