"Edward Mordake (sometimes spelled Mordrake) is the apocryphal subject of an urban legend who was born in the 19th century as the heir to an English peerage with a face at the back of his head.[1] According to legend, the face could whisper, laugh or cry. Mordake repeatedly begged doctors to remove it, claiming it whispered bad things to him at night. Mordake died by suicide at the age of 23."

This wonderfully gruesome recreation of the late Mr. Mordrake's mummified head comes to us from artist EJShindler.

Awesome! I’d love to know how to make that mummified look!
