Unique Stores in New Jersey

New Jersey’s OddStops move from paranormal history and comic culture to farm retail operating beside live entertainment. Paranormal Books & Curiosities combines an Asbury Park bookstore with a guided paranormal museum and unusual local lore. In Red Bank, Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash functions as both a working comic shop and a repository for movie memorabilia. South in Pilesgrove, Cowtown Farmers Market & Rodeo places a vast vendor market on the same property as a seasonal rodeo. These three profiles highlight very different communities and interests; the full New Jersey directory follows below.
