What they say about the her horn: (from newsbizarre.com)

"HENAN, China- A 101-year-old Chinese woman from the small village of Linlou has a bizarre growth from her forehead liked to that of a devil's horns.

Great grandmother Zhang Ruifang said she discovered a small growth on her forehead just over a year ago, but never imagined it could grow to such a large shape and size.

The horn like growth on the left side of Zhang Ruifang's forehead measures around six centimeters in length and continue to grow.

The son of Zhang Ruifang, 60-year-old Zhang Guozheng said: "Now something is also growing on the right side of her forehead. It’s quite possible that it’s another horn.”

Reports said the bizarre Zhang Ruifang horn was most likely to be a "Cutaneous horn." A Cutaneous horn is a clinical diagnosis referring to a conical projection above the surface of the skin that resembles a miniature horn, usually experienced in some elderly people around the world."
