(CNN)In a field in Williamsburg, Virginia, a ghostly army of U.S. presidents appears buried chest-deep, as if caught in a nightmarish quicksand.
George Washington's nose -- or what's left of it -- struggles to stay attached to his crumbling concrete face. Stains streak from his dead eyes like tears. The back of his head is a battered mess of exposed metal rods.
Welcome to intriguing remains of America's Presidents Park, the failed museum where visitors once walked among 43 eerily lifelike busts of the nation's leaders.
More than five years after the sculpture park closed, its hefty 20ft presidents remain clustered together on Howard Hankins' nearby farm.
The concrete businessman, who helped build the original sculpture park, couldn't bear to see the stony-faced men destroyed when the tourist attraction closed in 2010, and instead moved them to his own property.
He now hopes to restore the busts to their former glory and exhibit them in a new museum -- which would also feature President Barack Obama and previous First Ladies.
