The REAL Secret Origin of Scream's Ghostface Mask?

A while back, I told the amazing story of how the famous “Ghostface” mask was discovered for the movie Scream.

Among the people who read that initial article was a man named Loren Gitthens, who had a fascinating story to tell about the Ghostface mask that I figured it would be worth running as an addendum to that original piece. Here’s Loren:

The face design was inspired loosely by a mask I made in 1985 that I had called “Screamer Long Jaw.”

Thanks for the story, Loren!

I don’t think that this is ever going to be something that I can classify as “True” or “False,” but I thought it was still worth sharing. So I leave it to you folks to decide what you think about this one.
