Creepy Photos Reveal A Different Side History

In The Early 20th Century, Individuals Would Sometimes Elect To Have Death Masks Made Of The Recently Deceased.

Death masks are sometimes wax or plaster cast of a mold that was taken from the face of a dead person. Essentially, a death mask is a true portrait of the dead, although some changes can be made if desired. Sometimes changes are made to the eyes of the mask in order to make it appear as though the subject were still alive. Super unnerving.
