When a character always wears a mask, one will wonder what his face really looks like. Sometimes it turns out that he doesn't have a face. Instead of some kind of mundane climax or anticlimax, we get thrown straight into Nightmare Fuel territory: Instead of a face, the character has some kind of blank slate, rotten mess, arcane forcefield or other completely inhuman thing that does not qualify as being a face. Also happens when someone mistakes a suit of Animated Armor for a person. Not exactly a Sub-Trope of The Faceless or The Blank, since those tropes are character types and this trope is a situation where a character transitions to the second trope from one specific subtype of the first trope. It's a kind of The Reveal as well as a kind of The Unreveal. As such, expect unmarked spoilers. Compare Not a Mask, where what you'd see if you took the "mask" off would probably still be pretty bad. |

In SnarfQuest, Princess Penelope falls in love with Aveeare: not understanding that he is a robot and believing him to be knight in a suit of armour. At one point she sees him with visor up (as he is conducting repairs) and sees that he has no face, just circuitry which she interprets as a mass of scar tissue that has completely obliterated his facial features. | |

Reaper Man uses this trope when Death, as “Bill Door”, confronts the “new” Death who has arisen in his absence from duty. The old Death manifests as a skeleton, but at least it’s a human skeleton; this shows that he has some sympathy with humanity. The new Death is an immaterial spectre, and utterly inhuman. | |

Fullmetal Alchemist Alphonse Elric appears to be a large man wearing a medieval suit of plate armor, unless his faceplate is lifted or his helmet is knocked off, revealing empty space. (Technically it's his soul, as it was bound to the armor when his body was consumed by a failed transmutation spell, but souls are invisible.) Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos: Literally invoked, as the villain of the film had his face torn off by a chimera years before the events of the movie. |

Downplayed in Sidekick Girl. Declan Jade, antagonist of the Gravity arc, wears a White Mask of Doom that covers all of his face except for one eye. When he removes it, wee see that half of his face is relatively normal, but the other half is a mass of scar tissue, due to the accident that nearly killed him. | |

In the first albums of Lucifer, Mazikeen chose to have a half-face and to wear a mask over the faceless half. Mortals assume she wears it for Rule of Cool or because of some mundane injury. The Reveal freaks out at least one human enough to make a really bad choice. | |

Downplayed in a Garfield strip where Jon puts on an ugly mask to scare Garfield. Garfield, unphased, tries to unmask Jon, only to pull the masked head clean off Jon's torso, much to his shock. Jon then reveals he somehow managed to contort himself so his face was at belly-level, with the masked face just a fake-out. | |

One of the most famous examples is The Phantom of the Opera, who's described in the book as being hideous-looking and skull-faced underneath his mask. This has not held true of all the film adaptations, however, especially the most recent one where Gerald Butler appears to have just a mild skin rash underneath his half-mask. | |

One JLA (1997) story has some Applied Phlebotinum separate all the heroes and their secret identities into separate people, and the separated Batman has only the barest outline of a face under his cowl. This is to symbolize that without Bruce, the identity of Batman barely has any motivation, while Bruce himself slowly goes insane from not having an outlet for his righteous fury at crime. | |

Not until partway through the next season would we find out what lies beneath his mask and cloak: a black, cloudlike energy form, the physical manifestation of the "half-ascended" Anubis. | |

In The Lord of the Rings, the Lord of the Nazgûl (the Witch-King) wears a mask-cum-helm to the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, despite having no corporeal head beneath it. In the film version he is seen placing it atop his robe's empty shoulders, in effect defining his head. Otherwise, all the Nazgûl wear concealing hoods, which have the same function — in fact, their robes as a whole define the shape of entirely invisible bodies. Of course, with the benefit of Ring-O-Vision, Frodo gets to see 'through' to the ethereal remains of their faces. | |

Slade of Teen Titans (2003) loves it. In "Masks", Robin defeats him and removes the mask, revealing the communicator screen and the self-destruct timer, since it was actually a Sladebot. In the season four finale, Slade's mask is knocked off, displaying a bare skull with a single blazing eye, as by that time he was The Undead. He gets his human body restored later, but we don't get to see his normal face. | |

Hexadecimal of Reboot. When Bob removes her mask in one episode, there's nothing there but a hole with a bright white light pouring out if it, and she nearly explodes, which would've taken all of Mainframe with her. This does open up a bit of Fridge Logic as to how she keeps changing masks all the time without this recurring, though... | |

Doctor Who: Not only does Omega lack a face under his mask, but he doesn't even have a body. His willpower was the only thing that kept his existence. (The best part is, doesn't even realize he doesn't have a body anymore. When his mask is whipped off and it's all revealed he has a bit of a Villainous BSoD.) In "The Masque of Mandragora", Count Federico does a Dramatic Unmask of the astrologer Hieronymous, who is dressed in the mask and robes of his cult, only to get a nasty shock when he finds his face is just a glowing light after absorbing the Mandragora Helix. The Headless Monks are another example, having no heads beneath their hoods. |

Justice Society of America villain Johnny Sorrow was flung into Another Dimension and remade by the Eldritch Abomination that calls it home. Afterwards he is an invisible, intangible specter while wearing his mask. When he removes it, he becomes solid and reveals an other-dimensional visage so incomprehensibly hideous that all but the most powerful (or blind, or insane) of living things will instantly die at the sight of it. The reader typically only sees a bright light. The one time that it was shown, it appeared to be a disgusting, incongruous mass of tentacles. | |

This is implied to be true for Leyland in Use Sword on Monster, and the possibility disturbs him greatly. Later confirmed when we learn that Leyland, or at least a different version of him, was created through the Law Of Narrative Causality and the narrator never bothered to give that Leyland a physical appearance beneath his getup. | |

Happens briefly in Diablo III when the archangel Tyrael defies Heaven. His hood falls back, revealing empty space where a face begins to form as Humanity Ensues. | |

Two examples in Rivers of London: At the end of Moon Over Soho Lesley takes off her surgical mask and Peter's reaction is that the scars and wreckage left from Punch's possession of her means that what is left no longer qualifies as a face. A variation occurs in Broken Homes: when facing off against the Big Bad of the book, the faceless man, Peter realizes he has a spell that obscures his face (thus his name). After essentially disbelieving the effect, Peter still can't see the villain's face: he is wearing a mask under the illusion. |

In Kirby Star Allies, Void Termina wears a heart-shaped mask in its first and third phases. When it is knocked off, there’s nothing but a portal to its internal organs. | |

Homestar Runner: Invoked in the very first Strong Bad Email, where Strong Bad actually mentions that taking off his mask and boxing gloves is the same thing as taking off someone's face and hands. The email "the chair" had a scene with Strong Bad actually taking off his mask, but when he does so, he is completely covered up by the back of the new chair he bought from Bubs in the same email. His pained reaction and declaration of "I am NEVER gonna do that again!" seems to prove that his mask really is his face. | |

Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos: Literally invoked, as the villain of the film had his face torn off by a chimera years before the events of the movie. | |

In the Family Guy episode "Mr. Saturday Knight," the Black Knight not only wears his helmet in the locker room, he shaves with it on; meaning he spreads shaving cream on the side of the helmet and shaves it off (and then curses under his breath when he cuts himself with the razor). Apparently, as with Man Ray above, his helmet is his head. | |
