Quotes 

• [Oscar Putney, owner of the wax museum discusses with his wife the plans for building a freak show] 

  Oscar Putney : They line up three deep for the Police Gazette and the Penny Dreadfuls. And those are only pictures. We give 'em it fully formed. Horror in all its horror.

  Octavia Putney : Yeah, time will prove it, eh?

  Oscar Putney : A husband could use a show of support from his wife. Besides, with this, we're not simulating anything... it's all real. Flesh and blood, and pumping hearts and all. Here, look at this. We add another entrance here, at the corner. Two attractions, two gates... two admissions. Give 'em a discount for buying both. They go down the stairs here.

  Octavia Putney : I don't follow. Where are you keeping them?

  Oscar Putney : In this half of the cellar, if I can't rent it off the tobacconist. You see?

  Octavia Putney : You going to keep them in the cellar? All the time?

  Oscar Putney : Of course. They don't need the light. They're freaks.
