A Geek Native tradition is to count down to Samhain with the 12 Masks of Halloween. Pretending it was the plan this year, we are starting with six all at once!
12 Masks of Halloween
A Halloween advent calendar? Nearly! Geek Native has, for years, counted down 12 days to Halloween by sharing a mask daily.
Why masks? Halloween has roots in ancient traditions like Samhain, where people wore masks to disguise themselves from spirits or mimic them. This practice evolved into the modern tradition of wearing costumes and masks for fun and fright.
12 Masks of Halloween #12: Gross Zombie
This latex mask presents realistic detail that no zombie would be caught dead without.
12 Masks of Halloween #11: Godzilla
We featured a Rodan mask in 2019, but never the kig kaiju himself. Surely it’s time for Godzilla!
12 Masks of Halloween #10: Steampunk Gold with Mirror
A Halloween nightmare steampunk, perhaps a distorted jumble of cogs and wires is precisely right.
12 Masks of Halloween: #9 Kill Her Goats Goatface
As the unsuspecting girls prepare for a weekend of fun and debauchery, a silent executor emerges from the surrounding woods and crashes the party.
12 Masks of Halloween: #8 Beetlejuice haunting Adam
The eighth Mask of Halloween is the face that Adam pulled. Pulled.
12 Masks of Halloween: #8 The Last of Us Clicker Mask
I’m worried about spoilers; I’m at risk, but I don’t think this mask is one. The critter is known as a Clicker.
12 Masks of Halloween: #7 Love Mecha
This love mecha, for want of a better phrase, suits conventions and expos if you’re bold, fancy dress parties and perhaps even LARPs.
12 Masks of Halloween: #6 Warpig!
Just Geek calls this both a Warpig mask and a Snaggletooth. Either way, this sculpt by Rick Fisher is impressive.
12 Masks of Halloween: #5 Digital Fish Bowl
I admit I get Bioshock Little Sister and Big Daddy vibes from this Morph Digital Dudz mask at Cazaar.
