Spooky Changing Portrait
"Aunt Polly"

Demure-looking Aunt Polly was said to have a wild streak.

As you can see, she became a real "swinger!"

Have you ever walked past an old portrait or photograph, one of those proud pictures from the late 19th or early 20th Century featuring the stoic visage of a person, and felt like the eyes followed you? Or maybe, just maybe, caught a glimpse of a head turning and following you as you pass? We’ve all felt the shivers that brings, but only Eddie Allen has taken steps to bring those shivers home to you.

Through his company, Haunted Memories, Eddie brings to life creepy and horrific changes to portraits of an earlier time. He alters old black and white portrait photos so that they change when you move past them or shift your gaze from side to side. An old man may turn into a devil, a small child may become a hideous zombie, or a kindly couple’s loving pose might become a shocking image of murderous violence. All done with a wink of good-natured humor and trickery, of course.

Initially inspired by the changing portraits in Disney’s Haunted Mansion attraction long ago, Eddie has created numerous portraits and is continually working on new creations.
