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. Edward begged doctors to have his "devil twin" removed, but none would attempt the surgery. The tale of his life and death are not easily confirmed because of poor record-keeping and conflicting accounts of his apparent suicide at age 23.
