Entry No. 11 — the Austin file — filed under: witchy

Curia Arcanum's House of Curiosities

A South Congress curio shop billing itself 'The Mystically Macabre Curio for the Curious & Odd,' open only three narrow windows a week — Friday and Saturday 1–7pm, Sunday 2–6pm — with a Jules de Gaultier line over the door: 'Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.'

The move: Time a visit to its Friday–Sunday hours to dig through the mystically macabre curios, then keep walking the rest of South Congress while you're already down there.
