In this universe, the killer's distinctive rubber mask, with blond hair and white teeth, is a Halloween costume staple, even 35 years later, so Khan explains that she wanted a design that was both period-specific for the '80s yet still resonant in the present-day. "When we were working on the mask design, we landed on the idea of a handsome man being terrifying," she says. "We started pulling '80s heartthrob references: Dolph Lundgren, Rob Lowe, and Kiefer Sutherland, with The Lost Boys touch with the earring. The big teeth, a perfect white-tooth smile, to me, bridged both eras."
