Pay homage to Halloween with this iconic Prop Mask that has been hand-signed by legendary actor John Carpenter. This is a guaranteed conversation starter ! The Halloween Iconic Hollywood mask is the prop replica from the 1978 movie as worn by Michael Myers.

In 1978, during the making of the original Halloween, the prop department was faced with the daunting task of finding a frightening mask that the villain could wear. FOUR mask models were selected to complete Michael Myers - The finalist was a 1975 William Shatner as Captain James T. Kirk mask that was purchased for around two dollars. The Capt. Kirk mask was chosen due to its appearance of having no real facial features that could be easily made out.

The production crew removed the eyebrows and sideburns, the face was painted flat white, the hair was teased out, and the eyes were opened up and reshaped with scissors- the crew decided that it was much more creepy because it was emotionless, much like Michael himself. This became the Michael Myers mask. Since then, every mask used in the films have been modeled after this design. William Shatner admitted that for years he had no idea his likeness was used for this film. It was only during an interview that someone mentioned his mask was being used. He has since stated that he is honored by this gesture.

This Prop replica was based upon state-of-the-art three-dimensionally scans of the model from Compass International Pictures Studios Archives, combined with high end casting to develop the impeccable detail that this mask features. The result is a fantastic realism.

For when you aren't wearing it, it's protected under an optional plexiglass custom display to keep it looking pristine, ensuring protection of your investment while allowing you to fully appreciate this piece of collectible movie history.

The customized descriptive metallic plaque, in addition to the detailed finishing add to the elegant and sophisticated, gallery-quality aesthetic.

Decorate your home, business or office, with this unique piece of entertainment history!
