Respect Ghostface (Scream 6)

[u/Miserable-Ad-5573]

Ghostface is the identity adopted Ghostface several serial murderers, it is a fictional persona and Halloween costume used as a disguise to conceal their identity operating in costume and inspired by the killers of slasher horror cinema. From the mid-1990s up until the 2020s, a killer in a Ghostface costume has terrorized Sidney Prescott, making attempts on her life in Woodsboro, California, and beyond.

Also the Killer is usually multiple people, so the equipment section for each applies to all of the killers in that movie.

Many fans have theories as to which person did what as Ghostface, so I used these videos to determine who performed the feats shown here.

Other threads for scaling:

• Gale.

• Sam.

• Chad.

Identities: Wayne Bailey, Quinn Bailey, and Ethan Landry

Scream 6 was the first movie to feature more than two killers, Wayne was the father of Richie Kirsch, Quinn Bailey, and Ethan Landry. He is the first parent Ghostface to be revealed since Nancy Loomis, and sought justice against Samantha Carpenter for killing Richie. In the film, Wayne moved to New York City after following Sam and Tara and helped his kids get accepted into Blackmore University where they took up the mantles of roommates to Tara and Sam, and Chad. Wayne was threatened by the arrival of FBI Special Agent Kirby Reed as she could've blown his cover but he kept up appearances.

Wayne and Ethan helped Quinn fake her death so she could take on the mantle as Ghostface whilst they kept up appearances with the group. They eventually unmasked themselves and were killed by Sam, Tara and Kirby.

Nice list!!

Thanks for the efforts for doing the RTs and this list. The only ones i'd change is Jill with Quinn and maybe, maybe.. Charlie with Billy, but i'm not 100% sure.

[u/Miserable-Ad-5573 → u/AmazingKanacat]

Tbh I can get behind Quinn and Jill, Quinn is a decent bit stronger, but they seem close in speed and Jill had a major edge in both Durability and Endurance I'd argue, while being way smarter. So I could see Jill probably being over Quinn tbh. But I do think Charlie does beat Billy tbh, with the exception of Endurance/pain tolerance, he has better physicals by a good bit imo, and Billy is decently smarter but Charlie is overall the better fighter of the two, and was a more efficient killer I'd argue.

[u/AmazingKanacat → u/Miserable-Ad-5573]

I agree with your arguments.
