src: bh-s2.azureedge.net

Shaye Saint John is a fictional character and art project who appears in a series of surrealist, campy short films. Saint John, created by Eric Fournier, was described with a backstory claiming she was a supermodel disfigured in a car accident, who rebuilt her body with a collection of mannequin parts. Her website was taken down when Fournier died but exists in archives.

Shaye Saint John

The character of Shaye Saint John is described as a "model", and is shown in videos wearing a plastic mask, a series of wigs and dresses, and manipulating wooden hands on sticks. She is described as having been in a major car accident which resulted in the loss of her arms and legs. Instead of using prosthetics, she added mannequin parts to her face and, added wooden hands so no one could see her badly deformed hands. Saint John wears a series of masks throughout her videos, supposedly because she doesn't want anyone to see what she really looks like. Creator Eric Fournier has said "It's really bad, that's why she wears the mask".

In 2003, the character started a blog at LiveJournal. A YouTube channel named Elastic Spastic Plastic Fantastic was created on 30th August 2006 and uploaded all 56 of the 'Shaye' videos in 2006-2007. The official channel was discontinued and cancelled on December 22, 2017.

Safe and Sane

In 2016 there is a new channel called Safe and Sane who may supposedly be the real Shaye. As theories suggest that Eric was just the cameraman/creator of Shaye not the actor so this new channel may be the real Shaye but it has not been confirmed yet
