Exploring the Macabre: A Journey through Savannah’s Graveface Museum
The museum boasts the world’s largest collection of John Wayne Gacy paintings in the world
Savannah, Georgia, is renowned for its cobblestone walkways, historic charm, and captivating riverfront. But amidst this picturesque setting, there exists a hidden gem that beckons those with a penchant for the macabre. Perched just above River Street is the Graveface Museum, offering visitors a chance to delve into the darkest corners of life itself. Since its opening in February 2020, this unique museum, tucked away within an old tobacco storage warehouse, has become a place that leaves an indelible mark on the minds of those who dare to enter.
Part sideshow, part repository of murderabilia, the Graveface Museum boasts an eclectic array of exhibits and curiosities. As you enter the main doors into the gift shop, you’ll be greeted by original and repressed vinyl records, many of them horror soundtracks and scores which have found new life on Graveface’s record label. All along the shelves are various forms of horror movie memorabilia, serial killer-related souvenirs, and an assortment of taxidermy oddities. Yet, it’s the paper-mâché visage of Satan, with its gaping maw, that serves as an ominous welcome to the heart of the museum.
