What’s your favorite scary movie? This iconic question is about to send shivers down the spines of Fortnite players everywhere. After years of rumors and speculation, the legendary Fortnite Ghostface is finally stepping off the silver screen and onto the Battle Bus. With Fortnitemares 2025 just around the corner, leaks have all but confirmed that the master of suspense is making his terrifying debut, and the community is absolutely buzzing with excitement. From a new Mythic weapon to a full cosmetic set, let's dive into everything we know about this killer collaboration.

The Fortnite x Ghostface Leaks: What to Expect

The hype train left the station when reputable Fortnite leakers like Wensoing and HYPEX uncovered some juicy files in the game's code. The most significant finding? A Mythic item codenamed "Stalker Knife." This is more than just a hint; it's a direct nod to Ghostface's signature weapon. While details are still emerging, a Mythic-tier item suggests it will have a unique ability. Could it offer a temporary speed boost or perhaps a lunge attack to close the distance on unsuspecting opponents? Whatever its function, it's set to be a game-changer during the Fortnitemares event.

This collaboration isn't just about one item, though. Players can almost certainly expect a full cosmetic bundle available in the Item Shop. Based on similar horror icon releases, the Fortnite x Ghostface crossover will likely be a must-buy for fans.

What's Inside the Scream Bundle?

While Epic Games is keeping the official details under wraps, we can piece together what the full Ghostface set might look like. Fans are anticipating a bundle that's packed with thematic goodies. Here’s what we're hoping to see:

  • The Ghostface Outfit: The star of the show, of course! Will we get multiple styles, perhaps a pristine version and a battle-worn one?

  • Back Bling: A classic corded telephone or a voice changer would be the perfect accessory.

  • Pickaxe: The iconic Buck 120 knife, sold separately from the Mythic weapon.

  • Emote: A “What’s your favorite scary movie?” voice line emote or the classic knife-wiping taunt would be incredible.

Community concepts and past bundles suggest a price point around 2,600 V-Bucks for the complete set, making it a valuable addition to any player's locker. 👻

The Stalker's Quest: All 30 Ghostface Stalkbox Locations

To make the event even more engaging, insiders have hinted at a special set of challenges themed around the killer. Rumors point to a questline that involves tracking down hidden caches across the island. While the exact details are yet to be confirmed, the community is already buzzing about finding all 30 Ghostface Stalkbox locations.

These Stalkboxes are expected to be hidden in the island's spookiest corners, rewarding players who are brave enough to explore them. While a full map of their locations isn't available yet, you should plan to search these potential hotspots during the event:

  • Areas surrounding Grim Gables

  • The shadowy forests of Weeping Woods

  • Any abandoned or eerie-looking structures

Completing this challenge will likely unlock an exclusive cosmetic, like a special spray or banner, so keep your eyes peeled for more official news.

A Crossover of Distinction

An interesting detail about this collaboration is the distinction between Ghostface and the Scream franchise. The Ghostface mask itself is owned by the company Fun World, while the Scream movies license its use. So, is this strictly a Fortnite Ghostface collaboration, or is it a full-fledged Scream event? This could determine the depth of the content we receive. A Ghostface-only deal means we get the awesome skin and related items. A Scream franchise deal, however, could open the door to references to Sidney Prescott, Woodsboro, and other iconic elements from the films. Either way, the arrival of one of horror's most recognizable figures is a massive win for Fortnite players and horror fans alike.
