Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hollywood - History, Location & Key Facts 2022

The Basics

Inside the museum, 300 exhibits are spread across two floors and 15 galleries. When the Hollywood landmark was overhauled in 2012, some of the most gruesome exhibits were removed to make the experience more family-friendly. You’ll still find plenty of oddities here, though. Highlights include a vampire-killing kit, interactive musical stairs, Marilyn Monroe memorabilia, and a moving automaton of the world’s tallest man.

How to Get There

Located at 6780 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, the museum is walking distance from some of the city’s top attractions. If you’re coming by car, parking is available at the Hollywood and Highland Center across the street. A nearby bus stop, located just around the corner on N Highland Avenue, has service from the 222, 237, and 656 lines. The closest metro station is Hollywood and Vine, which is 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) away.
