A severed head is the full or partial head of a person or animal that has been forcibly removed from the rest of the body. The process of removing one's head through violent methods is called decapitation. A head may also be removed through surgical processes as well. Once the head is separated from the body, it can provide unlimited sources of fun. You can play kickball with it, sew it onto a buddy's neck so they can have two heads, mount it on a stick, run it up a flagpole. The possibilities are endless.
In film[]
- 30 Days of Night: Vampire Marlow Roderick killed telephone technician Gus Lambert and mounted his head on a fence post outside the communications station where he worked.
- Friday the 13th Part 2: The ultimate sports enthusiast and fetishist Jason Voorhees actually kept his mother's rotting severed head and used it as part of his home decor. He had a shrine erected to his mother inside of his crappy little shack in the middle of the woods where it sat upon a table encircled by lit candles and was also accompanied by the ugly-ass sweater his mother had been wearing on the night that she died. When Jason decided to avenge her death against the woman who decapitated her, Alice Hardy, he temporarily placed his mother's head inside of her refrigerator to torment her.
