Edward Drake was a 19th century man who suffered from Diprosopus, or cranial duplication. While there is some dispute to the veracity of his story, according to the 1990 book Anomalies and Curiosities of Medicine he was purported to have a second face on the back of his head that could only laugh and cry. He claimed the face spoke to him at night, and was so distressed that he killed himself at age 23. The third and fourth episodes of Freak Show feature a fictionalized Edward Mordrake.

Fanny was already happily married, however, and her $150 a week salary afforded her a comfortable lifestyle until her death at an untimely age of 32.
