The Faces of Face Off: Season 9, Episode 4

Welcome back to The Faces of Face Off, where we painstakingly review the week's episode frame by frame to bring you the most amusing facial expressions made by the artists, judges and whoever else decides to wander into the lab.

How to Watch

Catch up on Face Off on Peacock or the SYFY App.

Season 9, Episode 4: "Frightful Fiction" had the artists creating characters inspired by made-up mashup literature, such as Sherlock Holmes: Bloodsucker, Great Expectations of a Serial Killer and Don Quixote: Monster of La Mancha. As this was the artists' first solo challenge of the season -- and the first-ever "Focus Challenge" on Face Off, with extra special attention being given to the work done on the face -- it made for something of a stressful outing.
