Witch's Dungeon Classic Movie Museum, Horror film museum in Plainville, Connecticut, United States.
The museum displays life-sized figures of classic movie monsters with authentic film sets and specialized lighting across multiple rooms. Each scene recreates the iconic moments from the original productions.
The museum opened in 1966 to display horror film classics in a chalet-style building. It relocated to a new location in 2014 and continues presenting these collections today.
The collection showcases original costumes and props from horror classics like Frankenstein and Dracula. You see how these films shaped the visual language that horror still uses today.
The museum is located in downtown and opens on weekend evenings, making it easy to fit a visit into your schedule. Plan time to explore multiple rooms and arrive early if you prefer to avoid waiting.
The lighting was designed by an Emmy-winning specialist and plays a major role in how the figures and scenes appear. This attention to detail makes the difference between a simple display and a fully crafted experience.
