Marsh's Free Museum

Half souvenir shop and half sideshow, the 'museum' features Weekly World News stars like Jake the Alligator Boy (a wonder of taxidermy that appears to be half-alligator, half-human and now nearly fossilized with age), an Amazon shrunken head and a one-eyed lamb. If you love kitsch, don't miss this place. Bring change for the antique circus peep-show machines.
