This photo often appears on social media accompanied by the claim that it shows a human corpse hung up like a scarecrow.
Marrow also posted images of the scarecrow on themessage board in March 2012, adding a backstory that probably provided fodder for the meme:
This poor fellow trespassed on the wrong farmer’s property. He was beaten and tied to a scarecrow post with barbed wire, a burlap sack over his head, and left to die. He was still alive and conscious when the crows started to peck at him…Thanks so much everyone! I really appreciate the awesome feedback!
Q: Is there a how-to on your blog? I know that many of the techniques you used have probably already been presented somewhere or another; but I always like seeing how individual creations are made. No how-tos as of yet. I first learnt to make this stuff from SpookyBlue’s amazing tutorials, and I’ve just been experimenting with different hands, ribcages and so on.Built from scratch. Newspaper and masking tape.
