I'm not instinctively frightened by mask-wearers, but... err... this one does the trick.
As the article says, the eyes behind the mask do not look wholly natural. There is also a lot of agreement that they look feminine.
Bizarre masked character frightening people in South Carolina neighborhood after dark

A character straight out of a horror movie is terrifying people in one South Carolina neighborhood — and now police say they are launching an official investigation into the “suspicious activity.”
The Sumter County Sheriff’s Office shared a creepy surveillance photo of its suspect Tuesday, fueling social media talk of The Slender Man, a supernatural character known for having a blank white face.
Like the Slender Man, the image shows someone in a mask with no facial features — other than holes for eyes and nostrils.
The photo was taken March 24 outside a home in the Sumter’s Meadowcroft Subdivision, the sheriff’s office told McClatchy News, and it “scared the residents in the house.” The area is about 40 miles east of Columbia.
