Edward Mordrake was a young man who lived in the 18th Century. He was heir to an English peerage.
Edward was born with a second face on the back of his head. The face could laugh and cry, but did not eat, and would only speak in whispers to Edward at night, making satanic and demonic statements to him.

record-keeping and conflicting accounts of his apparent suicide at age
23.
