Woman goes for baby scan and sees 'demonic skull' looking back at her

A woman says she was shocked to see a 'demonic skull' for her baby's head when she went for an ultrasound scan. Tasmin Stenhouse, 25, went for the scan in October when she was nearly five months pregnant.

A few weeks prior she had been for a private scan, but had been disappointed by the results and was hoping for a clearer image. Instead, the scan – which is usually an emotional moment for any parent-to-be – showed her baby with what looked like a demon or a skull for a head.

Tasmin, from Dunfermline, said: “It was the NHS appointment where they confirm the gender that we got the scan photo where the skull appeared. It was one of the first clear images that we’d had of her – I showed my partner and his reaction was to burst out laughing.”

The couple, who have since had the baby – a healthy tot called Jura, aged two months - said she had no demon heads or skull-like features.

“I’ve had the baby, she was born on February 12,” said Tasmin. “She doesn’t look scary – she's beautiful.”
