Ripley’s Believe It or Not!里普利的信不信由你！
Ripley’s Believe It or Not! is an American franchise, founded by Robert Ripley, which deals in bizarre events and items so strange and unusual that readers might question the claims. Originally a newspaper panel, the Believe It or Not feature proved popular and was later adapted into a wide variety of formats, including radio, television, comic books, a chain of museums, and a book series.
The Ripley collection includes 20,000 photographs, 30,000 artifacts and more than 100,000 cartoon panels. With 80-plus attractions, the Orlando-based Ripley Entertainment, Inc., a division of the Jim Pattison Group, is a global company with an annual attendance of more than 12 million guests. Ripley Entertainment’s publishing and broadcast divisions oversee numerous projects, including the syndicated TV series, the newspaper cartoon panel, books, posters, and games.
里普利的信不信由你！ 是一個由羅伯特里普利創立的美國特許經營公司，該公司處理奇怪的事件和非常不尋常的項目，讀者可能質疑這些說法。 最初是一個報紙小組，相信它或不是特色證明是受歡迎的，後來被改編成各種各樣的格式，包括廣播，電視，漫畫書，一系列博物館和一系列書籍。
Ripley系列包括20,000張照片，30,000件文物和超過100,000張卡通面板。 總部位於奧蘭多的Ripley Entertainment，Inc。是Jim Pattison集團的一個部門，擁有80多個景點，是一家全球性公司，年訪客人數超過1200萬。 Ripley Entertainment的出版和廣播部門負責監督眾多項目，包括聯合電視劇，報紙卡通小組，書籍，海報和遊戲。
When Ripley first displayed his collection to the public at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1933, it was labeled Ripley’s Odditorium and attracted over two million visitors during the run of the fair. (In an apparent promotional gimmick, beds were provided in the Odditorium for people who “fainted” daily.) That successful exhibition led to trailer shows across the country during the 1930s, and Ripley’s collections were exhibited at many major fairs and expositions, including San Francisco, San Diego, Dallas, and Cleveland. In New York, the famed Times Square exhibit opened in 1939 on Broadway. In 1950, a year after Ripley’s death, the first permanent Odditorium opened in St. Augustine, Florida.
As of December 2010, there are 32 Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Odditoriums around the world. Odditoriums, in the spirit of Believe It or Not!, are often more than simple museums cluttered with curiosities. Some include theaters and arcades, such as the ones in Gatlinburg, Tennessee and Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. Others are constructed oddly, such as the Orlando, Florida Odditorium which is built off-level as if the building is sinking. Expected to open summer 2016 is the first Odditorium in the Netherlands, at Dam square in Amsterdam.
當Ripley於1933年在芝加哥世界博覽會上首次向公眾展示他的收藏品時，它被標記為Ripley’s Odditorium，並在展會期間吸引了超過200萬的參觀者。 （在一個明顯的宣傳噱頭中，Odditorium為每天“暈倒”的人們提供了床位。）這個成功的展覽在20世紀30年代導致全國各地的預告片展示，Ripley的系列作品在包括San在內的許多大型展覽會和博覽會上展出。舊金山，聖地亞哥，達拉斯和克利夫蘭。在紐約，著名的時代廣場展覽於1939年在百老匯開幕。 1950年，也就是里普利逝世一年後，第一個永久性的Odditorium在佛羅里達州聖奧古斯丁開業。
截至2010年12月，有32個Ripley的信不信由你！世界各地的Odditorium。 Odditoriums，本著信不信由你的精神，往往不僅僅是簡單的博物館，充滿了好奇心。其中一些包括劇院和商場，如加特林堡，田納西州和威斯康星州威斯康星州的威斯康星州。其他的建造奇特，如奧蘭多，佛羅里達州的Odditorium，建在樓外，好像建築物正在下沉。預計將於2016年夏季開放，是荷蘭第一座位於阿姆斯特丹水壩廣場的Odditorium。

St. Augustine 聖奧古斯丁
St. Augustine – It is the oldest Ripley’s Believe It or Not! and is located in the Castle Warden, was purchased shortly after his death in 1949 and opened in 1950. Prior to becoming home to his vast collections from his many travels, “The Castle”, as it is known, was once a hotel which played host to many famous guests, including Ripley himself and author/owner Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. It was originally a Moorish Revival style mansion, built in 1887 by millionaire William Warden as a winter home. Its popularity and success led Ripley’s associates to open new establishments throughout the United States and the world. Perhaps not surprisingly, it is also rumored to be haunted. Segments of the most recent Ripley’s TV series were filmed here, including the opening credits. Among the attractions here are a mummified cat, a 1/12 scale model of the original Ferris wheel made out of Erector sets, life and death masks of famous celebrities (including Abraham Lincoln), and shamanistic apparati from cultures around the world.
聖奧古斯丁 – 這是最古老的里普利的信不信由你！位於Castle Warden，於1949年去世後不久購買並於1950年開業。在他的眾多旅行中成為他的大量藏品之前，眾所周知，“城堡”曾經是一個酒店許多著名的嘉賓，包括里普利本人和作家/所有者瑪喬麗金南羅林斯。它最初是一座摩爾復興風格的豪宅，由百萬富翁威廉·沃登（William Warden）於1887年建造，作為冬季住宅。它的受歡迎程度和成功使得Ripley的員工在美國和全世界開設了新的機構。也許並不奇怪，也有傳言說它會被困擾。最近的里普利電視劇的片段在這裡拍攝，包括開場演出。這裡的景點包括木乃伊貓，由Erector套裝製成的原始摩天輪的1/12比例模型，著名名人（包括亞伯拉罕林肯）的生死面具，以及來自世界各地文化的薩滿教裝置。

Gatlinburg – The original museum, built in 1970, was destroyed by a massive fire caused by a faulty light fixture in a neighboring shop on July 14, 1992. It had to be completely rebuilt. Some of Ripley’s most prized and unique possessions were consumed by the blaze. The current museum opened in 1994, with a tribute to the city’s firefighters included among the collections. Artifacts salvaged from the blaze sport “I Survived The Fire” decals. It also has nearly twice the amount of exhibit space as the original. As with some other Ripley museums, it has a theme. It looks as if it has survived a major earthquake. Its interior and exterior feature cracks throughout, adhering to the theme. The Ripley’s Company has since opened several other attractions in the area, including a “four-dimensional” theater, a state-of-the-art aquarium, a haunted factory, several arcades, two miniature golf courses, and a mirror maze all of which carry the Ripley’s brand name and signature logo.
