The very last of the famous Bryan masks – worn by cult members in the film “Bryan Loves You” – is going to be given away to one horror fan on Halloween night. To enter the contest, simply comment on the YouTube video here here. Seriously, this is the last mask in the world. Only about 50 were made for production, and this is the last remaining.
