ST. PETERSBURG, FL \u2014 St. Petersburg\u2019s Multiverseland<\/a>, dubbed an “intergalactic mini theme park\u201d by its founders, offers guests an artistic, immersive and self-reflective experience right in a North Kenwood backyard. <\/p>\n

Brian Loverde \u2014 best known as his alien alter ego, Dr. Good Vibes \u2014 and his stepdaughter, Wallace \u201cWally\u201d Southworth, who has adopted the moniker of Dean Smiley, have transformed their yard into an interactive multiverse museum. <\/p>\n

This Saturday, at 7 p.m., Multiverseland is hosting a free Create Your Own Multiverse tour<\/a> and gathering at the celestial adventure park, which is held monthly. <\/p>\n

Dr. Good Vibes and Dean Smiley have long been fascinated by the concept of the multiverse. <\/p>\n

In a previous interview with Patch, Dr. Good Vibes said, \u201cThere\u2019s more than one universe and there are more than one version of each person. We all have alternate selves.\u201d<\/p>\n

He recently told Patch that he hopes Multiverseland<\/a> will help people better understand themselves. <\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody is a part of the multiverse in that sense that everybody creates their own multiverse, their own reality,\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019re creating it by their choices, by their free will, by their beliefs, by their actions.\u201d<\/p>\n

For decades, the pair dressed as aliens from their original universe, Universe No. 37,689, the Good Vibes universe, and performed at schools, events, churches and other venues across the country to share the scientific and philosophical concept with others.<\/p>\n

They used song and dance to entertain audiences and make the ideas more fun, accessible and easy to understand. <\/p>\n

When the COVID-19 pandemic sidelined their live performances, they got to work transforming their yard into a multiverse destination.<\/p>\n

Multiverseland launched in May 2024 with a fundraiser for the Optimist Club of St. Petersburg, sharing its colorful immersive experience with visitors, taking through various scenes, including the Cosmic Disco, the Fortune Teller, the Hall of Mirrors and the Meditation Garden, for the first time.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince then, Good Vibes has been going fine, though there have certainly been some downs, but also ups,\u201d Dr. Good Vibes said. <\/p>\n

They quickly realized weather was a potential issue when they were forced to shut down operations during extreme heat and the rainy season.<\/p>\n

And in the fall of 2024, Multiverseland was hit by double hurricanes, which forced them to take several months to rebuild. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut it\u2019s much improved and we expanded it,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

And thanks to word-of-mouth, people keep learning about the destination, which is tucked away in a residential neighborhood, not far from the St. Petersburg High School football field. <\/p>\n

Multiverseland collaborated with the Imagine Museum to present Sci-Fi Week earlier this year and, in 2025, a Miami-based filmmaker made a short documentary about the movement, \u201cMessages from the Multiverse,\u201d<\/a> which picked up a few awards at film festivals.<\/p>\n

Now, they open their space to the public, at no cost to guests, whenever their health and time allows. <\/p>\n

Though there is no set schedule, these guided tours of Multiverseland are at the heart of their movement. <\/p>\n

\u201cEach area is totally immersive and totally interactive. People are part of the things,\u201d Dr. Good Vibes said. <\/p>\n

Visitors might dance in the Cosmic Disco, have their fortune told, write \u201cbad vibes\u201d on slips of paper that get burned or chant about good vibes, he said. <\/p>\n

But there\u2019s also an educational component to Multiverseland. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Hall of Mirrors is used to introduce the idea more about alternative selves,\u201d Dr. Good Vibes said. <\/p>\n

And the Multiverse Hall of Fame highlights scientists who have explored the multiverse theory, such as Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawkins and Neil deGrasse Tyson.<\/p>\n

The \u201cWorld Up Ahead\u201d Area is where visitors encounter \u201cthe real truth about the multiverse,\u201d Dr. Good Vibes said. \u201cYou do create your own multiverse because you create alternate selves every time you make an important choice. Everyone has their own multiverse; they\u2019re not consciously aware of it necessarily, but you might get glimpses of it when you dream or are in deep meditation.\u201d<\/p>\n

He looks forward to educating people about the multiverse through immersive installations. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re just trying to be a place where people can at the very least have a good time, but we hope it picks up their spirits and raises their vibrations, as we said,\u201d he said. \u201cHopefully, they think about this concept of the multiverse and what it really means and, hopefully, what it means to them personally. It\u2019s not like the multiverse is some place far away.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Good Vibes added, \u201cWe\u2019re trying to counteract some of the ideas people might have picked up in movies, like Marvel movies, kind of thing, where they emphasize [the multiverse] is a place of battleground with evil spirits. We want to counteract that. It\u2019s a place of good vibes if you want it to be.\u201d<\/p>\n
