Just looked on the Wax Museum auction and I gotta tell you…the figures are a little creepy and some of them don’t look like who they’re supposed to look like.

Gotta agree with Shelly. The wax figures are completely creepy. You’d have to be a little loopy to want something like that.

I wasn’t so much creeped out by the wax figures as I was awed that some people actually think they look like their namesakes. Some bore a vague resemblance, but most just looked like their heads were made of melting butter.
