Obscura Day 2015

If you're not familiar with the website Atlas Obscura, well shame on you. Atlas Obscura captures the worlds oddest and most unusual places and things. You really should be checking in weekly.

On May 30th, the website is promoting Obscura Day. "More than 150 events in 39 states and 25 countries, all on a single day, and all designed to celebrate the world's most curious and awe-inspiring places."

Clear your calendar, folks.  Not all of the sites are spooky in nature, but many of them are and you're not going to want to miss out -especially if you live near an event! Private tours and special activities are the features of the day.

Here are a few of my favorites:

The Bone Room, Albany, CA

Hartsdale Pet Cemetery, Hartsdale, NY

Dapper Cadaver, Sun Valley, CA

Elkin Cabinet of Curiosity, Elkin, NC

Rare and Occult Books at the Philadelphia Athenaeum

Really, there are just too many wonderful events to post. Search for events near you here.  Even if you can't make an event on May 30th, many of these sites are open year round.
