8 Things You Didn't Know About Rey Mysterio

8. He's A Kraniophiliac

No, it's not a weird sexual fetish involving large wading birds (that'd be grudiaphilia, obviously). Like his lucha libre buddy La Parka, Rey Mysterio is fascinated by skeletons, and in particular skulls, his interest characterised by a couple of tattoos on his left calf, not to mention his numerous attires incorporating osseous motifs.

A devout Catholic, Mysterio explained his morbid interest as being a constant reminder of his human mortality, and the importance of never taking things in life for granted. He explained in greater detail in his autobiography:

It's a Mexican thing. In Mexico, All Hallows Day and All Souls' Day are celebrated, a period of time during which children who have died are celebrated. It's a big deal in Mexico.

See? Not weird in the slightest.
