When I shared the first look at the Ghostface mask from MTV’s forthcoming “Scream” series, I thought that it had a very low-resolution quality to it, almost like it was a screengrab off a computer screen or something.
I got in touch with MTV and was able to get our hands on a hi-res version of the mask, which makes a huge difference. Seriously.
Below we have a beautiful, clean, HD look at the new Ghostface set to appear on the series when it premieres June 30th. You can really see all of the contours and details that were lost in the original, compressed image. I’m digging it way more. You guys?

“The new mask is cool and scary and takes the series into a new direction,” Craven said of the mask earlier this week. “It also ties into the story, which I won’t give away.”
I’ve been trying to crack the case of the missing “fleshy” look and shared this bizarre theory.
In “Scream,” “When Nina, a gorgeous entitled teen at Lakewood High School, is murdered in an apparent crime of passion, it exposes the inner workings of the town’s complex social hierarchy. After Audrey, a young artistic loner, is “outed” via cyberbullying, she has to find a way to hold her head up high with the help of Noah, her nerdy, hyper-intelligent best friend, and a renewed relationship with Emma, her former “bestie” from elementary school. In the meantime, Emma’s mom, Maggie (the town’s medical examiner) works with the town’s sheriff, Clark, to solve the murder and determine if it’s connected to a crime spree from the town’s dark past — a murder spree committed by a previous generation’s “bullying victim” Brandon James.”
Willa Fitzgerald, Taylor-Klaus, Bobby Campo, Connor Weil and Joel Gretsch star in the new “Scream,” inspired by Wes Craven’s film series.
