Walking into Leroy's location is like teleporting into a Tim Burton film (one of the old ones),but with giant monster puppets everywhere. The window, a casual beach scene with a monster building a "sandwich castle, or " is sure to catch your eye. The exterior is just a trace of what the shop holds. Leroy's location is a whimsical wonderland filled with original art,film, puppetry, or clothing,and gifts. It feels like more of a lighthearted gallery than a store. It's just the type of random and magical location you hope to find when exploring New York. Once inside, you can enter through a secret door to get inside an installation with a giant "tiger sharktopus" puppet, and fabricate (to make up, invent) a monster play guitar,and receive slobbery kisses from a "Ralf." You can browse—and buy—one-of-a-kind artwork featuring all sorts of marvelous monsters. The collection of gifts available for purchase is handmade, pun-filled, and hilarious. Leroy's location even has a secret courtyard where they host events and workshops.
