The Unicorn Museum

The Unicorn Museum presents a walk through history. Designed by a noted fantasy author, this state-of-the-art 60,000 square foot museum brings the fantastical and highly implausible to life ... A fully engaging, sensory experience for intellectually undiscerning guests. Murals and realistic scenery, computer-generated visual effects, over fifty exotic animal-like replicas ...

And they've got a Basilisk Petting Zoo! How can it go wrong?

Yes, it's intended as a parody of The Creation Museum in Kentucky - but this is your chance to get a Unicorn Museum T-shirt or coffee mug. Y'know, there's likely enough material (and interest) to make a decent roadside attraction :)

Of course, they're a bit late. The American Museum of Natural History has an exhibit running through the rest of the year on mythic creatures - including the unicorn.

And there's always Otter & Morning Glory Zell's living unicorns - one even toured with Ringling Brothers / Barnum & Bailey circus.

So far, we've managed not to repeat it.
