Traditionally Janus’ look from war to peace. Janus is the god of doorways, reminding you, every time you pass, of the journey from one extreme to another. This Janus looks from evil to the illusion of normalcy. It is taken from Bundy’s execution photo, where his skull is exposed from the electric chair. This is the termination of his evil actions, and he looks from the goat horned symbol of evil to the abyss of the afterlife. In the end he is a normal man, so this evil faces that mortality and is forced to serve as a reminder to others.

A psychopomp to guide Theresa back to the primordial ocean. There in the cosmos she can be rejuvinated and heal. Taken from a crime scene photo.
A psychopomp for one who needs to rest. The death photograph of Marilyn Monroe is used to transfer her essence to the next world through the occult tradition of mark making. Her body reconstructed is then disbursed into the ether, to regain another life or move on to the next reality.
