Actor Nicholas Cage has been all over the internet lately because of a photo of a Civil War era man who is the spitting image of Cage as you can see for yourself. Jack Mord is selling the photograph on eBay for a cool $1 million. The man in the photo apparently lived in Bristol, Tennessee and does bear a striking resemblance to the Oscar winning actor. Mord says, "personally, I believe it's him and that he is some sort of walking undead vampire, et cetera, who quickens / reinvents himself once every 75 years or so. 150 years from now, he might be a politician, the leader of a cult or a talk show host."

 Cage did star in a movie called "Vampire's Kiss", but let's not go there. One question I would have for Mord is why does the actor continue to age if he's a vampire, who don't age, at least according to legend? Bottom line, Mord is positioning himself to make a lot of money and the buzz on the internet has been amazing. By the way, the photo is supposedly a portrait of a Confederate prisoner named Lieutenant G.B. Smith and was taken in 1864 at Johnson Island prison camp somewhere

in Ohio. Whether Cage is a vampire or not, you have to admit, the resemblance is frightening.
