If you came into contact with someone with a face that looked like a demon and eyes that were completely black as night, what would you do? Encounters of this nature are popping up on social media at the exact same time that the mainstream media is trying really hard to convince all of us that anyone that is seeing black-eyed demon faces has a “disorder”. In fact, if you type “demon face” into Google News, you will literally get hundreds of articles about a disorder known as prosopometamorphopsia. But this is a very, very rare disorder. At this point, less than 100 cases of PMO have ever been documented.

So why are they making such a big deal out of this “disorder” all of a sudden?
All of the news stories about this “disorder” focus on one 59-year-old man from Clarksville, Tennessee named Victor Sharrah. The following comes from NBC News…
Victor Sharrah had always had sharp vision. But one life-altering day in November 2020, he noticed out of the blue that people’s faces around him looked demonic.
Their ears, noses and mouths were stretched back, and there were deep grooves in their foreheads, cheeks and chins.
“My first thought was I woke up in a demon world,” said Sharrah, 59, of Clarksville, Tennessee. “You can’t imagine how scary it was.”
I completely believe him.
What Victor Sharrah is experiencing definitely sounds like a very real disorder.
After he was tested, he was formally diagnosed with prosopometamorphopsia…
Someone he knew taught visually impaired people and suggested he might have prosopometamorphopsia, or PMO. The extremely rare neurological disorder of perception causes faces to appear distorted in shape, size, texture or color. Sharrah felt the symptoms were a match, and he was formally diagnosed last year.
I have no doubts that he has PMO.
But this is supposed to be a very, very rare disorder. According to People Magazine, only 81 cases have ever been confirmed…
The disorder is so rare that according to one 2021 report, only 81 cases have been recorded.
You are far more likely to be struck by lightning than you are to have a case of PMO.
So why are they making such a big deal out of this?
It is almost as if some outlets are trying to suggest that many of their readers could have this condition too.
For example, the following comes from a ScienceDaily article entitled “If faces look like demons, you could have this extraordinary condition”…
“We’ve heard from multiple people with PMO that they have been diagnosed by psychiatrists as having schizophrenia and put on anti-psychotics, when their condition is a problem with the visual system,” says senior author Brad Duchaine, a professor of psychological and brain sciences and principal investigator of the Social Perception Lab at Dartmouth.
“And it’s not uncommon for people who have PMO to not tell others about their problem with face perception because they fear others will think the distortions are a sign of a psychiatric disorder,” says Duchaine.
“It’s a problem that people often don’t understand.”
For those that really do have prosopometamorphopsia, faces all around them look distorted.
So if the vast majority of the faces you see look completely normal and then you encounter someone with a “demon face”, that is not prosopometamorphopsia.
