Instead of a movie this weekend why not take in a freakshow? Mutants and freaks once roamed the country with traveling carney folk making a living off their strange looks and acts. The common freak is not hard to find at least if you live a major city but the original freak show traveling troupe is a rare find. Theres a few that still travel the country and here’s their home bases in case you want to catch the act. A freak show and some magic mushrooms could be good time or the worst time ever.
