Wow that’s really cool. Looks almost like the same face 😱
The figure/face in the mirror looks to me like the post mortem photo of the lady with the eyes sewn open and mouth sewn shut. I did a side by side screenshot
whoa!! creepy great capture Jen do you know the time stamp?
Oops sorry forgot that @3:51:24. After Lilly says it’s a demon and you saying you saw a face in the mirror. To me the eyes look like the lady in that picture.
I was able to get another screenshot and this time still looks like the lady but maybe a little like Kristin’s drawing from the washoe (I think she showed that last night)
