Alice\u2019s Haunted Little Bookshop<\/b><\/p>\n

Located in Olde Mistick Village, Alice\u2019s Haunted Little Bookshop<\/a> is a one of a kind book store inspired by the 18th century Victorian Library of Lewis Carroll in Oxford, England. A home for special, strange, and forgotten books, many of which have never been on a bestseller list or found in a traditional book store. In fact, you won\u2019t find any current best sellers on the shelves, but instead a specially curated collection for all ages awaits. Aside from books, you can find Victorian items, gifts, and original 19th century newspapers. Alice\u2019s Haunted Little Bookshop is definitely worth a visit!<\/p>\n<\/div>
