Sometime, before the events of Splatterhouse (2010), the Terror Mask had another host. Nothing is known about the host other than it appears to have been a man and that he was mummified in an Aztec sarcophagus with the Mask still attached. After an attack by Ghasts, Rick Taylor accidently knocked open the sarcophagus and the host's body turned to dust within seconds. The allowed for the Terror Mask to take a new host, Rick.
