Paranormal Books and Curiosities

This is a card from the book/gift store - check it out

You don't necessarily have to believe in ghosts to love this place in Asbury Park NJ!  It is a such a treasure with historical facts about New Jersey and related ghost stories that teens, tweens and adults will be amazed!  The museum consists of unique artifacts, chilling stories and is even haunted by a real ghost named Jeremy.  The owner of the store has been collecting all of these cool "curiousities" for years and is always adding something new to the exhibit. If you want even more info on Jeremy you can do the Asbury Parks Ghost and Legends Downtown Tour, which I highly recommend (for mature tweens/teens and their parents).  I went on it the other night while visiting friends in NJ.  Our tour guide was outstanding and actually works on the investigative team that searches haunted places -  Make the time to eat before the tour which was 90 minutes long.  There are a lot of places to choose from. We got great pizza from Crust and Crumble.  Also, make sure to hit the gift shop which has a lot of things that you cannot get anywhere else.  Who knew they made werewolf mints!!  There was a guy in front of us who was buying a ton of Asbury Park - back from the Dead t-shirts, they will have to order more.  The Paranormal Books and Curiosities Museum and Ghost Tour get a solid 5 stars.
