The Bigfoot Discovery Museum!

Bigfoot Discovery Museum


What Is the Bigfoot Discovery Museum?

This small, roadside museum is a huge collection of Bigfoot paraphernalia and lore in a tiny, roadside building!

What Makes It Historical?

If you’re a Bigfoot aficionado like I am, this is the place to go to explore the pop culture impact of Bigfoot, the Yeti, and other hairy hominids around the world! Mike Rugg, the curator, is a delightful fellow who is more than happy to share his treasure trove of information about Bigfoot in Santa Cruz and beyond! Ask him some questions, and you may just change your mind about Bigfoot! What makes this museum particularly wonderful, though, is its altruism: find Bigfoot so Bigfoot can be properly protected. Mike claimed to be growing out his hair until Bigfoot is found!
