I'm from California originally, and have been to the actual Hollywood Wax Museum many times. This is indeed a scaled-down version, but it's still fun, especially for those who may never make it to the actual one in Hollywood. It is not as big as the Tussaud's wax museums, but those are independent buildings meant to be full sized attractions.... more

a very nice wax museum. the figures were very well done. love the fact you can stand next to the figures and take some fun photos. a little pricy , but what the heck , its a vacation so quibble about a few extra bucks here or there and lose the reason you left home in the first place. more

Pricey to get in - even w/ a $2.00 off per person coupon it cost us $27.00 for two people. But... it was fun! You are not restricted by ropes or railings, you can actually get right up next to the figures and get some pretty cool pictures. I laid down on the bed w/ Hugh Heffner! Pricey, not as... more

My family had a great time here. I did feel it was a little over priced considering it was $53 for 2 adults and 2 children. But we did have a great time. We took pictures with the wax figures and some of them did look alot like the real person. The horror room was very creepy especially since we... more

My boyfriend and I went to this last year. When we got home and showed our friends and family all the funny pictures they laughed so hard! We got some really good pictures there and had a good time! Most of the characters do look pretty spot on as well. I do recommend coming here for a good time! more

I did find the wax figures a lot of fun...all 5 of them. It was $30.00 for both me and my husband to get in for a 20 minute walk through of the wax museum. I also didn't find the figures to look much like the hollywood stars. But I did like being able to take pics next to the... more

The best part is you can walk next to the people and take all sorts of fun pic. The only down side is its pretty small and only takes 25 mins at the most. more

We went to the wax museum because my little girls remembered having so much fun at Madame Tussards in Washington DC. The quality of some of the figures is better then others(James dean looked strangely like David Caruso from CSI Miami). But you can touch and pose with all the figures which made for some funny pictures. The horror section... more

The admission is a little steep without coupons. It cost us $53 for 4 people with coupons, but it was pretty fun. I was a little surprised by some of the figures that were chosen for exhibit. I truly expected at least Elvis to be represented there but he wasn't. Some of the ones chosen seemed kind of random, but... more

No kidding. We usually stick to the aquarium when we go to Gatlinburg and never thought a wax museum would be so much fun. The wax museum isn't just for looking at replicas though - it's also a great photo op again and again. My husband and I posed w/ Lucy, the Star Trek cast and the Exorcist girl just... more
