Seth Darby shared a thread of photos from his trip to the Polonia Wax Museum in Krakow, Poland—and the wax figures are going viral for just how awful they are.

If you've never come face to face with a celebrity and taken pictures with them, you can experience the next best thing by going to wax museums.

Wax figure museums are the ultimate tourist traps that simultaneously delight and frighten visitors.


Artificial clones of high-profile individuals like Harry Styles, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, or Lady Gaga can await patrons in these attractions, ready to stare them down with their soulless eyes.

While wax figures have become synonymous with horror movie tropes, they're also subject to mockery by discerning visitors to popular tourist traps like Madame Tussauds or the Hollywood Wax Museum for their poorly sculpted figures.

One Central Europe wax museum in particular is going viral for housing figures that have zero resemblance to the famous individuals they're paying homage.

A patron named Seth Darby claimed:

"The Polonia Wax Museum in Krakov is a thing of beauty. The best £12.50 [$15.87 USD] ever spent."

And by "beauty," Darby meant the museum was truly a treasure trove featuring some amazing wax figure fails.

What follows is a thread of images Seth took inside that has now gone viral.

You'll see why.

Take a look at Her Majesty, all resurrected and windswept.


The Polonia Wax Museum's website's description reads:

"Famous politicians, clergy, athletes, actors, fictional characters."
"All wax figures are carefully made so as to reflect the smallest details and so that you can feel that they are really standing next to you."

...And sucking your soul.

We're just getting started on this grand tour.

Prince William just can't contain his glee while he and Catherine, Princess of Wales, greet fans.

Gravity was not kind to Marilyn here.


Michael's telling you to look in the mirror and change your ways, or else!


We didn't think Mick Jagger's success went straight to his head, but this disproportionate figure says otherwise.


We're "all shook up" that Elvis looks like he was created by using the Tom Cruise template.


Even Halloween's Michael Myers would run away in terror after encountering the former Pres.

Jack Sparrow was always up to no good.


We wish we could Expecto Patronum these bad Harry Potter moppets that are more like Children of the Damned.

Starting with...is that supposed to be young Rupert Grint?


We think this is Emma Watson.


Wait, didn't we just see Emma?

Ohhh, the wig swap and addition of spectacles transform her to prepubescent Daniel Radcliffe...maybe.

Is the Rocket Man tickling the keys or embalming a cadaver?


Even Nancy Pelosi couldn't help but crash the party.

We now enter the villains' lair, where the most nefarious evildoers in history are brought back to life, starting with Osama Bin Laden.

Who invited Hitler?


Vladimir Putin is making himself at home behind bars...and bound in chains.


And perhaps the most terrifying figure of all is this replica of Mr. Bean.

Good thing he's not looking right into the camera lens and straight into your soul.


Past visitors shared their own memories.



The comment section continued being flooded with rich one-liners.



Thanks for the nightmare fuel, Seth.

Design For New Commemorative Coin Featuring Trump Just Dropped—And People Can't Believe It's Real

On March 19, the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), comprising people appointed by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, unanimously approved a final design concept proposed for a 24-karat gold United States semiquincentennial commemorative coin.

Instead of featuring the Declaration of Independence or some other images central to the foundation of the nation in 1776 or more universally recognized symbols from the last 250 years, the CFA chose a sketch based on a photo of Trump leaning over the Resolute desk in the Oval Office for the coin's obverse or "heads" side.

Gavin Newsom Said What We're All Thinking About Trump's Decision To Deploy ICE To Airports

After President Donald Trump moved to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, California Governor Gavin Newsom pointed out exactly why the move is so troubling for citizens and non-citizens alike.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
