To describe The Undertaker as one of wrestling's most iconic stars is a gross understatement.

Throughout his near 30-year WWE career, the Deadman has amassed countless fans, several World Championships, a Royal Rumble victory and is instantly recognizable to any fan.

But during 1995, the seemingly unstoppable star was on the receiving end of a nasty face injury, one that'd keep Undertaker away from the ring until Survivor Series.

With his face not fully healed, the Phenom donned a ghoulish mask, styled after the iconic one worn in the Phantom of the Opera.

Looking more demonic than ever, this mask look would sadly not last long, as he would be un-masked just months later at the 1996 Royal Rumble event by Bret Hart.

Though the mask's tenure was brief, it surely left plenty of fans sleeping with the light on.
