Best Answer

Executioners wore a mask or hood to protect their identity. Even today in some states theres still capital punishment or executions. The executioners still wear a hood. For example in electrocution or the electric chair the executioner might be wearing a hood with two holes for the eyes. And Did you know being an executioner used to be a family profession in France.
