Why so scary?: Unstoppable evil

After being described as "pure evil" by your psychiatrist, it's likely that you're going to be the frightening type. Add a mask to the mix and the resulting panicked reaction is inevitable!

Following 'Halloween', killers in masks became very much en vogue and few slasher movies these days would be without some sort of mask making an appearance.
