"More appearances of the Man with the Upside-Down Face. A party at an Air Force base in 1943 where a man was fatally injured, a car accident in 1948, a disastrous train accident in 1951. No one has ever recalled seeing him at the time."

The Dead Mother, by Edvard Munch, has a particularly haunting reputation. Previous owners report the eyes of the child following them and the sound of whispers and rustling sheets coming from the painting. Sometimes the girl even disappears from the canvas altogether... 👻

For decades, until 2010, someone appeared at Edgar Allan Poe's grave in Baltimore before dawn on Jan. 19, his birthday.
The mysterious visitor (aka The Poe Toaster), who was never identified, would leave behind three roses & a half-filled bottle of cognac as a tribute to the writer
