Having your own wax figure is often seen as a great accomplishment for celebrities. It's a way for them to be immortalized and it's always a flattering feeling to see a perfect replica of yourself. However, not all wax figures turn out as expected. In fact, the worst of them all seem to come from the infamous Louis Tussauds' House of Wax collection, which boasts a total of 150 models.
From Harry Styles to the Royal Family, this collection includes a wide range of famous faces. When done right, these wax figures can be considered a work of art. But when they go wrong, the results can be quite terrifying. Louis Tussauds' House of Wax, located in Great Yarmouth, became known for its eerie and poorly crafted wax figures dating back to the 1970s. Despite the museum gaining a cult following, it was eventually shut down in 2012 and the 150 models were sold to an anonymous buyer for an undisclosed price.
However, even though the museum is no longer open, these haunting figures continue to live on, ready to give anyone who sees them nightmares. So without further ado, let's take a closer look at the worst celebrity waxworks ever made.
Starting with Princess Diana, who is known for her beauty and grace, but unfortunately, her wax figure falls short in capturing her likeness. Moving on to Kylie Minogue, hers doesn't seem so bad until you see the one of her former flame Jason Donovan, which really puts things into perspective. Surprisingly, the wax figure of Elvis Presley is one of the better ones in the collection. But when it comes to former football player Gary Lineker, well, let's just say his wax figure is definitely not a goal.
Even famous figures like Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher were not spared from the horrors of this collection. And speaking of horrors, Boy George's wax figure looks like it's wearing a regular-sized hat, which just doesn't make any sense. And then there's the one of Adolf Hitler, which leaves us speechless.
Moving onto the music industry, there's a wax figure of Michael Jackson that looks like it belongs in the "Thriller" music video, but only as a zombie. And we can't help but apologize to the late Queen Mother for her less-than-flattering wax figure. Sean Connery's wax likeness is also quite unsettling, as is Rowan Atkinson's expressive Mr. Bean figure.
But out of all the wax figures, Noel Edmonds' is the one that gives us the most chills. And let's not even get started on the one that looks like Noel Fielding's long-lost cousin. It's clear that the creators of these wax figures had a Beatles wig leftover, as it was used for both Posh Spice and one of the members of the famous band.
And finally, we have a wax figure of the "Sexiest Man Alive" in 2015, David Beckham. But unfortunately, this version of him is far from sexy. On a brighter note, the Blackpool version of the museum had Peter Andre himself unveil his own wax figure, which surprisingly turned out to be one of the better ones.
But we'll leave you with the one that was probably meant to be in a museum in Amsterdam but got mixed up on the way. It's safe to say that these wax figures are not a true representation of the celebrities they are meant to portray. But hey, at least they're giving us some good laughs and scary stories to tell.
