Several tweets in the past week have appeared to show a new Demon Deacon mascot costume, which first appeared after the annual Women’s Football Camp.
Below is a tweet from the Wake Forest Football account that shows some ladies with the Deacon on the motorcycle, and it is immediately apparent that the appearance of the Deacon has changed:

My first thought when seeing the closeup of this new Deacon is that he lacks emotion, and seems almost like more of a dead person with a vacant stare and very pale skin.
