Morbitorium – Museum & Shop

The Morbitorium is the place to be if you’re interested in the strange and unusual. It’s a fascinating blend of museum and haunted house with a witchy gift shop; you won’t find anywhere else like this!

The 19th century canal-side cottage is home to the museum of witchcraft & oddities; a private collection that has taken many decades to assemble and contains bizarre artifacts from around the world, such as haunted dolls, antique lobotomy tools, mummified cats and an entire wall of Ouija boards sent to the museum by people too terrified to ever use them again! A large collection of wet specimens glows softly from the corner of the room and casts an eerie light over the Annabelle doll and vampire hunting kit. In fact, there’s so much on display that it may take you a few visits before you’ve seen everything.

The shop can supply all your witchcraft needs, plus some fun gifts for you or your friends. The apothecary has a wide range of magical herbs, and there are always spell candles, incense, and tarot cards in stock. If you’re just starting to explore witchcraft, the Morbitorium can advise on many topics, so don’t be afraid to ask! There’s no such thing as a weird question here and it can be guaranteed that stranger questions have been heard.

In addition to the usual regular opening hours, the Morbitorium also hosts after-hours events, including witchcraft workshops and séance/paranormal evenings. The Morbitorium work with some of the best local groups & practitioners to deliver fun workshops and experiences that will make you want to return again and again. Learn more about paganism and witchcraft, or explore the museum after dark to see the collection of human skulls and to try to communicate with the spirits that reside here. If you’re more ‘hands on,’ then join the Morbitorium for a day of crafting (witchy themed, of course!) to create your own protection bottles, puppet dolls, witches’ ladders and other witchcraft tools for you to take home.
