A Brooklyn, New York, flea market will offer some bugged-out items for sale this weekend like a spider web ring.

The First Annual Oddities Flea Market will be held March 12 at the Brooklyn Bazaar, giving lovers of the weird a chance to buy some truly bizarre items in all price ranges, according to organizer Ryan Matthew Cohn, best known for his appearances on the Science Channel series, Oddities.

"For $5, you could get a vintage postcard," Cohn told HuffPost. "For a lot more, you could get a taxidermic cat."

Cohn's co-star, Mike Zohn, of New York Citys Obscura Antiques & Oddities , said it's a perfect place to shop for any kind of holiday. "You could get a taxidermic rabbit," he told HuffPost. "That's a good Easter gift for Grandma. But there is also one vendor who specializes in prosthetic eyeballs."

The flea market replaces one that was held a few times a year at the Morbid Anatomy Museum, a death-centric museum in Brooklyn that closed its doors in December.

"Their flea market was one of the most popular events they had," Cohn said. "My wife and I thought, 'How can we save it?' None of the vendors had any place to go."

Zohn hoped the flea market is successful enough that they can hold them every few months.
