Hello again… Here today we just have a new video showing the Devil Face mask and also a White GhostFace mask off the same mask mold.. Basically we see the New Devil Face and White PU Plastic masks are off the same molds as the 25th Silver Chrome Anniversary Masks… also talked about is the EU Stamp Mask, as its getting harder and harder to find now… I will let the video do the rest… see below..
Skele-Face Review… on receiving the new Skele-Face i decided to review that too… See below……
Well… here we are again, Right before the Halloween season gets ‘briefly’ started (In the USA), as for the UK, well its not until at least the end of September that we see Halloween related items over here on display!
Anyway, the main title of this news post was about Devil Face and Skele-Face masks, so, what’s the latest on the Devil Face? or Skele-Face? …
Well anyone who follows my Twitter ‘may’ have seen that i tweeted RJ Torbert about this in late July! I basically asked what was going on with those mask types? Would we be seeing them? and would we see them just this year or again in the future… RJ simply responded saying that they were NOT moving forward with them… the mask type i specifically asked about was Devil Face, but did that mean the Skele-Face was the same?? … I awaited an answer through an email to RJ.. but nothing came straight back… I think he was teasing us, as he likes to with other GhostFace related news in the past and even now still with the cryptic tweets he continues to put up!
Then RJ (in his true style) sent me the below text! TODAY!!!
FUN WORLD PROUD TO ANNOUNCE
SKELEFACE AND DEVIL FACE will be sold TO
AND A NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT SPECIALTY STORES ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
WILL BE SOLD SEPARATELY AND AS PART OF THE GHOST FACE DELUXE ASSORTMENT
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
R.J.
My response to this was good, but the BURNING Question that WOULD come from other fans as well as myself was….
Will the UK STILL GET SOME??? RJ’s answer was… As of now, PALMER AGENCIES will get some, to distribute. They are on twitter.
So, needless to say i have left a message with ‘Palmers Agencies’ to see if we can find out who is going to be getting those masks, as soon as i have a response i will update this post!
THANKS TO RJ TORBERT for giving me this update and letting me be the first to spread the news, many fans saw the tweet (pictured) and was disappointed, and even wondered if Skele-Face was going to be cancelled too… but now you know the latest! They ARE coming!

METALLICS! Last night another huge fan of GhostFace (‘Stillscreaminginmichigan’, Tim), decided to head out to his local Savers store and see what was about, he came across, Ultra Whites and NEW METALLICS, just the same as last year, but this time, the Green mask has had a colour change! , Well its shade anyway, now sporting a lovely bright almost STAB-Like GREEN!!!
When asking RJ about the Green Metallic he simply said, ‘Yes, We wanted it brighter‘….
I often have a look around ebay to see what may, or may not be for sale, but this time a familiar version has popped its head up! And for once, IT STILL HAS ITS LOA!! ( Letter of Authenticity from RJ Torbert! )… Yes, we have a very nice looking SCREAM 4 Production Run mask, as stated in its LOA it is one of 26 made…
CLICK HERE to go to the ebay auction page!!! Something tells me that this price will climb a lot and as usual we WILL see last minute bids trying to obtain it!! Definitely a rare piece and one ANY fan would love to have in their growing collections!
Well, here we are again. this time closer to the awaited date… Yes, the GhostFace Enamel pins are close.. May the 18th is the official day you can order your box set. Types include, a Bleeding mask, a STAB – Motion green mask, a glow mask, and a Silver chrome mask, and a GhostFace spoof’ mask as seen in Scary Movie… So many variants there…
During the last couple of months i have had more contact and also contact with a chap called Aaron, Who’s Aaron? … Well he is the man that runs the Cavity Colors website, and recently he has personally worked with RJ Torbert, i was put in touch with him by RJ and then it went from there.. i interviewed him in relation to these new pins, and what was said after that is below… Enjoy!
WHAT prompted you to do the GHOST FACE item ?
GHOST FACE is a cultural icon, not only in horror, but in the world of pop culture in general. Besides the fame attached to it because it’s adorned by the killers in the SCREAM franchise, it’s one of the most haunting Halloween masks to exist, and it strikes a nostalgic chord with myself and many many others. I remember trick or treating as a kid in the 90’s, and seeing so many people running around in full GHOST FACE attire. Hell, I even did it one year. It just brings back memories.
How has it been working with FUN WORLD, and I assume you worked with R.J. how was that experience?
It’s been great! R.J. is very responsive and open to our concepts. We understand how iconic the image of GHOST FACE is, so we wanted to make sure we captured that in our pin designs. We wanted to create very straight-forward, classy pin designs that could be worn by practically anyone who loves the Icon of Halloween® :
How close did you work with him ?
He handles all things GHOST FACE, so he’s been involved every step of the way. We didn’t have to make too many changes along the way, just some minor things. I think those suggestions made them look even better in the long run, so we’re pretty damn happy with all the pins and the packaging.
WHERE do you plan on selling the goods ?
Exclusively on our site, CAVITYCOLORS.COM
Will there be ‘Collector editions’?
The “COLLECTORS BOX” contains 5 pins attached to a backing card, and placed inside a high quality jewelry box with the GHOST FACE logo printed in Metallic on top. You’ll only be able to own the exclusive Slider Stab pin, the Metallic Metal pin, and the infamous SPOOF face by purchasing the collectors box. Our plan is to also release other color variants outside of the box later in this summer, and into the Fall.
What are your goals with this and where do you plan on selling these?
We went into this hoping to create the ultimate collectible enamel pins for GHOST FACE fans and pin collectors alike, while also keep them classy and clean enough to wear on a dinner date, or a horror convention 🙂
We wanted them to appeal to everyone, not just horror fans. GHOST FACE is so universal, so we didn’t want it to feel too much like another horror pin. We think fans of the mask and collectors will dig em!
Where are they being made?
Our manufacturing details are top secret. Mostly outerspace.
Do you have any images to share? (Can GhostFace.co.uk have the honor of showing them first? , as long as RJ says its ok)
I’d like to keep the actual images under wraps until a little bit closer to the release date, which is most likely end of April / early May. We can hit it full force with promotion around that time.
How did you get started in this business?
Back in the early 2000’s, during the hayday of Myspace, I was designing merchandise for a lot of bands in the heavy metal / hardcore genre, and just eventually got burnt out designing stuff for other people, and chasing down payments for the same recycled T-shirt design ideas over and over again. I decided to create my own shirt designs and sell them to friends locally and online. From there, it kinda of grew from making 20 shirts, to 50 shirts, to now hundreds. We have customers from all over the world. Australia, United Kingdom, Japan, etc. It’s pretty insane. Within the past 2 years, we’ve expanded into acquiring licenses to create official merchandise for some of our favorite films, such as EVIL DEAD 2, THE FOG, RE-ANIMATOR, NIGHTBREED, and more. We’re also creating official products for icons like ROB ZOMBIE, and even a line of products for ELVIRA. Lot’s of big stuff on the horizon!
How long?
We’ve been a full time, family owned brand since 2012.
Any other future projects?
We’re already in talks with R.J. about doing some other official, never before seen GHOST FACE items. Fingers crossed! I think they’ll be awesome!
Well, there we go, from the man himself, Aaron Crawford.. of Cavity Colors… Fans can head over to their site by clicking the Small banner above or the larger image below.
Well… after looking through Fun World’s catalog section on their site i see what it is coming out this year in full (so to speak)… Not only do we get the Masks of the NEW Devil Face and Skele Face, but of course there will be Costume versions too! It also looks like retailers will be able to order a mask box selection, which contain GhostFace masks, Devil Face masks, and the Skele Face mask too… also there in the ‘Accessories’ section are pumpkin carving kits.. Read about more by visiting the Fun World site, Click the banner above!
Well, Its that time of year again.. January, which means for Fun World that its a busy time, in part due to the Halloween Party Expo Show which they have attended for a long time, and every time they go they have the biggest booth! RJ Torbert always takes a few pictures and shares them as the show progresses… some are below.. Whilst GhostFace does appear it wasn’t until someone posted on a Scream & GhostFace collectors group that i saw some different GhostFace merchandise, as well as a couple of other related ‘FACE’ named items… ‘Skele-Face’ and ‘Devil Face’… (Although the Red ‘Devil Face’ GhostFace Mask IS in one of RJ’s Pictures) Fan ‘Alex Jones’ posted a picture up that his brother had sent to him who was attending the event.. We see a Red Devil GhostFace, and the Skele-Face.. Pictured below…
Picture Credits: First 11 images from RJ Torbert. The Next 11 image of GhostFace Masks Pictures by Sam Jones, Brother of a known fan among groups, Alex Jones. (Scream and GhostFace Fan).
Well, as Halloween nears again fans have been commenting about the new ’25 Year GhostFace mask’.. as in, WHERE IS IT??? WHERE IS IT BEING SOLD?! I cant find it on Costume sites!!
Well, it seems that the fact of the mask being more of a Collector’s Piece has put off some retailers, which is daft really because with it being made ONLY in 2016 you would think that fans would be looking for this all over the place, but the normal sellers actually DONT have it ordered.. which has made some fans worry about HOW and WHERE they can get it.. Well, dont worry, because theres some Answers here..
The Mask does also come in Child and Adult Costumes.. Its THOUGHT to be the same size mask in both. (To be Confirmed).
So, where or how can fans in different countries obtain a mask? … See Below..
USA fans can find the Masks in…
Savers (Also Metallics will be in there)
Goodwill Stores
And also contact ‘ Erwin Distributing ‘ Who may be able to tell you more info
UK Fans
Palmer Agencies based in Belfast are the main UK Distributor, Info could be gotten from them maybe.
Places I KNOW THAT WILL have them are…
MadaboutHorror.co.uk (Linked on the ‘Links’ and ‘Costumes’ Page here)
On the costumes pages you will see images that link to ALL Scream/GhostFace items they sell.. (Always being added to)
The ‘Costumes’ page DOES HAVE an image link there to PRE ORDER the Silver 25 Year Mask (Deposit of £5 Required)
MadaboutHorror.co.uk WILL SHIP TO USA FANS IF NEED BE… But you have to take into account that in some cases the postage may cost more than the mask purchase itself !
Karnival House Costumes.. (Also linked to on the same pages, although NO PRE ORDER links are on the site over there yet??)
Any Australian Fans?
Well you can find out more info on the availability of the Silver mask via CostumeBox Website im told.
(There is NO item listed as of yet, but i suggest to contact them anyway and see what info they have)
I recently made a quick video below.. that covers this topic/article
UPDATE: Many fans have been to ‘Savers/Value Village’ Stores and NOT SEEN the Silver Chrome mask displayed… I have been told to advise fans to ASK FOR THE MASK, as it may not be out on display yet..
I STRONGLY advise that you CALL the nearest store to you first and save yourself the fuel if the Silver Masks are not there for whatever reason.. Question it first.. Then go in if you get the answer you want.
Also.. Regarding Goodwill’ Stores… Some fans tell me that their ‘Goodwill’ is actually a THRIFT STORE.. so will they have the masks? Answer: Not sure.. all i can advise is to maybe contact your local store first and ask if that mask is on the way in to the stores stock, or even out on display somewhere..
When i first put this article up some fans questioned about ‘Goodwill’ stores having the Silver masks, because they thought the store only sold donated items, i then contacted RJ Torbert and he told me that the store chain had been purchasing many a Fun World product for years… so there you have it.. NOT only a store that sells donated items only.. they do sell NEW merchandise too.
Well… here we are with yet another headline… and this time it was an unexpected one… A Company called Fright-Rags has been making some new items on the form of T-Shirts that feature GhostFace! No wonder RJ is always busy!!… It seems we dont just have one or two to choose from either… We have styles of ‘Tank top’ .. T-Shirt, and even what the Americans call a ‘Baseball Tee’… Every design features GhostFace too..
( One version glows in the dark, listed as V1 – ‘T Shirt’ and ‘Baseball Tee’ in the images below )
Click the top image here to go to the Fright-Rags site! The T-Shirts go for sale on July 27th! Fright-Rags think these will go quick.. and so do i… As my old work mate used to say… GET ON IT !!

April 19th UPDATE : GOOD NEWS FOR UK FANS….AND OTHER COUNTRIES NO DOUBT.. !
After speaking to the main UK distributor i was put in touch with another site who had also expressed an interest in ordering the Silver Ghostface mask.. after a phone call i discovered someone who had the same goals as me with regards to GhostFace masks and getting the particular types that we wouldn’t normally be able to find easily in the UK… types like the Metallic’s, 25 yr Silver version, TV Series types.. and whatever else may be attainable.. the website that you can get in touch with has been newly added on my links page very recently.. its ‘Madabouthorror.co.uk’…. Click image below..
I STRONGLY suggest if you are a UK fan (Or even a fan in another country) who wants the 25 year Ghostface type then get in touch with them asap…
The link on the image below takes you straight to the Silver GhostFace masks page there..
Its also a possibility that ‘Karnival-House’ (linked on the Costumes page) may be getting some newer merchandise too for masks..
PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THAT IF YOU ARE A FAN IN ANOTHER COUNTRY THEN SHIPPING MAY COST MORE THAN THE MASK’S VALUE.. BUT THEN AGAIN IF YOU LOVE GHOSTFACE AS MUCH AS ME THEN YOU’LL ORDER THE MASK ANYWAY..
Mad About Horror are the UK’s leading online retailer of Horror Masks, Collectibles and Halloween Animated Props. Importers of Officially Licensed products from Ghoulish Productions, Trick or Treat Studios and other top US design studios. Stockists of Halloween Masks of the most popular Movies and TV Shows from around the world.
Well.. here we are again… ever since fans knew the 25th Anniversary Silver mask was on its way i have had loads of questions from many of them, on the site contact link here.. and via Social media on Facebook.. and all of them ask the same thing! Including myself!
When is the mask coming out exactly? …… How much will it be? …. Is the UK getting it too?……
Well the answers are still vague… i can only ASSUME that its going to be out for Halloween, because RJ Torbert told me people should be ordering NOW… and 2016 is the ONLY year these versions will be made.
And with retailers ordering now, its seems pretty obvious its in time for Halloween.
Cost… Well, its still unknown at this time.. whether its a U.S Dollar price, or a UK price.. or any other countries price.. We dont know.. I spoke with a distributor and even they are awaiting more info..
WHO is getting it?
Well, USA is more or less always the main country to seek newer GhostFace merchandise whether its an anniversary mask or a Metallic mask.. its always heavily ordered in its home country.
What about the UK?…. Good question, well i asked RJ Torbert this on the phone a very short while ago, and he basically said.. ‘if its ordered it will be made..’ he then advised me to get to any shops i know who have GhostFace items and see if they are ordering any.. so go to your local fancy dress or novelties store and get asking.. as i say above… NOW is the time retailers are ordering… so get to a store you know that maybe has stocked GhostFace in the past and get asking.. maybe even try ASDA again if you are in the UK..
ASDA haven’t done any GhostFace items since 2013 but you never know… if its in demand, it sells..
SCREAM TV Series mask..
Well it seems from looking at Fun World’s website that whoever wants the TV Series masks and merchandise that there are newer items added in the range this year.. CLICK HERE to see them!
NEW GhostFace items?
Well i suggest you check out the link HERE… and maybe look through some downloadable items on Fun Worlds page… you can see what retailers have a choice of… I did also hear that the Metallic GhostFace masks should be back in ‘Savers’ again this year too.. 😉
Until next time… (or when more info comes) ill catch you later.
Tim (GhostFace)
