Entry No. 19 — the Baltimore file — filed under: witchy

Witch Board Museum Baltimore

Located above the oddities shop Bazaar, this hyper-niche museum chronicles the history of the Ouija board, which was patented right here in Baltimore in 1890 [2.1.1].

The move: Browse the bizarre taxidermy and medical antiques downstairs at Bazaar, then head upstairs to peer at vintage talking boards and learn how the board supposedly named itself.
