Autopsies in general bug me out, but the extraterrestrial autopsy diorama sold by Etsy artisan Specimen 7 called 'Specimen Box No 1 Specimen No 98: Gork' is beyond words. The shop's schtick is that they purchased these items from Charles Ellis' second wife's estate. The aforementioned Specimen No 98: Gork is an unfinished autopsy inside a cigar box. Charming!
Check out more shots of Gork above, and keep clicking for other odd dioramas and extraterrestrial art.
Implications - During the sale of Mrs. Edna Lee Ellis' estate, who passed in 2008, thousands of preserved bodies were found in the basement. While much of her husband Charles' research is popularly conceived as a hoax, there is no explanation for these eerie and shiver-inducing findings.
