But the chilling stuff doesn’t end with the exhibits and displays...the history of the building has something to add as well. In the mid-1800s, the structure was originally a shop for a Coffin Maker, becoming a funeral home during the 1870s.

In the 1890s, Native American skulls and remains were discovered buried under the sidewalk in front of the shop. Not only that, but further investigations uncovered information that most of old downtown Monroe was built over an old abandoned graveyard.

So, yeah – there's more to the museum than meets the eye. Scroll down to see some photos of what you can expect...some photos I decided not to share...you’ll have to go see some of the other stuff for yourselves.

The museum is located at 44 S. Monroe Street, Monroe.
