Need A Severed Hand? Try This Second Hand Store

If you're shopping for a pickled brain, a shrunken head, a two-headed calf, or a necklace made from human teeth, Evan Michaelson and Mike Zohn are here to help.

Zohn and Michaelson are co-owners of New York City's Obscura Antiques & Oddities, and together with Ryan Matthew, they star in Science Channel's "Oddities" TV show.

With more than 100,000 fans converging on New York Comic Con this weekend, the Oddities team is planning some big surprises. They've been a fixture at NYCC the last three years, and their Friday panel discussion will feature exclusive clips from the new season and artifacts that will show human body parts in gloriously macabre way.

HuffPost Weird News executive editor Buck Wolf is moderating the Oddities panel. He and HuffPost Live's Mike Sacks sat down with Evan and Mike Thursday to examine a severed hand, artwork made from human hair, and a two-headed turtle.
