The Freakybuttrue Peculiarium and Museum, Unconventional museum and gallery in Northwest District, Portland, United States.

The Peculiarium contains interactive art installations, rare artifacts, and exhibits about urban legends, myths, cryptozoology, and supernatural phenomena through six dedicated spaces.

Conrad Talmadge Elwood founded this institution in 1967 as an art gallery to showcase unusual discoveries and artifacts from his worldwide explorations.

The museum reflects Portland's alternative spirit through exhibits featuring Bigfoot encounters, alien autopsies, haunted dollhouses, and collections of regional urban legends.

Visitors can purchase admission tickets valid until 2057, explore the gift shop for eccentric merchandise, and experience interactive photo opportunities throughout the venue.

The museum serves edible insects and maintains an alien intern named Robert who participates in local baseball games and community events.
