What is it about the unusual and bizarre that people love? Is it the unknown, the mystery or just plain curiosity? I being the lover of all things bizarre and unusual had to sit down and chat with the good folks from the show Oddities on Discovery Channel.
Oddities is a show about an antique shop, but not just any antique shop! Obscura Antiques and Oddities is a place where the bizarre, old, and unusual mix under one roof. From taxidermy, to skulls, to ancient medical equipment, this one stop shop of curiosity has to be scene to believe.
Inside the doors of this peculiar shop you’ll find Evan, Mike and Ryan. Evan is the cutest of the three, she is a pint size power house of information on the old and unusual. Be careful of this little lady, she might just make you fall in love with a straightjacket!
Then there is Mike. A friendly, off beat man with a story to tell on every item in the store. This is one person that can deliver a first rate, history lesson on the weird and wild that I guarantee you have never heard before.
As for Ryan, in true mysterious fashion he eluded us the day of our visit; however we will catch up with him later on CIM.
Oddities was a thrill for team Kode and the crew of CIM. And if we had to come up with one word to describe the Obscura folks, the store and the merchandise, it would have to be, anomalous!
We suggest you check out Oddities on the Science Channel or visit Mike and Evan at their store, Obscura Antiques and Oddities. You won’t be disappointed!
