Ocoee's Prepossessed Possessions is among vendors at Tabernacle Of Oddities coming to the Cuban Club in Ybor City, Florida on Aug. 12-13, 2023.

Dysfunctional Grace is Ybor City’s official little shop of horrifically amazing taxidermy, vintage metaphysical equipment, skulls and oddities.

This weekend, the shop spreads its wings and welcomes all of its weirdly wonderful friends to show off at the Tabernacle Of Oddities, a convention of more than 100 vendors, entertainment (alive and dead, according to Dysfunctional Grace) and tattoo artists taking over the four-story Cuban Club. And yes, there’s a full bar.

Single, and two-day, admission to the Tabernacle Of Oddities Convention & Performance on Saturday-Sunday, Aug. 12-13 at the Cuban Club in Ybor City start at $14. VIP options are available.
