A more sinister version wouldn't just capture those that stumble into its "museum," but would send agents on expeditions to collect specimens to fill out various exhibits. Perhaps it is a grimly apocalyptic setting where the world is likely to end soon. The spirit (or god?) and its dungeon exist outside of time, so it wants to preserve examples of this world for future worlds to be able to look back on. It may try to recruit the PCs to help it collect more specimens before the end. Of course, items in its collection could be the key to stopping or postponing the apocalypse.
