Support Retrovania Land's Pizzeria & NES Museum

Yo Crypt Squad, pure-blooded monster kids, latchkey ghouls, and late-night pizza-powered freaks!

Cap’n Retrovania here. We’re building the ultimate neon-drenched destination in the Pittsburgh, PA area: Cap’n Retrovania Land's Pizzeria & NES Museum combined with our 80s and 90s video arcade — opening 2027.

Picture it: hot pizza coming out of the oven, original NES consoles and arcade cabinets glowing on CRTs, a full video arcade packed with classic cabinets, and a museum wing loaded with rare cartridges, Nintendo Power collections, memorabilia, and playable stations dedicated to 80s NES horror and 80s & 90s-kid culture. One cohesive, pizza-powered experience.

Sample Haunted Pizzeria Menu:

- Graveyard Resurrection Pie — Spicy pepperoni, gooey mozzarella, and tangy blood-red marinara. Inspired by Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti.

- Belmont's Vampire Hunter Special — Extra garlic, roasted red peppers, black olives, and a drizzle of herbed “holy water” olive oil. Pure Castlevania energy.

- Freddy’s Nightmare Supreme — Pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, and a swirl of spicy dream sauce.

- Camp Crystal Lake Slaughterhouse — Pepperoni, bacon, and jalapeños with a smoky edge. Friday the 13th campfire carnage.

- Monster Party Mayhem — Pepperoni, sausage, olives, onions, and pineapple (fight me). Maximum weird-monster energy.

- Beetlejuice Neitherworld Special — Alternating red sauce and white garlic-ricotta stripes, topped with black olives and green peppers. It’s showtime.

- Jaws Bite — White or red sauce with shrimp (or anchovies) and a lemon-garlic finish.

- Fright Night Special — Smoky bacon, roasted garlic, blood-red peppers, and a midnight-black olive “vampire bite” finish. Pure 1985 Charlie Brewster energy.

- Night of the Demons Pie — Spicy sausage, jalapeños, black olives, and a swirling purple-tinged “possessed” cheese blend. Don’t open that door.

- Goosebumps Haunted Mask Supreme — Pepperoni, mushrooms, and an eerie green pesto swirl under melted mozzarella. The mask wants to stay on.

- TMNT Sewer Supreme — Pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, green peppers, and extra cheese. Cowabunga, pizza time!

- Double Dragon Twin Dragon Special — Double pepperoni, black olives, onions, and a fiery red-pepper kick. Street-fighting power-up.

- Splatterhouse Carnage — Loaded pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and spicy blood-red sauce. Pure 8-bit body-horror mayhem.

- Always available: Classic Cheese, Pepperoni, and the eternal Hawaiian (extra pineapple power-up), plus our house special bread sticks "Retrovania Lands Garlic Bread Sticks".
