The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is the highest energy particle collider in the world. The collider has the potential to produce a new heavy particle not predicted in the Standard Model of particle physics. So far the searches for the more conventional decay of a new particle have not been successful. There is therefore great interest in the search for unconventional decays. I will review the results of the searches for such exotica by the ATLAS experiment.
