Did you know that the design of ghostface mask actually came from a costume kit called alterian ghost factory that was released in 1990 that pre dates the original friendly faces mask by 2 years. It was a diy ghost costume kit that had a set of different faces that you had to paint and glue to a bed sheet. There were originally seen in the ghost factory kit but later made into friendly faces line that fun world produced and made into normal halloween masks. The mask that became ghostface was originally called the wailer in the ghost factory kit. It's very obscure and rare and the guy who made it actually pitched it to fun world i don't remember what happened but fun world used the guy's designs to make the friendly faces masks. They recently found a kit from the 1990 but it was one of the other masks that were apart of it and recently there are fans making fan made replica kits in case you want to make a ghostface wailer costume. There's a video about it by drowned boy productions explaining the true origin and history of the mask. You should check out.

Definitely an iconic suit. And one of my favorites of any slasher, very simple but very effective.

I too remember seeing the original ghostface masks in thrift stores back when the first movie came out. They were dirt cheap too; not so much anymore

7:00 The Buck 120 is still in production. I got one new last year. It's the best knife I've ever owned.

So simple yet so ICONIC because we view it as its own character and don’t really envision the character that’s supposed to be under there! 😱

I am so happy to see Douglas getting a shout out like that, he is THE scream/Ghostface guy

One of our go to movies during the late 90`s. Me and the boys made a lot of scream inspired movies back then. We had several home made masks made out of paper or cardboard before we got our hands on the real one. I bought the buck hunting knife later in 1999 for about 800nok (81 dollars) and still have it and the mask+costume in our collection to this day. Great piece of history~

I have a 1997 bleeding ghost face mask that’s still in the box

The buck 120 is actually still in production. I just bought one off of the buck website

One of my favorite youtubers shouting out one of my other favorite youtubers, awesome

Truthfully, call me cliche, but the original look just works and it's all down to one thing: The mask. Watching the Scream films, last October, what I found was the masks (though not wildly different) just felt too clean; Scream 5, especially, stood out to me because the mask looked too well-produced for what's meant to be a store-bought costume in-universe. *That's* why I love the original, it looks like a rubber mask you would get in a shop and, watching this video, it now makes perfect sense as to why. Excellent video and I will definitely check out Drowned Boy Productions videos to learn more about one of my favourite cinema slashers.

Costume and masks that are so iconic and memorable with nostalgia... Still worn by fans

Loving the frequent Scream content!

I remembered when that costume was out and sold in our local grocery store. And when Scream came out I laughed a bit remembering seeing it at the store.

The actual ghost face is based on the old famous Edvard Munch oil painting called “The Scream”

Such a good video. Your content just keeps getting better and better

I didn't think I'd see CosplayChris and DrownedBoyProductions in the same video. wtf I'm so happy

My favorite look of ghostface is the in 1996 scream the best look of ghostface amazing video

I remember this mask as a kid before Scream got big and sweet Jesus I was so scared of this mask. I have no idea why, but the mask itself is so haunting and powerful, it stuck with me for years to the point I was too afraid to even watch Scream for years. Of course I got over it, but it haunted me for years. Ah, Millennial trauma.

0:14 sweet, Twin Peaks is on!

Yeah I was 6 years old when scream came out and my brother who was a senior in high school took me with his friends to see it. I didn't sleep for 3 months and avoided the basement at all cost.

Hey shouts out Douglas Little! His channel is my main go to for scream and Ghostface collecting

Well done with the video, Drownedboyproductions is awesome lad to talk too

Glad I found your channel!! 🙌🙌

This is crazy. I used to watch you years ago when you would upgrade action figures and such. Now you’re into horror that’s sick. Can’t wait to see your work on the ghost face mask.

Really enjoy these types of videos Chris! And love that outro! " Ill be right back! " Classic!

This is interesting. I do remember E.U. having masks that looked HELLA like the 'Scream' masks , but a decade before .I just picked one up from the mid 80,s .

This came out 3 years before I was born, but it’s still my favorite slasher. I even dressed as him last Halloween. Shi was so fun 😂🔥

the boots have recently been found to be reebok boks no exact model has been found yet though

I love the Michael Myers mask in the back. I was so close to being in the movie Halloween kills and Ends I auditioned 6X I definitely thought I got a part because David Gordon Green really liked me. My dad actually do the producer Mustafaa Akkad in Syria, but I didn’t want to name drop. Anway I flew back and forth from Detroit to Wilmington, North Carolina on my own dime. That’s what you do when you believe in yourself put it on a credit card lol I remember watching the first streaming theaters. It was a half a day at school. I think it was during Christmas break or something I couldn’t sit with the cool kids, but I remembered I kept saying to myself that one day I’m going to be on the big screen thankfully it’s starting to happen. ❤ I love your channel. Keep up the great work brother.

The Buck 120s are very readily-available here in the US where Buck is based. Not sure if they import to Australia, though. Worth checking out for sure if possible

This video is what I call quality content (tnks for making a vid of my fav franchise)

Fantastic video mate, really enjoyed it

Mathew did wear the costume for Stab 8. Flame thrower chrome GhostFace.

Still, last Halloween mask is the best in history of horror.

Wow man I can’t believe how young you are it’s craziness I was there opening night at the theatre and I was 20 years old when I watched Scream and I was overwhelmingly happy for Wes Craven because I knew he had another monster hit on his hands and I’ve loved it ever since. I actually have a 1996 robe custom made by John Gritton who was recommended by the one and only Cynthia Bergstrom as to somebody that could replicate her original design really well. Definitely already following Douglas he does have a fantastic channel as well. I was lucky enough to buy a fearsome faces gen 1 when it first came out and I still have it to this day as well as a generation 2 fearsome from the full costume I bought later that year. And hell yeah I remember when the masks hit the shelves I could’ve bought 100 of them back then if only we knew then what we know now lol but it is one of the few stories where I really won being a horror fan by getting a few copies and keeping them in great shape all of these years. So often you come across something you had when you were a kid that’s worth a fortune and impossible to find now, but in this case I lucked out. I started typing this before I finished your video and holy shit you actually have a quote from John himself! Thank you so much for validating my ghostface cosplay I’ve had people say they don’t think it looks authentic and it was literally handsewn by John Gritton as I mentioned before with full praise and recommendation from Cynthia Bergstrom herself. I’m extremely proud of my robe and so many people think screamrobes is the only option for something that really looks authentic. Not true 👍 thanks again for this video Chris it was awesome!

I picked up the mask right after the movie came out and still have it hanging on my book shelf today . It freaks my kids out all the time when they walk by it, forgetting its there starting out at you !!! I would love to pick up the Buck 120 tbo. I might have to get myself a late Christmas gift 😁🙃

That’s it I’m going as Ghostface this Halloween.

Best costume ever. Ive spoken to both Cynthia bergstrom and Nate and Doug Ragon about the robe. The masks were always common knowledge but the robe nothin was known for years. It was never on the market for sale it was always that cheap funworld crap one. It only came about in early to Mid 2000s when people tried making them, then all the info started comin out about who has them now etc. the scream 1 robe theres almost no pics online. Because the owner corey hersh is stingy with it. The s23&4 robes theres pics everywhere and video reviews and comparisons bt the s1 original has been kept in secrecy or just forgotton about

The same thing happened to me. Scream traumatized me at 12 years old for weeks but now I love these movies but it's still difficult for me to watch the beginning of the first.

Dead by Daylight Ghostface outfit is sick as hell in my opinion.

Holy crap! I have that knife in my garage. I've had it since the 90s and never realized it was used in movies. I used to take it with me camping.

Awesome suit and an awesome video! I’ve got a cool cosplay idea that I’d love to see you do. If you’re a fan of the movie Jingle All The Way then you should do a Turbo Man suit, always wanted to see a real one

The last and the ultimate horror movies icon, for many reasons. The 90s were the last decade having its own memorable killer after Mike Myers in the 70s and Jason/Freddie/Chucky in the 80s. Funworld's 25th Anniversary mask is really good, but the robe is too expensive and not worth it in my opinion. The mask + some good quality grim reaper cape with jagged edges and you're good to go, unless it's for display. Knife: the Buck 119 "Special" is just fine, same design. Then again i've never done cosplay, just a huge Ghostface fan

9 years old watching a horror movie like Scream, that is disturbing. I was an adult when I saw it and I thought it was too raw and rough for that generation.

I remember these masks at pic n save when I was kid. My little brother had one for his Halloween costume at school then a year or two later Scream comes out with the cheesy cheap mask my brother wore in elementary school. I’ve never seen it as anything more than the pic n save mask. Haha

The shoes were from Payless I remember because I tried to guess the killer based on the shoes in the bathroom stall.....and then when the chief smashes his cigarette with his foot......i remember me thinking "hey those boots look like mine that I got a Payless"!

So cool!

Good news! They produce the Buck 120 again (and have been for about a year).

Ghost Face's costume reminds me of the murderer in 'The Red Queen Kills 7 Times'..

Loved this Chris, and I hope this is only the beginning of more Ghost Face content from you. Any chance you want to take a *stab* at a Scream 6 Cosplay video? 😉

They actually do still sell buck 120 knives and I think they are on Amazon

Crazy for me ,, I remember this mask like 5 years before the movie ever came out ,, crazy how a random cheap mask , picked at random ,, would be a icon like this lol

Before the rap group wu tang clan member went by the ghost face moniker in 1993. Ghostface killer was the villain in a Kung fu movie titled the mystery of chess boxing (1979)

Love this breakdown!

Ahh so that’s why you followed him !

I always thought the outfit and mask was inspired by the giggling green ghosts from the old scooby doo show. similar draped cloaks and the faces are similar too. I wonder if that may be the case for the original mask itself

it's weird that my most favorite ghostface isn't even canon in the movies his name is DANNY JOHNSON and his costume is also my most favorite

5:35 I'm glad they went with a black cloak. the white cloak and white hood would look hella suspect and gotten associated with you know who.. :P

When I was a kid the costume was called "The Father of Death" then it was rebranded.

buck 120s are not discontinued lol

I've seen so many of those boots at walmart

I haven't long bought a buck 120, I bought it the day after scream 6 was released I had to get one, bought a prop one before it and thought i gotta get a real one now 😂

I was watching a video that said the og creator was exploring an abandoned house and he saw the mask on the wall in the attic

Seen it on my 13th Birthday, just when it came out. Same day my former girlfriend gave me guitar lessons. I was playing One by Metallica half of the day😅 Good times.

I wish I could find the fantastic faces mask from the original film for a good price. On ebay, there's not many, and the ones on there are very expensive. I own a knb mask by burkbench designs.

My Grandad when I was little wore a Scream mask once for Halloween he was outside pitch black and my family was just like look outside the window and all I could see was Ghostface and he came inside I hit him right on the head with a Lightsaber and my family will forever have that against me 😂 miss my Grandad and I have got the mask still today.

Scream is a horror classic next to A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween and Friday the 13th.

Hey chris I have a request on which batman to weather next. 2 you may have been looking at. The McFarlane vampire batman and the kingdom come. Just a suggestion. Would be cool to watch. Much love

I really want a good quality robe

Seeing Chucky behind you makes me worry 😮

Buck still makes the 120 knives. And the smaller 119

I love the costume but I would like to see an updated costume. Mask will stay the same but the suit different. Like in left for dead.

Yep, I would.

I need a reshaping tutorial so badly, my FunWorld masks arrived so messed up

They are selling for $400 USD on EBay

Casey Becker she scream queene

5:30 I was under the impression that the all white outfit was nixed because someone thought it looked too much like a klan robe

6:30 it’s cool info but I swear I’m so happy the costume is black & not white, especially now, I also don’t believe the character would be nearly as loved if it was all white, but this isn’t the full story behind that mask as it originally started as a painting

I always thought they didn't use the white robe cuz it resembled a clan robe and it was hard keeping the robes clean cuz the fake blood would stain them

Scream is the greatest horror movie franchise in history and I will die on this hill. In my opinion it’s the only horror franchise with no bad movies. Even the worst one “3” is an okay movie, I wouldn’t call it bad

I have my father's Buck hunting knife that looks very close to the GhostFace knife if you want me to send pics of it as a reference let me know.

The link to Drowned Boy Productions doesn't work btw

Simple is more.

It’s actually the Buck 119 and its still made

I had "bullshit, that mask wasn't created for the movie" cued up and ready to go, Some of these "did you know" vids on KZfaq have people just plain making shit for their videos! I remember when my mom's friend rented this movie when it came out on video and about 20 minutes in I was thinking "wait a minute, I have this costume" and went upstairs to my toy box and pulled out the mask and cloak that came with the "no face" costume put it on grabbed a rubber bowie knife, shut the breaker off to the living room and scared the shit out of everyone! Had that costume for years before and after the scream trilogy was done!

The first time seeing scream gave me nightmares for years and I always though that when I walked past a dark area he was gonna pop out. Even though it was very difficult I kicked his ass

Scream 6 Mask for the next Custom Collectable vid? Eh? Eh??

Scream 6 look

Do michael myers costume next

without the ghostface mask the original movie wouldnt have done well imo

Actually knife is still in being made

I have a picture of the boots lol

I remember Laughing my Ass Off when I saw that Stupid costume. First thing out of my mouth was "SERIOUSLY, DUDE??" "We're Supposed to be Afraid of THAT??" It Literally looked like a Half Melted MARSHMALLOW MAN!!🤣

in the scream universe wouldn't that mask be banned by now after all these murders?

What happened with your IG account?

Scream 1996 and the boots was blown Reeth bok bok work boots nate ragon made a video on it you got the brad being on but the colour was brown just help you I have a par there not the same as the one but there reebok bok work boot there brown

I regret buying one back in the day before the Scream IP.

5:35 not true they intended on making the robe all white but thought it would be controversial since it would look like the KKK
