Skull of Yorick

This antique afterimage illusion is based on the skull of Yorick that is exhumed as part of Shakespeare's Hamlet. The idea is that by staring at the cross at the center of the image for 30 seconds and then glancing at a light colored surface you can see the skull image or 'Ghost of Yorick' in front of your very eyes.
