1) L.A.’s Oldest Cemetery

The cemetery houses LA’s oldest famous residents’ remains- mayors, war-vets, actors, musicians, religious leaders, etc. with some dating back to mid 19th century.

You’ll recognize their names from the street names of LA. There’s even a jogging lane right in the middle of the cemetery, in case you want to exercise in creepy and unique places .

2) Lost Sunken City

Walk along the coast of the Lost Sunken City.

Located in San Pedro, all that’s left behind of the city is the ruins of old buildings, boulders where roads used to exist and contemporary graffiti painted on the walls along with a breathtaking view of the ocean.

It’s technically private property, but someone recently proposed reopening it to the public.

3) Time Travel Mart

If you’re interested in taking a trip back in time to see and purchase dinosaur eggs or an evil robot memory eraser, this place is your go-to destination.

All the proceeds from this go to a non- profit organization, 826LA, which dedicatedly supports children aged 6- 18 in their creativity and expository writing skills, and to teachers to help inspire their students to write.

You can always give yourself a call back in time if you don’t it as well.

4) Museum of Jurassic Technology

This museum houses some of the most bizarre and ridiculous curiosities ever found in the city. There are radiographs, holographs, paintings of Russian space dogs and whatever else quirk you can think of.

5) California Institute of Abnormal arts

A spot only slightly bigger than the space of a broom closet, it hosts puppetry, music shows, underground movies, burlesque and the like.

It is an eerie cool atmosphere to try some of the best punk rock performances and other oddities.

6) Museum Of Death

Do not go here on a full stomach before making a stop on this location.

This morbid Museum of Death includes everything gory and horrific you can ever think of- from images from Dahlia murder to serial killer artwork to filmed executions and deaths, and countless other creepy displays and artifacts.

Anywhere you go you’ll find yourself equally fascinated and appalled.

7) Philosophical Research Society

In around 20th century, Manly Palmer Hall was drawn to mysticism and cryptic teachings.

He went to become a Minister of the Church of the people that included a wealthy oil family who later subsidized his travels across Asia and Europe, collecting a whole library of ancient arcane texts as he went.

Rumor circulates that you need special permission to get your hands on the private ‘black magic’ texts.

8) Magic Castle

Magic Castle now offers crazy magical mazes and secret passageways, cowboys performing card tricks to fake bookshelf doors and traps along with a host of other vivacities to boggle your mind.

To enter, you need to have formal attire along with an invite from a local magician.

Men can wear ruffled or jeweled collars, along with other old-world clothing items, in addition to bow ties.

9) Sweet

Sweet is a real-life Willy Wonka lair; moreover, here, you can concoct your own chocolate handiworks, including urinals that dispense candy (yes, you read that right!). In fact, Sweet is no ordinary candy shop; it’s unlike any you’ll find anywhere.

10) Randyland

Randell Lawrence, an Echo Park resident known for his unique places, gained fame by designing an enormous, colorful glass structure in front of his house that honors the sun’s rays.

Designing the Phantasma Gloria at Randyland took over 10 years and he hopes to surround his home with glass entirely someday.

He invites everyone to visit Randyland to see the colorful lights made more beautiful with the sun’s light passing through them.

11) Electric Dusk Drive-In

At the Electric Dusk Drive-In, you can experience the lost tradition of watching a movie comfortably seated in your car at one of LA’s luxurious and few drive-in theaters.
