Alterian Ghost Factory special effects artist, Loren Gitthens designed the iconic weeping ghost know known as Ghostface for a SFX industry Halloween party in 1989. It was his take on the classic kid's costume that uses a sheet to make a ghost. This costume would inspire a line of make-your-own ghost costumes called made by The Alterian Ghost Factory. The designs of the individual ghosts would later inspire Fun World to adapt them into their Fantastic Faces ghost mask line.

From 1990, an original package insert from the Alterian Ghost Factory's Ghost Maker Kit, a line of custom ghost costume kits. This package artwork by Bill Boes is the earliest known depiction of the design know known as Ghostface.

The original ghost designs from the Alterian Ghost Factory's Ghost Maker Kit designed by special effects artists, Loren Gitthens and Chet Zar featured in the 1991 Alterian catalog brochure.

The original Ghostface mask used in Scream (1996) was 1 of 4 styles that made up Fun World's 1992 line of ghost masks, part of their Fantastic Faces line of masks, listed in their annual Halloween catalog as item #9206, an assortment of 4 "GLOW-IN-DARK GHOST MASK WITH SHROUD". All 4 designs were originally available with black and white cotton shrouds.

A complete collection of the original four Fantastic Faces ghost masks made by Fun World, listed in their catalog as item #9206 "GLOW-IN DARK GHOST MASK WITH SHROUD". The four masks were available with both black and white cotton shrouds which emulated the look and feel of the draped sheet shrouds of the Alterian Ghost Factory artists, Loren Gitthen and Chet Zar's original designs which inspired Fun World's designs. From the collection of John Louis Rothschild.

The exact type of mask Marianne Maddalena famously found while location scouting weeks before the start of the shoot for Scream (1996). A white shroud first generation Fantastic Faces Weeping Ghost mask with a FUN WORLD DIV stamp on the back of the mouth. From the collection of John Louis Rothschild.

Restored photo plate from Fun World's photography department that was used for many years as a catalog photo and packaging image used first in 1997 after the huge success of Scream.

After the phenomenal success of Scream (1996), Fun World had their factories produce more scuptures of the original design, to make more molds, to keep up with the demand for increasingly iconic mask. Collectors have identified 17 similar, but subtly distinct sculpts, all with their own character. This is a mold cheat guide created by collectors, Jo and Wade Nobile

Scream (1996)'s costume designer, Cynthia Bergstrom's restored original design sketch for the now iconic Ghostface costume. After many meetings and tests and discussions, a sparkly black lurex fabric was ultimately used for the effectively disguising costume, which completely hid the body of the person wearing it, helping the mystery plot of the film work.

A restored early image of Ghostface from the production of Scream (1996). This photo would be used on the Father Death costume package design seen on screen. Restoration by Ryan Hills.

Original first generation FUN WORLD DIV stamped Ghostface mask from Fun World's Fantastic Faces line. This is the exact version of the mask Marianne famously found location scouting for Scream (1994). Though it was a mass produced item, its use in the film led it to becoming a cultural icon.
