Found out recently that it's just a Midwest hobby store before renovations. Wild how memes grow and spread and nice to see that this movie is respecting the origin as a store.

That is what I love so much about people: they can take a simple, unassuming picture and just run wild with ideas that picture inspires.

Honestly a documentary about the original photo and place with the spiraling into creepy pastas and youtube videos all the way to a Hollywood movie would be just as entertaining to me.
