About

Loved to Death is not just a store; it's a haven for collectors, curators, and connoisseurs of the strange and the extraordinary. Established in the heart of San Francisco, our story is one of passion, discovery, and an unrelenting fascination with the unusual.

Our journey into the world of curiosities started with a profound appreciation for the eccentric and the macabre. Founded by Audra in 2008, Loved to Death was born out of a desire to share our love for the peculiar and the beautiful with like-minded enthusiasts. We set out to create a space where the weird and wonderful could find a new home.

At Loved to Death, we specialize in sourcing and showcasing an array of peculiar items, from antique taxidermy and medical oddities to unique artwork and rare collectibles. Our collection reflects our commitment to preserving and celebrating the unconventional.

A Home for Oddities

Loved to Death in San Francisco was more than just a store; it was a sanctuary for those who reveled in the unconventional. For years, our physical store on Haight served as a gathering place for collectors, enthusiasts, and curious souls, all seeking the allure of the strange, the bizarre, and the extraordinary.

However, as times change, so do we. While our beloved San Francisco storefront has become a cherished chapter in our history, we've evolved to meet the needs of our ever-expanding community. Today, Loved to Death has embarked on a new adventure. Our unique collection can now be explored online, making it more accessible to those who share our passion for the peculiar.

In addition to our online presence, we continue to be an active participant in select events throughout the year. These events provide opportunities for our dedicated community to connect with us and explore our ever-evolving collection in person.

Though our physical location in San Francisco may be a fond memory, the spirit of Loved to Death lives on in our virtual storefront and at the special events where we continue to share the magic of the bizarre with our devoted fans.
