Enigma is a question that is not immediately answered and creates interest for the audience - a puzzle that the audience has to solve. It is very popular within the horror genre. Scream is a very good example as the mask is what hides the killers identity. The audience question who is hiding behind the mask, why are they killing innocent people and why attack Sydney. Saw is another example where the attacker is also hiding behind a mask.
As for our killer he will be wearing a make up. It could have a meaning about his past just like Joker in the Batman Dark Knight Rises. We could use have pictures of the Joker in Batman (1989) around his bedroom to show to the audience that he is inspired by the character. Just like John Kramer before he became Jigsaw.
