HERITAGE SURFERS PARADISE

The Wax Museum is the largest in the southern hemisphere.

At the Wax Museum you can meet famous people who made history- Movie Stars, Scientists, Explorers, Villains and World Leaders all presented with startling realism and dressed in authentically reproduced costumes of their times.

"The figures are so life-like the visitor could be excused for expecting them to walk and talk".

There are two sections to the Museum:

The WORLD IN WAX provides a series of snapshots of the people who have shaped and continue to shape our lives, It presents human beings in ll their variety. This exhibit included Dioramas of Australian History and Nersery Rymes, Replicas of the Crown Jewls and Fantasia Macabre, a unique and little seen collection of mythical characters from fiction features such macabre identities as Count Dracula, Frankenstein Monster, The Thing, The Zombie, The Werewolf & many other creatures from Legend, folklore & literature.

The Chamber of Horrors is a grim, staggering record of Human Cruelty throughout the ages... More spine chilling than fiction, is the only display of its kind in the world.
