St. BEUNO

Christian Saint

Practitioner of decapitation reversal for his niece Winifred at Holywell in Wales

This raises a linguistic conundrum — if the word ‘beheading’ means to cut someone’s head off, what word would you use for the act of putting their head back on again?

After some thought, we humbly suggest the term ‘reheading’. And for advanced users, ‘recapitation’.
