Do you remember the classic film The Lost Boys ?
Okay, you probably do. It’s about surf punk vampires in the sleepy beach town of Santa Clara, California.
Now then, do you remember Grandpa? And his love for taxidermy?

Remember how much it creeped out Corey Haim’s character?

That’s kind of how I feel about taxidermy. It makes me uncomfortable and I really don’t think I’d be able to fall asleep in a room where a moose head or a stuffed squirrel would be staring at me while I lay there…
But that’s just me.
Maybe you love it. Maybe your whole house is covered in dead animals.
Whatever the case, I can assure you that even taxidermy lovers will be unsettled by these misfires…let’s take a look.
1. A spitting image.
The nose ring is a nice touch.
