“ | I always knew he'd come back. In this town, Michael Myers is a myth. He's the Boogeyman. A ghost story to scare kids. But this Boogeyman is real.

~ Laurie Strode describing Michael Myers at the end of Halloween Kills. |
Michael Audrey Myers is the main antagonist of the 2018 timeline of John Carpenter's Halloween franchise, which acts as a sequel continuity to the original 1978 slasher film of the same name while ignoring all its previous sequels.
Just like in the original film, he is an emotionless and enigmatic serial killer who terrorized his hometown in Haddonfield, Illinois on Halloween night of 1978. However, Myers was bested by the babysitter Laurie Strode, leading to his incarceration in a mental institution, but eventually escapes through Dr. Ranbir Sartain's involvement and returns to Haddonfield forty years later during Halloween night of 2018. In this version, Michael Myers is not related to Laurie Strode, though several rumors believe he is, returning the character to the ambiguity that the 1978 film established.
And just like all of his other incarnations, Michael of the 2018 timeline is so dangerous, powerful and terrifying, that he can easily be seen as one of the most iconic and horrifying characters in fiction ever; with only the likes of the various incarnations of Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger being able to contend with him.
For some scenes of the trilogy, while masked and for his breathing sound effects, he was portrayed by Nick Castle, who also played the character while masked in the original film. For all three films, while masked, he was mainly portrayed by James Jude Courtney.
History[]
Halloween (1978)[]
Michael Audrey Myers was born on October 19th, 1957 as the only son of Donald Myers and Edith Myers and the younger brother of Judith Myers. The family resided in a two-story house at 45 Lampkin Lane in the suburban town of Haddonfield, Illinois. From a young age Michael showed himself to be antisocial and withdrawn. He would even have a disturbing habit of clipping the wings of butterflies.
In 1963, when he was six years old on Halloween night, he came home early after a night of trick-or-treating. He sneaked into the back of his house and witness his sister Judith going upstairs to have sex with her boyfriend Daniel. He then went into the kitchen and took a chef knife from a drawer and put on a clown mask. As soon as Daniel left Michael sneaked upstairs, and he brutally and mercilessly began stabbing Judith. Michael stabbed her seventeen times in the chest until she bled out and died. Michael then left the house only to be confronted by his confused parents. When his parents removed his mask the only thing they saw was his blank, pale emotionless face. He was sent to Smith's Grove Sanitarium where he would stay until he would grow of age to be tried as an adult. He was assigned a psychiatrist named Dr. Samuel Loomis. Loomis spent eight years trying to reach him and understand his psyche and find out why he did such a horrible act but Michael had refused to say a word since that night and always showed no emotion of any kind. By the time he was fourteen, Loomis came to the stunning conclusion that he had to be the human embodiment of pure evil and had no actual motive in his homicidal actions and simply wanted to destroy peace. Thus, he spent seven more years campaigning to keep him locked away.
In the year 1978, fifteen years after killing his sister Michael now at the age of twenty-one was to be driven by Dr. Loomis and Nurse Marion Chambers to a court hearing to determine if he would be incarcerated into a federal prison. However, Michael started a riot by freeing all the other patients from their cells. Using this as a distraction he stole Loomis and Marion's car and drove back to Haddonfield intent on killing again. On the way there he murdered an industrial worker named Christopher Hastings and stole his grey coveralls. Once he got to Haddonfield he took up residence in his abandoned childhood home and killed and ate a dog for sustenance. He would also rob a local Hardware store to get several items he needed for his murder spree. He stole a kitchen knife, a rope and a Halloween mask. A modified Captain Kirk mask that was painted white with its hair dyed dark brown. Although, the town sheriff Leigh Brackett investigated it, he just assumed it was a bunch of kids making a mess. Soon after he would see a young woman named Laurie Strode stop by his house to drop off a pair of keys. Michael then spent the day stalking her, appearing in the distance on her way to school, at school and at home. However he always mysteriously disappeared soon after.
That night, Michael then enacted his plan to kill Laurie and her friends. While Laurie and her friend Annie (Sheriff Brackett’s daughter) where babysitting the neighborhood kids Tommy and Lindsey, Michael stalked them. However, he was then confronted by Lindsey’s dog, Lester. Michael however promptly kills the dog. Soon enough when Annie goes into her car and Michael emerges slitting her throat and killing her. He then soon goes across the street and finds Laurie’s other friend Lynda whom is having sex with her boyfriend Bob. Michael attacks Bob and stabs him into the wall. Michael looks at Bob’s corpse sadistically admiring his work. Soon enough he walks up to Lynda he wore a ghost costume and Bob’s glasses to trick her into thinking he’s her boyfriend. As soon as Lynda’s back is turned to make a phone call to Laurie, Michael takes the cord and strangled her to death with it. He then answers to phone and breaths deeply on the other end, something that disturbs Laurie and causes her to investigate.
Knowing that Laurie would find them, he removed Judith's gravestone and placed it behind Annie's corpse and also positioned the corpses of the other teenagers in ways that would frighten Laurie. Laurie is then grazed in the arm by Michael’s knife and falls over the stairs. She manages to survive and make it back to Lindsey’s house. There her and Michael get into a climactic fight. Laurie stabs Michael in the neck with a knitting needle but it merely slows him down. Laurie attempts to hide in a closet but Michael smashes inside which prompts Laurie to stab him in the eye with a hanger. Just as she thought Michael was dead, he wakes up and attacks her again. Laurie ends up removing his mask in the scuffle which distracts him and causes him to hurriedly put it back on. Thankfully, Dr. Loomis arrives and shoots Michael in the chest six times, causing him to fall out the window. Dr. Loomis looks down from the three-story balcony but finds out that Michael has survived and escaped without anyone seeing. Soon enough, Michael’s breathing can be heard all over Haddonfield meaning he could be anywhere, and that nowhere was safe from the boogeyman.
Capture and Re-Incarceration[]
Soon after his fight with Laurie and Loomis on Halloween night in 1978, Michael recovered and began walking down the street where he is found by a young Frank Hawkins; the deputy tries to shoot him but misses and Michael is able to evade him. Michael then comes across a young Lonnie Elam but does not bother killing him and merely continues walking as he is being chased by the law. He ends up back at the Myers house and ambushes Hawkins and his partner Pete McCabe; as Michael begins strangling McCabe, he maneuvers the officer in front of him taking him hostage and using him as a human shield, McCabe is then shot accidentally by Hawkins. Michael leaves the house only to be surrounded by the Haddonfield Police Department and is then knocked to the ground by Hawkins.
Although Loomis prepares to execute Michael by shooting him in the head, however, Hawkins saves Michael's life in an act of undeserved mercy. Michael is instead taken into custody and re-incarcerated at Smith's Grove. At some point in 1979, Loomis stops being Michael's doctor and begins begging for Michael to be executed to finally put an end to his reign of evil. Loomis even asks to personally oversee his death and incinerate Michael's body, constantly stating at the end of the interview "It needs to die!". However, Loomis pleas out found on deaf ears and he ultimately passes away without being able to stop Michael.
Halloween (2018)[]
Evil returns to Haddonfield.
In 2018, 40 years after the events of the first film, Michael came under the care of another doctor named Dr. Ranbir Sartain a student of the late Doctor Loomis who passed away years ago. Despite Dr. Sartain's efforts to understand Michael's motives and thoughts behind the killings, Michael remains silent and closed off. The day before Michael is scheduled to be transferred to a new facility, two podcasters named Aaron and Dana arrive and wish to see him. Michael does not acknowledge their presence, although he does show just a moment of interest for the first time in 40 years when Aaron reveals his old mask to him, and for a split second, Michael peeks over his shoulder at it, but then immediately resumes his catatonic nature.
The next night, Michael is loaded onto a prison bus and manages to escape after it crashes into a ditch. Killing the security guards escorting him, Michael notices a car stopping nearby and kills both occupants before hijacking their car. He travels to Haddonfield and finds Aaron and Dana recording in front of his sister Judith's grave. He then follows them to a service station. After killing a mechanic for his boiler suit and the attendant by ripping his jaw open, he traps Dana in the bathroom. He drops some human teeth (from the torn jaw of the attendant) into the stall she's hiding in and attacks her. Aaron, who had found the bodies of the mechanic and attendant, tries to save her but is killed by getting his head slammed repeatedly against the bathroom wall and stall door; Dana is then strangled to death. Michael opens the trunk of their car and reclaims his mask.
Later that night, Michael starts killing off the residents of Haddonfield. He first invades the home of a woman and bludgeons her to death with a hammer; he takes a nearby kitchen knife and leaves behind the hammer. Then, Michael goes into the home of a nearby neighbor and stabs her through the neck after slamming her head into the corner of the table. Michael also kills babysitter Vicky and her boyfriend, Dave, before coming face to face with Laurie for the first time in forty years; she shoots him in the shoulder, but this does little to affect him and he gets away.
He encounters Oscar in a yard and kills him by stabbing him in the back and impaling his head on a gate lined with spikes. Michael then spots Laurie's granddaughter Allyson but loses track of her. Walking down an abandoned street, Michael gets run over by Hawkins, who is now a Sheriff's Deputy. Hawkins tries to finish Michael off by shooting him in the head but is saved when Dr. Sartain, who was in the car with Allyson, stabs Hawkins in the neck instead.
Sartain takes Michael's mask and drags Michael into the back of the car. Michael eventually comes to and puts back on his mask before kicking the metal partition and sending Sartain into the airbag, causing the car to stop. He kills Sartain by crushing his head against the ground with his boot. Allyson is able to escape while Michael is occupied. Michael notices another squad car approaching and kills the two officers inside; he cuts one's throat and stabs him in the head, then decapitates the other, sticking a flashlight inside the hollowed-out head as a macabre imitation of a jack-o-lantern.
He arrives at the home of Laurie and sees her son-in-law Ray come out to check on the two deceased officers. After killing him as well, he breaks through the door and tries to get to Laurie. However, Michael gets two fingers blown off when Laurie manages to shoot him again with a shotgun. After breaking in, he stalks Laurie throughout the secure house and eventually traps her upstairs; he throws Laurie off the roof but is somewhat surprised to see her not lying on the ground. Hearing Allyson reaches the house, Michael heads downstairs and hears the Strodes in the underground safe room underneath the kitchen. Michael manages to get through by lifting off the counter that was covering the entrance but is shot again by both Laurie and Karen; stunned by the gunshots, Michael tumbles down the stairwell and loses his knife. As they try to escape, Michael grabs Karen's ankle but Allyson stabs him several times, causing him to let go.
Laurie activates several metal bars that block the stairwell, trapping Michael in the safe room, and an open gas line starts leaking gas into the house. Michael stares blankly up at Laurie, who tosses a flare into the room, setting it ablaze. Myers is last seen looking at the survivors with a dissonant expression as the house burns to the ground in a deadly fire, but Michael's body can not be seen. After the credits, Michael's heavy breathing can be heard hinting that Michael survived the inferno.
Halloween Kills[]

Michael emerges from the inferno.
Despite seemingly being left for dead inside the inferno, Michael managed to survive by hiding inside a metal partition inside the underground bunker. As firefighters came to extinguish the blaze, one fell through the weakened kitchen floor into the bunker; hearing this, Michael revealed himself and killed the firefighter by jamming one of the man's tools through his head. One of the firefighters then accidentally rescues Michael allowing his to survive. Upon emerging from the still-burning house, Michael kills the remaining firefighters and first responders before heading towards a nearby house. He punches through a door and kills one of the residents, Phil, by slamming his head against the wall and impales him on the door shards before coming across the other resident Sondra; seeing that she is wielding a knife, Michael merely breaks a long kitchen light fixture and jams it through her throat.
After stabbing Phil's body with numerous kitchen knives, Michael takes the remaining one and steals a vehicle, driving back towards Haddonfield. Michael comes across a trio of kids and follows them to a nearby park, killing one of them before being found by a grown-up Lindsey Wallace. Ignoring her, he targets her SUV parked nearby with three people inside including former nurse Marion Chambers who used to work with Dr. Loomis. As Michael stabs Marion to death, he is nearly strangled by Marcus; however, Michael stabs him in the face with his knife. The remaining occupant, Vanessa, tries shooting him several times, but Michael kicks one of the car doors into her arm and redirects the gun at her when it fires. He begins to stalk Lindsey through the nearby woods, but loses sight of her and returns to the park the pose the bodies.
Upon arriving at his old childhood home, Michael breaks in and hides upstairs. While the current homeowners look for him, Michael kills Big John by stabbing him under the arm and gouging his eyes out; his partner Little John enters and Michael kills him too. The now-adult Lonnie enters the darkened house looking for Michael and is killed, his body stuffed into the attic crawlspace. He then stabs Lonnie's son Cameron several times in the stomach only to be stopped by Allyson. He disarms Allyson and shoves her down the stairs before returning to Cameron and mortally wounding him; while he is lured downstairs, Michael stops on the stairwell when he notices Cameron is still barely alive and kills him by breaking his neck. Before he can kill Allyson, Michael is stabbed in the back by Karen using a pitchfork and has his mask taken from him.
Michael goes outside and follows Karen to a nearby street where his mask is laid out on the road. When Michael goes to take it, he finds himself surrounded by a mob of Haddonfield residents including Karen, the retired Sheriff Brackett, and Tommy Doyle. Pausing to pick up his mask and don it again, Michael is then swarmed by the mob and severely beaten nearly to death; as he weakly reaches to grab his knife, Karen takes it and stabs him in the back. A now motionless Michael about to be shot in the head by Brackett suddenly lunges back up and slashed his throat, then kills most of (if not all) the members of the mob. The final one he kills is Tommy Doyle, taking his own baseball bat and beating him to death with it before going back to his home. Michael goes back to his sister's room and sees Karen staring out the window; he ambushes Karen and stabs her repeatedly to death before gazing outside the window himself.
Halloween Ends[]
Michael has been absent since his last rampage and now inhabits a cavern in the sewers. In 2022, Corey Cunningham, a troubled young man, encounters Michael but escapes. He later lures an antagonistic cop named Doug Mulaney into the cavern, where Michael kills him. Michael returns to Haddonfield, working with Corey as he kills both a doctor and nurse that bothered Allyson, who's dating Corey. Unsettled by Corey's eyes, which remind her of Michael's, Laurie tells Corey to stay away from Allyson. Enraged, he returns to the cavern, grapples with Michael, and steals his mask.
As Michael unknowingly follows Corey back into Haddonfield, Corey pretends to be Michael and murders several people who wronged him. He goes to kill Laurie, but she mistakes him for Michael and shoots Corey down a stairwell, after which he fatally stabs himself so he can frame Laurie for the assault. The real Michael arrives and kills Corey by snapping his neck before a climactic vicious fight ensues between him and Laurie.
She violently stabs and impales Michael with numerous knives, pinning him to a table where she slits his throat with a knife. Michael grabs Laurie by the throat and begins to choke her. As Laurie implores Michael to do it, Allyson intervenes and breaks Michael's arm, freeing Laurie and allowing her to slit Michael’s wrist, to which Michael then dies from his wounds. A funeral procession takes place, with Laurie and Allyson driving Michael's corpse through Haddonfield during an unorthodox "procession" for all the townspeople to see to provide closure to everyone's trauma after his fifty-nine years of terror. Then, to make sure Michael doesn't come back (assuming he could have possibly survived his injuries), Laurie disposes of Michael's corpse in an industrial shredder, formally ending Michael's reign of terror on Haddonfield once and for all.
With Michael Myers finally dead, Karen and all of Michael's countless victims from his sister Judith to his "successor" Corey are avenged. The citizens of Haddonfield are now finally free from the pain and death he'd caused and can now move on, safe in the knowledge that the town is at peace since Michael's violent, murderous and bloody rampage has finally ended for good.
Personality[]
As always, Michael is described as being pure evil. However, this version of Michael could also be considered the darkest interpretation of the Shape. Upon escaping due to the bus crash, he savagely kills a father and bashes his preteen son's head against a car window, snapping his neck instead of just scaring him away like he did with Marion Chambers 40 years ago. While his motives are unknown - and, to some extent, suggested to be unknowable - there is a heavy implication that Michael is a sadist who takes some kind of pleasure in the fear of his victims. He even makes crude jack-o-lanterns out of police officers' heads and rips out a man's lower jaw and drops his teeth in front of Dana just to terrorize her before going in for the kill. However, this would be his undoing countless times. For instance, when Karen pretends to be defenceless, Michael takes the bait, resulting in Karen shooting him.
For the most part since he is no longer connected to Laurie via the sibling bond, Myers's kills are much more random returning the character back to his 1978 roots. In fact, it is plausible Michael does not even remember Laurie despite the fight between the two 40 years ago. The only reason he goes after Laurie again is largely due to Dr. Sartain's doing, ensuring that he makes sure that the two encounter each other.
However, Michael's greatest weakness would, ironically, be old age. While completely taking down a majority of the mob in Kills, the injuries he sustained along with his age finally catch up to him. When Michael is seen again in Ends, he visibly walks with a limp in his first appearance. He also spares Corey when he begins to throttle him during their first encounter, most likely because he looked into Corey’s eyes and saw the same evil Michael himself possessed.
In regards to his mask, Michael has some affinity for it for unknown reasons. When Karen takes it to lure Michael out to the mob, instead of just ignoring the mask and resuming his killing, he takes the bait and even opts to put it back on before being savagely beaten by Tommy Doyle and the others. In Ends despite not knowing where Corey was, Michael somehow tracks him down just to get his mask back. If Karen or Laurie try to remove it, Michael notably reacts in a panicked fashion where he desperately tries to keep anyone from pulling his mask off.
Appearance[]
He wears a black jumpsuit, but his most notable trait is his pale mask which has aged. As the movies progress, both the coveralls and the mask sustain more and more damage and decay, giving him an increasingly aged, worn, and rotting look.
Michael's face beneath the mask is never shown in full. What is shown indicates that Michael looks relatively normal for a Caucasian man of his age. He is mostly bald, with short gray hair and a beard. His only unusual feature is his left eye, scarred and blinded from when Laurie stabbed him in the left eye with a coat hanger in 1978.
Michael sustains further disfiguring injuries throughout the films. After the climax of Halloween (2018), Michael is missing the little and ring finger of his left hand, blown off by Laurie's shotgun. In Halloween Ends, his injuries from his 2018 rampage and four years of rough living have permanently scarred him - much of his face is covered with burn scars and blisters, especially along the left side, and he has a much more haggard and worn appearance overall, with much longer and dirtier hair. He also appears to walk with a slight limp which may have been caused by the many injuries he sustained over the years.
Powers and Abilities[]
“ | I always thought Michael Myers was flesh and blood, just like you and me, but a mortal man could not have survived what he's lived through. The more he kills, the more he transcends into something else impossible to defeat. Fear. People are afraid. That is the true curse of Michael. | „ |
~ Laurie Strode at the end of Halloween Kills. |
Powers[]
- Superhuman Strength: Michael displays feats of strength that are impossible for an ordinary human to perform. He was able to crush Dr Sartain’s skull with a single kerb stomp, and effortlessly impaled a firefighter and threw him a good distance away.
- Superhuman Agility: Much like in the 1978 film, Myers can disappear and reappear quickly. He does this trick at the end of Kills when he slips through the mob to kill Karen Strode. He's also shown to be capable of moving at such speeds where he kills an entire mob within mere seconds, the novelization for Halloween Kills explained Myers to be moving as fast as a blur.
- Superhuman Durability: Can take a lot of abuse most especially in Kills. Shown to be capable of being set on fire and being at the epicenter of a fire that shattered windows through sheer pressure and destroyed the house; alongside completely no-selling multiple rounds of gun-fire alongside stabs and cuts, is able to take a direct car crash without even being flung away (which means he took the full-force of the impact) without any visible damage or harm. However, by Ends, the amount of damage that Michael has taken over the years is clearly taking its toll on him, showing that Michael's durability is limited. For example, he audibly grunts in pain when stabbed or struck by Laurie during his final fight with her, whereas he used to be silent whenever he was injured.
- Regenerative Healing Factor: Michael's regenerative power seems to have been retconned or "nerfed" as his eye wound, his neck wound, and likely bullet wounds appear to still be there from 1978, and all of his injuries from his fingers shot off and face burned seemed to remain after years.
Abilities[]
- Weapons Proficiency: Uses not just knives but several other arsenals at his disposal.
- Master Tactician/Strategist: Displays this when it comes to his kills. He studies his victims and methodically makes them more terrified before going in for the kill.
- Combat Proficiency: He has shown that, despite being quite old, he is a very competent fighter.
- Master Tracker/Stalker: Demonstrates this by somehow locating Corey Cunningham to Laurie Strode's house in Ends.
- Knifemanship: Is very well-equipped with knives. They are his signature weapon.

Laurie Strode: Do you know that I pray every night that he would escape? Officer Frank Hawkins: What the hell do you do that for? Laurie Strode: So I can kill him. |

~ Laurie, Hawkins, and Sartain. |
“ | Laurie Strode: I always knew he'd come back. In this town, Michael Myers is a myth. He's the Boogeyman. A ghost story to scare kids. But this Boogeyman is real. An evil like his never stops, it just grows older. Darker. More determined. Forty years ago, he came to my home to kill. He killed my friends, and now he's back to finish what he started, with me. The one person who's ready to stop him. | „ |
~ Laurie. |
“ | Dr. Ranbir Sartain: I would suspect the notion of being a predator or the fear of becoming prey keeps both of them alive. | „ |
~ Ranbir Sartain speaking on the relationship between Laurie and Michael. |
“ | Dana Haines: Michael Myers is a human being who killed his sister when he was six years old. Then he came after you. We just want to know why. We want a glimpse inside his mind. That's why your story's so important. Laurie Strode: My story? Aaron Korey: Two failed marriages. Rocky relationship with your daughter and granddaughter. Laurie Strode: Michael Myers killed five people... and he's a human being we need to understand? I'm twice divorced... and I'm a "basket case". Aaron Korey: They're transferring him. Laurie Strode: Tomorrow, 7:30. Dana Haines: He'll be locked away until the end of days. Laurie Strode: That's the idea. |

Trivia[]
- Michael Myers makes a small cameo at the beginning of the 2022-present Blumhouse Productions logo.
- The 2018 timeline marks the first time in the original series that Michael truly died. Michael and Loomis were supposed to have been killed in Halloween 2 (1981), but this was retconned later on.
- In Halloween Kills near the end of the film, Karen steals Michael's mask and after he stands up and faces her, it's rumored that he can very faintly be heard saying "Give it back".
- In addition to the deaths counted above, Michael is implied to have killed the driver and two guards aboard the prison bus during his escape, as well as several people between Kills and Ends. These implied murders are made explicit in the novelizations of the films.
- As the 2018 timeline is a continuation of the original 1978 movie, this Michael can be considered the original and completely canon version of Michael; regardless of his counterparts from the Thorn and H20 timelines.
