“I was born in Galveston, Texas in 1957 in the middle of a hurricane. I guess because of the drop in the barometric pressure it affected my brain and I was destined to become a stand-up comic, although at that age I wasn’t aware of my destiny.” – Bill Engvall



Did you know that you can, in a single spot in Galveston, travel through a rainforest, take photos with African and Asian fauna, peek inside an actual full of flying rodents bat caves, listen to a thundering waterfall, and even examine an ancient Mayan temple? All of that while scratching your head and asking, “why is there a huge glass pyramid in the middle of G-Town?”



The truth is that regardless of the ghosts, the bloody murders, and the sheer amount of natural disasters, Galveston is at its heart a magical and awfully strange place. The ghosts? The hauntings? The horror stories? They just add the necessary dash of Tabasco sauce to Galveston oddball goulash. It’s not a prerequisite to truly undertone the city, but it’s one that will give the melange that extra spicy punch.
