Claims about Edward Mordrake and his life, that he was born in the 19th century, was smart, young and handsome, and was an English nobleman with incredible musical abilities. It is also mentioned that Mordrake achieved extraordinary achievements at a very young age and was a figure of elegance. In addition to all these wonderful features that Edward Mordrake had, he had a flaw that his life has been the subject of movies and TV shows today. Edward Mordrake was said to have another face behind his handsome face.<\/p>\n

We can’t know if what has been said about Edward Mordrake is word for word true. Because we don’t even have any proof that Edward Mordrake is alive. Those who saw the alleged second face of Edward Mordrake described it as “beautiful as a dream, as terrifying as the devil”. It’s said that Mordrake’s second face always smiles cynically whenever Mordrake cries, and wears an unhappy expression whenever Mordrake smiles.<\/p>\n
It is said that this second evil face, which is located right behind Mordrake’s beautiful face, cannot reveal itself very well and stands behind the young man’s head like a mask. This face, seemingly inactive except for simple facial movements and meaningless muttering from its open mouth, was responsible for Mordrake’s sleepless nights with its murmurs.<\/p>\n
It is said that the young man lost his mind when he was only 23 and ended his life. It is rumored that Edward Mordrake left a note behind after his death, in which he inherited the destruction of both his own face and his “demon’s” face, with the words “don’t let his dreadful whispers continue in my grave”. This note also contained the following words:<\/p>\n
“No imagination can fathom the terrible temptations he has put before me.”<\/em><\/p>\n While this story of Edward Mordrake seems to have been confirmed by a case in 1896 in the “Anomalies and Curiosities of Medicine – A Collection of Bizarre Medical Cases”\u00a0 published by American doctors George M. Gould and Walter L. Pyle, a compilation of unnatural medical cases, of Mordrake’s. We have no concrete evidence that he is alive.<\/p>\n Craniofacial duplication, also known as Diprosopus, is a very rare congenital disease that occurs as a result of abnormal proliferation of the head and face regions. All cases seen in this disease are considered as conjoined twins. While some babies born with this disease have only a few facial features (such as two noses and three eyes on one face), others may have two facial features in one head, such as Edward Mordrake’s case.<\/p>\n Bodies with this disease usually appear normal. Diprosopus constitutes the most common type of conjoined twins. Since the disease was first documented in the history of medicine in 1884, a total of 35 cases of Diprosopus have been seen worldwide.<\/p>\n
