Wax museum rooms are the perfect mix of museum and ghost train. You marvel at the lifelike replicas of famous people, pose for photos with the wax figures and get shocked because you briefly mistook one of the dolls for a real person. It is not for nothing that there are some horror film classics that are set in a wax figure museum.
The strangest videos. (Scroll down to the article.)
The Hollywood Wax Museum in Los Angeles, California, specializes in personalities from film and television. So many dolls have seen it come and go over the decades that a few years ago it auctioned over a hundred of its worst wax figures to make way for new ones.
A wise decision, because some of the creepy wax figures offered for sale were such frightening figures that it is a miracle that someone has offered money for this nightmare material. Some photos of the definitely “cursed” dolls were discovered on the Internet by a man named Wyatt Duncan. Wyatt shuddered so comfortably that he didn’t want to withhold the pictures from anyone and see them on his Twitter account published.
Curtain up for the wax figure museum of horror …
1. Elaine from “Seinfeld”
You could put them in the hallway to greet guests. Or to scare away intruders.
2. Marty McFly
“Back to the Future” wasn’t actually a scary movie …
3. Popeye
So there can be such a thing as “too much spinach”.
4. Nicole Kidman
Would anyone really have recognized her? Hopefully not.
5. Tom Cruise
That smile will haunt you to your worst nightmares. Creepy wax figures of the ex-husband might be a present for Nicole Kidman?
6. Jack
The protagonist from “Titanic” was actually remembered differently.
7. Rose
No, this is a nightmare. The iceberg can’t come fast enough.
8. The joker
You are used to the Joker, that it comes across as disturbing …
9. Superman
… but not from Superman! Make it go away!
10. Kevin at home alone
The burglars will still curse the day this horror kid is done with them.
11. Forrest Gump
Yes, you want to run spontaneously as fast as you can. The main thing is to get away from this figure.
12. Marilyn Monroe
Poor Norma Jeane Baker really deserves better. Hasn’t she been through enough?
13. Morpheus from “The Matrix”
Nobody wants to follow this figure into other worlds. No thanks.
14. Julia Roberts
Seriously? Julia Roberts? In what cruel parallel world does this creature look like Ms. Roberts?
15. And last but not least
There he is floating, clad in his curtain and with freshly blown hair. Do not be afraid.
Who bought these monstrosities from the wax figure museum? Somewhere in the world now, at this moment, there are wicked, gruesomely grinning images of Hollywood legends standing around waiting for someone unsuspecting to come through the door. And they are very, very patient.
