Very well maintained. You can spend 3-4 hrs here. 7D moving theater is nothing but a interactive game, but you will enjoy it. Wax Museum was surprisingly very nice. Enjoyed our Saturday here..

We had a great time! It's a bit pricey and I didn't like all the things they wanted you to pay for additional inside the exhibits. (Think carnival games.) However, the gift shop was very reasonable, as far as those kinds of shops go, and we did spend a few hours overall. I would recommend this place.

I have always been a fan of ripleys. Watching it growing up to collecting books when i was younger. Took my wife and kids and they had a blast. Very cool stuff to do and look at. Prices were reasonable. Was expecting to stay only about 2 hours. But ended up staying longer than expected because of all the stuff there was to do. I highly recommend this place. And staff was nice as well. Looking forward to going to another location in the future to see what the others have in store.

Did the wax museum and the 7D. 7D was fun. Wax museum was good too. The wax museum of fear was a bit scarry though. But overall enjoyed the time there with friends. One should also take a look at the exhibits outside esp the crochet. Amazing work!

I never thought I would enjoy visiting the wax museum...I was wrong! It was really cool and educational. A little pricey on some things but for a tourist looking for something to do or somewhere to take kids of any age it was worth it.

This is the second time I've been here and was just as enjoyable as when I visited as a kid. Love the multiple options available and the price is reasonable. If you are looking for a discount you can check on GroupMe for the initial entry and then it's $5 each person for additional entries.

Awsome

The wax museum is worth a visit. They have a couple of attractions, you have to purchase different tickets for each or as a combo. Choose what all you want to visit depending on your type of group: they have a wonderful mirror maze, laser grid, souvenir shop, gaming station etc. The wax museum alone takes about 2 hrs. A good place to visit with family and friends.

Loved the mirror maze. For those who are pregnant or have health issues you may want to pass on the theater and laser race. Ripleys believe it or not was awesome and the wax museum was totally awesome. The wax museum had wax figures of the presidents and even had a nativity and crucifixion set up.

This is a fun place with 5 different exhibits or experiences. My kids had lot of fun and parents enjoyed all the 5 different experiences. Thanks to all employees at the location.
I experienced an uncomfortable situation at the 7D theater. It is March 10th, 2020 and time is 5:35 PM. We purchased 6 tickets. We can watch 2 movies, each 5 minute duration. All 6 of us watched the 1st movie. For the 2nd movie, two of us went. I had 3 tickets with me. There was no one behind us. I scanned two tickets. The lady at the theater probably wasn t paying attention. She asked me to scan the ticket. I said I scanned two tickets. She said assertively this time No, You scanned only 1 ticket . I said Ma m, I scanned two tickets but I didn t want to hold up the movie, so I gave my ticket again to scan. After the show. I went and spoke to
a supervisor. My daughter confirmed too that she noticed me scanning two tickets. The supervisor was like she has to make sure that you scanned two tickets, we tell them to. A lot of customers lie . I said well, we trusted you and spent the money you asked us to pay to visit you guys. If you think a lot of customers would lie about watching a 5-min movie, I cannot believe it . Also, they ve no way to confirm that I scanned twice. If the employees are forcing customers (because they think a lot of customers lie), then they should ve a proper mechanism to verify that. This is the year, 2020. We re not in 1975.

An interesting experience. Took my kid there for her birthday. Use parental caution as some of the displays are too much for young children. Otherwise a very unusual and entertaining place to visit.

Ripley's was fun and worth the money. Wax museum was disappointing and a waste of money. The comparison is this...Madame Tussaud is the mother of all wax museums and Barnum and Bailey is the daddy of all circus shows. Louis Tussaud wax museum is like a flea circus.

Had a great outing with the wife. Was the first time either of us had gone. Omg the scary part scared me I was afraid someone was going to jump out at me. Had a blast with the wife. Can't wait to go again.

Great tourist attraction with 5 major exhibits including the mirror maze, wax museum, oddities museum, laser challenge (think 007), and an interactive shooting gallery in which the chairs move with the on screen play and laser guns (think interactive, theater arcade game). Best of all, the military discount is AMAZING!

I thought pets would be free but they still charged me $20 for my tarantula even though I had already purchased me and the family season passes. I hope they find my tarantula, his name is thugfang if anyone sees him.

They have 5 activities. Definitely worth buying the bundle deal.

The maze, wax museum, oddatoriam, and the 5D interactive video was alot of fun.
The lazer thing was really lame though.

Spent about 3 hours doing all the different things. We all had a great time!

Found this by accident while waisting time between appointments. Had a fantstic time. When you get to the section that warns may be too scary for some, they mean it. Looking forward to going back.

Didn't know Groupon only paid for 1 side.

Didn't know Groupon only paid for 1 side.
Then we paid $5 each for mirror maze (10 min event). The cashier could have told us the attractions and cost so we could have made better selection.

The 3 attraction combo is the sweet spot. Use it to go into the Wax Sculpture Exhibition which is really big, the mirror maze which is super fun and the Oddotorium which is the Ripley's staple. The lazer challenge and the 7d movies are great also but both are really short. The lazer challenge is finished in less than 2 mins and the 7d movie is fun (shooting zombies) but is only 5 mins. Really fun in general!!

Great experience! The Ripley's museum was a huge hit with my 7yo, who loved all the strange and wonderful exhibits. The wax museum was also fascinating. Everyone loved picking out candy from the large selection in the gift shop.

Pretty good it was very interesting with all the wax figures that they had their took her 14 year old granddaughter there she actually really loved it the bathrooms were clean and the store where you can get souvenirs and stuff was really stocked and had a lot of variety.

Amazing

I gave them a three star because of the service and prices. Honestly, I was shocked to find out what it would cost to see all of their attractions for a family of five. I'm sure they are great, but we left and went to the Cheesecake Factory and the Science Museum in Fort Worth, had a day of fun and saved a bunch of money. The service was lackluster with little interaction and the team seemed distracted with each other. The food cart was expensive and the sandwiches, which we received a refund, were wet. I will consider going back by myself to see if the attractions are as good as I remembered in years past (I remember them being quite good). When I do I will update my review.
