The exterior of the museum features a 40,000-pound Great Ape statue that is visible from the main parkway.
The museum is the only wax museum in the country devoted entirely to celebrity figures.
Many of the wax figures are dressed in authentic costumes donated by the celebrities themselves or recreated from original production designs.
The complex includes an interactive 'Outbreak - Dread the Undead' zombie maze.
The facility uses a specialized 'Hannah’s Maze of Mirrors' attraction as part of its ticketed entertainment offerings.
The creation process for each figure involves multiple artists and can take several months to complete.
The Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge features a collection of wax figures modeled after iconic American film and television stars. The facility is anchored by the Great Ape of Pigeon Forge, a giant primate sculpture scaling the exterior of the building. Visitors can interact with figures in themed settings that recreate famous movie scenes and red-carpet moments. The museum utilizes professional artists to sculpt and maintain the likenesses, often incorporating real clothing and personal effects where available. It operates as part of a larger entertainment complex that includes interactive games and a mirror maze. The museum is located along the primary tourist corridor of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
