- Amanda EEarlsboro, Oklahoma4 contributionsOkay..We bought the package so that we could go to all the attractions. It was okay. After going through the mirror maze we exited thought the handicapped door because we had our grandpa with a walker. We were yelled at by a staff member because we didn’t go the correct way. We didn’t know where to go after exiting because there is nothing that tells you. Most of the staff was friendly except the one guy. Mirror maze is not worth the money if you do not buy the package.Visited December 2022Traveled with familyWritten December 27, 2022
- Passport78079510 contributionsGreat time at the Wax Museum!This museum is amazing! It's full of very life-like figures of celebrities, and it also has props you can wear/hold for getting fun photos! It also has little signs that have short bios/fun facts of each celebrity. It's interesting to note the height difference between the figures, which I would never have observed (other than by meeting the celebrity in person). One tip: go for the package deal which gives you access to the maze, mini-golf, and two other adjacent attractions for not much more $ than the cost of the museum, and plan for a half-day.Visited March 2023Written March 10, 2023
- Tammy M1 contributionNot worth the moneyIt was fun, but alot of the props need to be replaced and some weren't even there, so that was a bit disappointing!! It was over 100 bucks for three of us to get in and that was a bit much. Some of the wax stars were awesome and some didn't even resemble the star so we had to look at the names to even know who they were suppose to be.Visited June 2023Traveled with familyWritten June 2, 2023
- Kamber E9 contributionsGreat fun for everyone!My family loved the wax museum! I have a 5 and 2 year old so they don’t know a lot of Hollywood stars, but this kept their interest. The museum has props set up with some of the figures and that made the experience even better. The workers were funny and kind, will definitely be back!Visited July 2023Traveled with familyWritten July 11, 2023
- Jessica T10 contributionsLittle Pricey, but Better Than Other Places in the AreaThe first thing I'd like to note is that for the price, I thought it would have some more figures. My boyfriend was hoping they would have some Presidents, but there were none, just famous people from music and movies basically. They really didn't have any of my favorite people either unfortunately, but they do have modern people and people from farther back, so I would say this place is good for all ages. We also really enjoyed how each set of people got rooms that were themed to be like the movie they were in/stage they were on, etc. so it really added to the atmosphere. The included props for photo-taking was also nice as well so we were able to get some pretty cool pictures! We also asked a staff member if the figures were accurate height-wise, and we were told that they are accurate within 1 inch. Seeing how tall/short some of these people were was quite fascinating!Visited August 2023Written August 22, 2023
- Allen HuffmanDes Moines, Iowa7 contributionsModern wax museums are a very different experience.The last time I visited a was museum was probably 1994 in Dallas. They have changed quite a bit. Instead of displays behind rails, these exhibits are on the floor with you. You can pose next to many of them for photos. Many displays have props available so you can put on a red robe to lay in bed next to Hugh Hefner, or hold a prop axe to pose next to an 80s horror movie icon. Everything was nice and clean, and well maintained. It was not at all the “well, while we are in the area, might as well” experience I was expecting. Sadly, the older I get, the less of the figures I recognize ;-)Visited May 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten August 23, 2023
- tinaandvinceb69 contributionsFinally a wax museum children will enjoy!My husband and I always go to wac museums. When our daughters were growing up they never wanted to go. I wish this one had been around then. This one is awesome. They have props you can add to take pictures with. A family in front of us had 3 kids and they we’re having a blast. It was a great time and highly recommend!Visited August 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten September 1, 2023
- alwayswants2travelChicago, Illinois28 contributionsNot bad but not greatThis was our first visit to this wax museum. We felt some of the figures looked a lot like the actual people but some were very off in our opinion. We thought it was a bit pricey for what it was. Not bad just not all that great. If we come back to visit we’re going to skip this attraction.Visited September 2023Traveled with familyWritten September 5, 2023
- Kevin P3 contributionsPhenomenal MuseumThis attraction is really amazing! I loved every moment of this museum! So many of the figures looked like the younger selves of the actors or icons. Except for Keanu Reeves they did his John Wick looks.Visited September 2023Traveled with familyWritten September 18, 2023
- JonInIndy389 contributionsFun Photo OpsThe ticket for the wax museum was a part of the Five'r package when purchasing tickets for Aquarium at the Boardwalk (it allowed us to do 3 of 4 other activities besides the aquarium.) We were able to go to the aquarium and then drive a few blocks down the road to do the 3 other activities we wanted to do as they were all next to each other. Really not too different from other wax museums I've been to before, our family had a lot of fun. During the self guided tour, there were several exhibits where props could be used for photos. There are many figures from the past and the present. The visit was a fun way to spend about 45 min. to an hour.Visited October 2023Traveled with familyWritten October 30, 2023

This was unexpectedly and by far the most fun we had while in Branson. The props and photo ops were so cool!! The staff was wonderfuland helpful, especially since our ticket broker forgot to email me the 5 admission tickets we purchased in advance. I would recommend it as a must do!
