It was so much fun for us to "recreate" the museum and we are so glad you enjoyed it . We hope to see you again.

[@TheDailyWoo]

I did . Always plan on stopping off during each cross country I-10 trek . Great job on the remodel

[@scottgregg935]

Haven't been there since i was a kid in the 70's. Glad to see its still there i tell people about it every so often. Now i have a video to point to say"See it really exists" Thanks .

[@johnnyfive222]

This is what makes America great. Small museums and attractions like this. Another great find. Also love the talking Dino’s.

[@nicholedecker2979]

Wow! What a change! I was there once in the 80's and they have really changed, for the better.🌟

[@TheDailyWoo]

Agreed it's so good now

[@timstevens4820]

WOW!! It has been about 15 to 20 years since I last visited that place. They really have improved it greatly. Thank you, Adam, for the new updated museum.

[@TheDailyWoo]

The new additions and theming is really well done .

[@MylesErwin]

It's time for you to plan another trip!

[@timstevens4820]

@@MylesErwin I would love to. You don't know me though. I have Parkinson's. I don't drive anymore for the safety of everyone. I might be able to coordinate a ride with someone. Time will tell. I agree that I should go back as soon as it can be arranged.

[@katenunyabizness9221]

Wow, the remodel was well worth the wait! I really like how they've themed it and woven a story/time line around the exhibits. Looks so much better than just stuff behind chicken wire in open areas. They've really stepped up their game and thanks ATW for sharing this!

[@TheDailyWoo]

I really enjoyed the new look

[@wendelcleghorn7950]

Wow! The Thing did up its game dramatically! It’s been a required stop for my family every time we drive out to California for decades. Good to see that it’s being taken care of, and has a bright future ahead.

[@RocketmanAstro]

I drive past this every summer and I never get to stop, thank you for taking us along and letting me explore somewhere that I have wanted to for a long time

[@CaptainJimHill]

Adam, I had been watching a number of your videos with the larger theme parks and new attractions, then started watching your videos of visits to the smaller but always interesting out of the way roadside museums plus the attractions in places like Gatlinburg and North Carolina. I am 71 years old, a former Marine Corps Captain and a retired emergency medicine Physician Assistant, but after watching your visit to Mt Airy and the Andy Griffith sites (seeing places we didn't even go to on our last visit) and realizing your videos are comprehensive and informative, I decided to subscribe. I have become "addicted" to the videos. Strong work! Captain Hill

[@jamescarter8421]

Sitting at lunch at this job i hate. Watching your videos gives me a sense of..... Escape i guess. Love ya bro.

[@humzahj.]

I love this channel. its about all the hidden gems around America. The roadside attractions that don't get the public eye

[@johngurnhill9804]

After amazing video love from England keep it up Adam.

[@kidghost7628]

WOW! Nice they really fixed up the place very cool seems like a weekend with the kids coming soon...

[@TheDailyWoo]

It's so fun ! Really loved the new layout

[@Bowlinonline]

We would love to see you. It's only $10 for an entire family.

[@BoshiYoshi]

Wooow. Adam's video of his original trip to The Thing is how I found his channel in the first place. I actually just rewatched that old video last night. It's still one of my favorite classic ATW videos but you can tell how much he has improved with his video quality and filming quality since then. It's crazy to see how different this attraction is now. Back then it was just a series of very narrow, crude buildings full of random weird stuff like cars, creepy carved stick creatures and little dioramas of medieval torture. Also Adam didn't show us what The Thing looked like in the original visit. I do really wish he had brought back the creepy whispering of the words "The Thing" from his original video. That was so memorable to me, lol.

[@conniecrawford5231]

It's good to see such an iconic tourist attraction repurpose itself for the modern traveler! You really seem to love that museum!Safe travels, buddy!

Thank you

Hey Adam!! I just wanted to say I love what you do, and your videos are awesome. Ever since I looked up a Halloween movie film location video, I found yours and since the started watching your vlogs. I've actually been watching them in order haha. I'm in the 1500's now. But I also watch the latest ones you post. I'll have to keep eye out for whenever you're back up in New Hampshire area!! Be great to meet you!

I havent been here in a couple of years....what did they do with the older part? Did they enclose what was outside or completely new structure? Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@Bowlinonline]

We completely rebuilt the new museum and doubled the size of the store. The old metal buildings are history. But if you look closely, you will find that most of the items from the old museum are there.

[@TheMadNomadder]

@@Bowlinonline Thanks for getting back with me on my questions. I cant wait to head back west soon and give you guys a visit. My wife is already wanting a Christmas Ornament from there. I am thoroughly impressed by what I saw in AdamTheWoo's visit. Wonderful job on the new museum.

[@maryjomw]

So funny you did a blog about The Thing. I drive to El Paso almost every year and I schedule my drives so I can stop there. Lol

[@GregsVlog]

Last time Jacob was there the place seemed pretty basic. But the new additions really make it worth that $5. Very cool! Such a creative alien vs. dinosaur story, that would make a fun movie... (As an aside, I always wondered if the 1947 Roswell crash did alter history. Seems like that's when computer technology started to take off.) Nice that they let you film it, kinda surprised by that actually. Thing water? You sure that's safe to drink?! Anyway, great job man. Kindled my interest in this RS attraction!

[@TheDailyWoo]

It's gone thru a lot of changes . I loved the original set up and stopped every time I passed by . The last being 8 months or so ago and The Thing was shoved in the corner next to some soda machines while new sections were being built . It was bizarre but kinda fun to stumble on It unexpected . The new layout is amazing . Especially the ending mine area

But the first mainframes were built in World War II.
