‘Worst’ celebrity waxworks all come from the Louis Tussauds’ collection of 150 models (Picture: Alban Donohoe/Shutterstock)
Celebrities getting their likeness immortalised in wax is considered an honour, especially when it is uncannily similar or flattering to the famous face being replicated.
Louis Tussauds’ House of Wax in Great Yarmouth is famed for a collection of stars’ likenesses dating back to the 1970s that are just really, really wrong.
The waxworks are so bad the attraction gained a cult following with people flocking to the museum to mock the eerie creations.
Despite the infamy, the House of Wax was shut down in 2012 and the 150 models were sold to an anonymous buyer for an undisclosed price.
While the museum is gone, the haunting figures live on forever so get ready to meet your new sleep paralysis demon — here’s the worst collection of celebrity waxworks ever made.
