You can look all year and never find a quirkier or more fascinating place. Its as much a museum as it is a store. Beth, the owner, and the rest of the staff really make the experience come alive! Cant say enough about this awesome, odd little venue. Quick tip...its actually disguised as a steak/sub shop! Oh, and dont forget to check out the creepy garden in the back!
Absolutely unique. Fine people
They have plenty of cool stuff to view and buy. From artwork to historical items. The owners and employees are very friendly and very knowledgeable.
Most friendly staff of any shop Ive ever been. Each visit I not only pick up something cool for my home, but I also get a fun story to go with it. Every time I run into new and exciting things to look at. The store owner is the coolest!
Another great visit to my favorite oddity shop! The atmosphere is just as fun and bustling, the maxamist layout and cool art and all the fun interesting people that wander thru, not to mention seeing Shop Cat again, it was a blast! Always highly recommend this place to any fellow oddballs and readers, artists, performers, or curious eyes! Depsite the nature of the items for sale, the owners are full of life to make up for all the dead things decorating the walls, and will leave you feeling excited and happy to come again! I always love to pay a visit, whether or not Im buying something the experience is always the best!
My Favorite Arden Fair Shirt by far! Thanks guys!!
Cute store. Interesting and odd finds.
Very nice and knowledgeable people. Will be making a return visit soon!
Such a fun little place filled with all kinds of weird and creepy stuff! The gentleman working was the book shop owner and he was very informative and helpful! We will for sure be returning!
This place has the most unusual, exotic items. Owners are very friendly and knowledgable. Highly recommend!
Incredible time as always! The owners are so friendly and you never know whos going to walk through the door. A trip here is always an experience. They have some of the most unusual, interesting, morbid, rare, and fascinating items I have ever seen. Every inch of the store has a different item for your eyes to enjoy. Definitely give yourself plenty of time to see all they have to offer!!
This is one of the most absolute coolest places to visit and purchase unique gifts. Very eclectic one of a kind items you will never find anywhere else. The owners are lovely wonderful people and very welcoming. This is definitely a place to stop and support local business.
Awesome little shop, something for everyone, dont miss the bookstore nestled within!
Ive been to oddities/curiosities shops across the country and have never been to one with owners as passionate and hospitable as Oddporium. Most shops have similar goods (taxidermy, articulations, medical quack devices, morbid artifacts, etc.), but the passion that these guys show for their products is what sets Oddporium apart. If I ever make it back to Wilmington, it will undoubtedly be a place I visit again!
This place was amazing to visit and had a little something to interest anyone who likes things a little left of stereotypical. They had letters from serial killers on display, among some amazing art from local artists! Theres also a lot of beautifully crafted jewelry, and tons upon tons of antique/vintage wares. Most of it is for sale, as far as I could tell. It was a truly wonderful experience and I cannot wait to visit again!
One of the best places to visit in all of the Delaware Valley. From oddities to the best book store around you cannot go wrong with the Oddporium.
I really love this lil shop and the people who own it are just the most wonderful people
Awesome place alot of great stuff
I LOVE THIS PLACE! Not only are the people who own it fun and cool, but their collection is amazing. Stop here if you are a little bit curious! Buy some stuff, so they can stay in business for a long time! We have enough stores with cookie cutter decor, they have the stuff that will make your home actually interesting.
Psst..you...yeah, you...do you love the odd and unusual? Tired of the same lame tourist traps? Visit the oddporium! Its a humble location trying their very best to preserve our odd wacky and weird history. Places like this one are special and need our help to keep America weird. Stop by and marvel at the small but impressive collection. Stay for great conversation. But dont forget to donate to help them keep doing what they do best..being delightfully and charmingly weird 💗
Woot Woot ❤️
Im not really sure how to review this store. Its just something you simply have to visit to understand. The owners are wonderful! Always personable, always recognize my face (Ive only been there 3 times), have all sorts of trinkets and new age/paranormal stuff. I believe the store is in an old morticians house? Beth will take the time and show you around the store giving you a full view of their oddities and curios giving You the option to get a closer look, open most of the display cases and explore. Great prices and selection thats always changing. See something you want? Better buy it fast because that next time you come in it might be gone! This is a hidden gem in Delaware.
This place is fun. Lots of stuff to look at and the owner (?) was truly excited to share all the interesting stuff with lots of stories to go along. Definitely stop in and check it out. We spent about 30- 45min there.
If you like the strange and unusual this is the place for you. The staff is fun and quirky just my kind of people.
Awesome store wicked stuff.Must go and check it out.Will go back again for sure.
Great people and a great place with an eclectic mix of the unusual and bizarre. I was impressed with the variety of items. You should definitely make the trip to Arden and check it out.
Such an amazing place!! The owners are so sweet and have an amazing collection of eclectic and strange things for everyone. If you’re in the area I highly recommend stopping by!!
I love this place, and youll love it too! You must go! Its a magnificent and exquisite shop.... Must see.! Trust me.The owner Ken is awesome and so is his wife Beth, very down to earth, mellow and awesome groovy couple.Trust me you will love atmosphere.Must Go See It For Yourself, You Wont Regret it....! 😘💙
The owners are so nice and helpful! They have great knowledge on their pieces, and of the Delaware area, which is important for a lot of their local items and data. If youre looking for an odd gift, or if youre a seasoned collector, this is a great place to go!
This place is super awesome! I love it here and recommend to so many people to at least go once. They have so many odds and ends, and totally fill your creepy factor. The owners are awesome relatable people and love to tell great stories about their items and travels. Very very cool. The store is a bit tucked away but once you go there youll always notice it. Never a dull moment when I visit!
I was lucky enough to find this little jewel during a recent visit to Wilmington, my childhood town, from Charlotte, North Carolina. The Oddporium is ran by Beth and Ken, both of them are incredibly nice and very interesting people.To say the Oddporium has character would be a vast understatement. This store is alive. Everything on display, and even the building itself, has a story behind it and a reason its there.The pieces can be slightly macabre, bizarre, or just outright odd but its a treat to see, touch, or even buy something youll most likely never see again.The store is a living portrait of human life; celebrating both life and death.I absolutely loved it.
Neat stuff there. If youre into historical artifacts, creepy artwork, or unique gifts, you have got to check out this place. Owners are very cool/friendly people.
Awesome place and even awesomer people! Ken and Beth are super cool!
Cool stuff and friendly people
If you are looking for a 2 headed pig fetus for inspiration to help create your next piece of work, or are in search of disturbing medical equipment that could possible be used as a torture device, or a beautiful yet disturbing painting for your living room than this is your place. They have a great selection of local artist paintings, sculptures, jewelry and other one of a kind piece that you wont find anywhere else. It is my favorite place to get gifts for my friend who enjoy the abstract, occult or just have a distinct taste. When you go make sure you give yourself a good bit of time, because they have such interesting items you will lose yourself. Beth and Ken are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about all the items they sell, they even create some items themselves.
A wonderful store that has almost anything, and BOOKS! What more could anyone ask for!
Owners are so rad and know the history of all the stuff in the shop. If you have any questions about anything weird they are the people to ask. The shop is full of cool stuff. I have gotten some badass animal skelton articulations from here. This is the only place my wife and daughter shop for presents for me!!!
The oddporium basically gave me the courage to be myself. Not only that, but beth is such a sweet person, and makes you feel welcomed whenever. I allways will have an extra place in my heart for the oddporium. If i could give more than 5 stars, i would. I HIGHLY reccomend!!!!!!
The sheer amount of eclectic items is mind bogling, if you live in Delaware its a place you have to stop by and visit. Great details on all items.
The Oddporium is the GREATEST oddities store I have ever been to. Everyone needs to go check this amazing place out!
Very cool place. Wonderful owner.
What a fascinating shop! The owner has some great stories to share and plenty of artifacts to satisfy your creepy intrigue.
