This Is What Hamlet Meant

The Atlas Obscura - your source for "Curious and Wonderful Travel Destinations".
Definitive guidebook and friendly tour-guide to the world's most wondrous places. Travel tips, articles, strange facts and unique events.
Di you know that there's an H. R. Giger museum?  Curious about where you can (supposedly) find Thomas Edison's last breath?  Does the idea of visiting Vuclan Point - "An island in the middle of a lake, in the middle of a volcano, in the middle of a bigger lake, in the middle of a bigger island, in an archipelago, in the Pacific Ocean" - tickle your fancy?

I'm going to have to spend some time exploring this site.  It's reportedly not quite as much of an addictive time sink as TV Tropes [1]... but close.

[1] Why, yes.  I did provide you with a link to tvtropes.org.  To the "Xanatos Gambit" article, as a matter of fact.  Oh, go on - it's the weekend.  You weren't going to do anything productive with those three hours, anyways.
