Kentucky Legends

The Bluegrass State is no stranger to the weird and unusual.  From the haunted stories and paranormal tours at Waverly Hills Sanatorium to the legend of the Hopkinsville Goblins, there's no shortage of weirdness from Kentucky.  And that's not a bad thing, we love the strange and unusual here.  One Kentucky museum highlights all of the Kentucky weirdness that we can't seem to get enough of.

The International Paranormal Museum and Research Center

Located in Somerset, Kentucky sits a museum that is rather unassuming when you first look at it.  The International Paranormal Museum and Research Center is actually located in a basement, but don't let its location fool you, this museum is full of unique items celebrating all things paranormal.

Here is what the Somerset Pulaski Chamber of Commerce says about the unique museum:

A museum space and research center dedicated to Ghosts, Bigfoot, Aliens, Psychics, and anything that goes bump in the night! Stop by and see us!

In the lower level of the Carnegie Community Arts Center lies The International Paranormal Museum and Research Center. We are an organization dedicated to all aspects of the paranormal, and have been investigating phenomena across the country and all over the world for almost 15 years! We’ve collected artifacts and unique items in our travels, and showcase them here, as well as rotating artifacts on loan from other’s collections! We also have an extensive library for you to browse while you are here, with books covering subjects of all things unusual.

Now this sounds like my kinda museum! You can see a video of the museum to get a taste of what it has in store, below.
