A new study reports a rare condition, prosopometamorphopsia, where a 58-year-old man sees faces in real life as demonic but normally on screen. Researchers from Dartmouth College digitally altered images to represent the 'demonic' distortions. The patient's experience with the condition helped researchers visualize the demonic distortions he sees when looking at human faces.
