Default Wall Crack advice

Hi, I was hoping for some advice on a crack I have in my bedroom. I
had my room plastered a few months ago and a crack has re-appeared so
I chipped out the loose plaster and filled it but it doesn't seem to
go away. The house is over 100 years old so my question is not about
should I be worried by the crack but simply some advice on what you
would do if you have a crack in your room which you wanted to hide so
that the finish looks better.

I was thinking of putting a unit in the corner with something like a
mirror on top, but was also of thinking about turning the corner of
the room into a focal point by put a couple of strips of patterned
paper or something along those lines up covering the cracks.

So really there is two questions, is there a way to definitely get rid
of a crack, if not what would you suggest to hide it so the rooms
finish is not spoiled by it??
