The author describes Madame Tussaud's as being "an enclosed amusement park" and describes the experience as being "a weird, moving, sometimes terrifying (to children) collage of exhibitions".

The author gives a breif history of Madame Tussuad's herself and states that "she moved her original museum from Paris to England in 1802" and she also took "the death masks from the guillotined heads of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette" which are also on display at the wax museum.

The author states that Madame Tussaud's wax museums have been opened up around the world but none of them have the same "realism and imagination" as this one does.

The author talks about the various attractions inside the museum and states that there is "a kind of underground dungeon" in which there are "are all kinds of instruments of death, along with figures of their victims".

The author concludes by stating that in order to avoid the long queues in summer "call the waxworks in advance and reserve a ticket for fast pickup at the entrance".
