On a cold Halloween night in 1963, six-year-old Michael Myers brutally murdered his 17-year-old sister, Judith. He was sentenced and locked away inside a sanitarium under the care of child psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis. On October 30, 1978, Myers escapes and makes his way back home to Haddonfield, turning a night of tricks and treats into something much more sinister for three young women, including Laurie Strode, the star-making role for Jamie Lee Curtis.

John Carpenter’s seminal 1978 classic Halloween premiered in cinemas and on drive-in screens over four decades ago, changing the landscape of horror cinema. It stunned audiences worldwide and has since inspired countless films in this genre.
