A couple was left in shock and disbelief when they made a chilling discovery hidden beneath the floorboards of their house. It was a mysterious "human mask."
The discovery has left them questioning the history and secrets that are hidden in their Vitoria-era house.
A 'death mask' was found under the floorboards.
One couple, who did not want to be named, said they had just moved into the Victorian house not long ago. Today, they decided to renovate the house.
During the process of removing the floorboards, she and her husband found a terrifying object underneath the floorboards: a death mask.
The mask is made from the faces of dead people from the Victorian era
The woman described a mask cast from plaster depicting a human face that she believed was from the Victorian era and was hidden underneath their house.
She posted the incident on Reddit and explained that she was confident this was a dead person because their eyelids were slightly open as shown by the death mask.
According to the author's description, they estimate this is the face of a middle-aged woman who especially has no eyebrows.
When she discovered the mask, she also discovered that it had a small hook attached to the back to hang on the wall or somewhere.
The couple emphasized it is not known how the mask got there. Besides this scary object, they did not find any other suspicious ones.
They are currently very confused because they don't know what to do with the death mask.
The couple feared that selling it would bring them bad luck. But they also couldn't keep it because it was too scary.
The death mask caused controversy on social media
After posting the incident on social networks, the death mask caused controversy about its reliability.
Some believe that this is an amazing discovery and it is actually a death mask.
I think you should look into antique or weird stores. They will definitely like it, One person commented.
Try contacting your local historical society museum, they might be able to help you, said the second.
The mask looks so scary!!!! A third person exclaimed.
Meanwhile, some people call this just a trick of someone, or it is a normal face that they often see in art schools.
I'm pretty sure they're just regular masks similar to the ones that looked like my art school, one person claimed.
I think the death mask would be more sunken. You should compare it with the Abraham Lincoln death mask to see if what you find is it, a second person suggested.
My girlfriend also has one because she goes to art school. It's not so unusual to make these things, someone wrote.
