Not a Mask: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

 

 

A horror trope which has become something of a [[Dead Horse Trope]], as it's now almost always played for comedy. It involves a character seeing an ugly face and begin pulling at it, on the assumption that it's a mask. Of course, it's actually someone's face and the puller will typically be [[Horror Struck]]. Sometimes a purely comedic variation will occur with wigs if the joke is that [[Bifauxnen|a woman looks like a man]]. Also closely related to "I'm not pregnant, I'm just obese" jokes. Compare with [[Your Costume Needs Work]] and [[For Halloween I Am Going As Myself]]. Can be a result of the monster being [[Mistaken for An Imposter]].
