Man With Two Faces

Edward Mordrake
Edward Mordrake, an English nobleman, was born with he face of a parasitic twin on the back of his
head. He was known as the “Man with two faces”. The face appeared to be conscious of it, ‘If Edward
screamed, it would smirk and laugh in silence.’
Often the face will quietly gibber without ceasing. Edward said it was never sleeping but kept him
awake with whispers of other things it was just thinking about.
[… ]“Man With Two Faces” demanded that the face should be destroyed before his burial’ as his awful
whisperings remain in his grave’
Edward Mordrake (or Mordake as he was originally called) was a young, wealthy, and good-looking
English nobleman who had everything from life that one might hope for. But, an awful curse came
with all those wonderful blessings. Mordake possessed a horrific disfigurement in addition to his
perfect, natural face: another face on the back of his head.
Given the elegance of the odd face, there was no question that it possessed its own intellect of a
malignant nature’. His “devil brother” constantly troubled Edward Mordrake, who held him up all night
such things as they’re just thinking about in hell. Edward wrote a note ordering the evil face to be
destroyed after his death, ‘so that it can end its awful whispering in his grave.’
