Maskaphilia

The attraction to/fetish of fictional characters who:
-Have objects for heads
-have masks that cover some or most of their face worn at all times
-have a face covered by a shadow, making it not visible
-or any other way of obscuring the face

(bonus points the more in-human it gets)

The word stems from:
Maskaphobia; Fear of masks, or otherwise something obscuring the face on a human body
-philia; a fetish of or abnormal love for a specified thing (example: Necrophilia)

Examples of this in characters:

-Sammy Lawrence (BATIM)
-The Projectionist (BATIM)
-Dream (Youtuber)
-Whitty (Friday Night Funkin mod)
-Updike (in Whitty's backstory)
-MTT Resort receptionist (Undertale)
-Hex (Friday Night Funkin mod)
-Most visual interpretations of Phone Guy (FNAF)
-SCP-035, The Possessive Mask (SCP)
-SCP-049, The Plague Doctor (SCP)
-The cast of Dialtown: Phone Dating Simulator
-several characters from Cuphead
-Some Weirdcore OCs
And many, many others.
