THE LIGHTS ARE ON IN THE LLOYD HOUSE - A DECORATIVE SKELETON IS HANGING ON THE DOOR AND A CARVED PUMPKIN WITH A CANDLE INSIDE IS SITTING BY IT
A CAR PULLS INTO THE DRIVEWAY - THE DOORS OPEN AS DEREK AND MARTHA LLOYD EXIT THE VEHICLE - DEREK IS DRESSED AS FRANKENSTEIN AND MARTHA AS THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN
DEREK:
DEAR GOD I HOPE SHE'S OKAY
DEREK RUNS UP TO THE DOOR - HE TRIES THE HANDLE - IT'S LOCKED, HE RUMMAGES AROUND IN HIS COSTUME FOR THE KEYS - HE FINDS THEM AND PUTS THE RIGHT ONE IN THE LOCK - IT DOESN'T WORK
MARTHA:
SHE MUST HAVE THE KEYS IN THE DOOR
DEREK KNOCKS ON THE DOOR
DEREK:

AMANDA:

ALL THREE STAND IN SILENCE FOR A FEW SECONDS BEFORE DEREK TURNS TO MARTHA - TOUCHES HER ARM AND GESTURES TO THE DOOR, THEY BOTH WALK OUT OF THE ROOM TOGETHER LEAVING JULIE AND AMANDA ALONE IN THE ROOM
JULIE:

AMANDA LOOKS JULIE IN THE EYE AND SMILES
AMANDA:

AMANDA GOES BACK TO PACKING
EXT. HADDONFIELD GENERAL - AMBULANCE ENTRANCE
AN AMBULANCE BACKS UP INTO AN AMBULANCE ENTRANCE TO THE SIDE OF THE HOSPITAL - TWO PARAMEDICS GET OUT AND WALK AROUND TO THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE, THEY OPEN THE DOUBLE DOORS - INSIDE IS A BODY BAG ON A PORTABLE GURNEY
ONE PARAMEDIC TAKES THE LEFT SIDE OF THE GURNEY AND THE OTHER TAKES THE RIGHT
PARAMEDIC 01:

THEY LIFT THE GURNEY OUT OF THE AMBULANCE - THE ZIP HAS BEEN UNDONE AND THE PALE, WHITE MASK OF MICHAEL MYERS LOOKS UP AT THE PARAMEDICS - THE SECOND PARAMEDIC LETS GO OF THE GURNEY AND LETS OUT A SMALL YELP
PARAMEDIC 01:

THE FIRST PARAMEDIC TRIES TO PUT THE GURNEY BACK INTO THE AMBULANCE TO STEADY IT BUT THE WHEELS CATCH ON SOMETHING AND DON'T ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN
PARAMEDIC 01:
DAVIS, MIND GIVING ME A HAND HERE
THE SECOND PARAMEDIC - DAVIS IS CAUTIOUS ABOUT THE GURNEY - HE WON'T TAKE HIS EYES OF THE BODY BAG
PARAMEDIC 01:
GIVE ME A HAND!
DAVIS FINALLY GRABS THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE GURNEY - LIFTS IT OFF THE BACK OF THE AMBULANCE, LOWERS THE WHEELS ON THE BOTTOM OF IT AND PUTS IT DOWN ONTO THE GROUND
PARAMEDIC 01:
FUCK MAN... WHAT WERE YOU TRYIN TO DO
DAVIS:

PARAMEDIC 01:

DAVIS GETS INTO THE AMBULANCE WHILE THE OTHER PARAMEDIC SIMPLY SIGHS AND LOOKS DOWN AT MICHAEL'S BODY
PARAMEDIC 01:

BENNETT:

STEPHENSON:

STEPHENSON LIFTS THE TWEEZERS FROM THE MAN'S CHEST AND SHOWS BENNETT THE OBJECT SHE'S HOLDING WITH IT - A SMALL BULLET
STEPHENSON:

BENNETT PUTS THE HEART IN A METAL TRAY AND WALKS OVER TO A SECTION OF THE MORGUE THAT HAS BEEN CONVERTED INTO A SMALL OFFICE - WITH A DESK AND A FEW BOOKSHELVES
PARAMEDIC 01:
OH HE SURE IS ONE OF OUR OWN
STEPHENSON:

PARAMEDIC 01:

STEPHENSON:

STEPHENSON WALKS OVER TO THE BODY BAG - SHE NOTICES THE BODY BAG ZIP HAS BEEN LOWERED TO SHOW MICHAEL'S MASK
STEPHENSON:

PARAMEDIC 01:

PARAMEDIC 01:

STEPHENSON:
WHY
BENNETT WALKS OVER TO THE PARAMEDIC, HE HAS CLIPBOARD WITH A FORM ON IT IN HIS HANDS
PARAMEDIC 01:
A HOUSE ON BROOKE AVENUE WAS TORCHED PRETTY BADLY
STEPHENSON:
MAYBE THERE WAS NO ONE INSIDE
THE PARAMEDIC TAKES THE FORM OFF BENNETT
PARAMEDIC 01:
NICE TRY, NO I THINK THERE WAS A PARTY GOING ON SO THAT'S YOUR NIGHT DOWN THE DRAIN
STEPHENSON: (SARCASTICALLY)
OH NO AND I HAD SO MUCH PLANNED
THE PARAMEDIC SMIRKS, TAKES A PEN FROM HIS POCKET AND STARTS FILLING IN THE FORM - DR. STEVENSON LOOKS ON DEEP IN THOUGHT STARING AT MICHAEL'S MASK
STEPHENSON:
I WAS ACTUALLY INVITED BY HIS SISTER JUDITH TO COME TO HER HALLOWEEN PARTY
PARAMEDIC 01:
SHIT... YOU KNEW JUDITH MYERS
STEPHENSON:
I WAS A YEAR OLDER THAN HER, WE HUNG AROUND IN DIFFERENT GROUPS BUT SHE WAS VERY SOCIAL... A VERY NICE GIRL
BENNETT NOTICES SOMETHING ON THE BODY BAG, HE SLOWLY APPROACHES IT - DR. STEPHENSON AND THE PARAMEDIC PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE YOUNG ASSISTANT
PARAMEDIC 01:
THAT'S NOT WHAT I HEARD
STEPHENSON:
OH REALLY DO PRAY TELL
PARAMEDIC 01:
I HEARD JUDITH HAD MAJOR ISSUES AND WHILE HER PARENTS WERE OUT OF THE HOUSE, SHE USED TO BEAT MICHAEL
STEPHENSON:
BULLSHIT, I HEARD THE SAME DUMBASS STORY FROM REBBECCA WALLACE, SHE MADE UP THAT CRAP JUST AFTER MICHAEL WAS LOCKED UP
BENNETT:
AH DR. STEPHENSON
STEPHENSON:
WHAT IS IT MAX
BENNETT:
HIS CHEST IS MOVING
STEPHENSON:

SUDDENLY MICHAEL GRABS THE THROAT OF MAX BENNETT - THE LOOK IN BENNETT'S EYES ARE SIMPLY OF SHOCK AND FEAR AS MICHAEL SQUEEZES THEN TWISTS HIS NECK WITH HIS ONE HAND - A DEVASTATING SNAP IS HEARD THROUGHOUT THE ROOM
PARAMEDIC 01:
FUCK
MICHAEL UNZIPS THE REST OF HIS BODY BAG, THE PARAMEDIC TURNS TO DR. STEPHENSON
PARAMEDIC 01:
GET OUT OF HERE NOW
STEPHENSON
WHAT ABOUT YOU
PARAMEDIC 01:
JUST FUCKING RUN WILL YA!
STEPHENSON TRIES TO RUN BUT MICHAEL GRABS HER HAND, HE LOOKS UP AT HER AS HE GETS OUT OF THE BODY BAG
THE PARAMEDIC HITS MICHAEL ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH THE CLIPBOARD IN HIS HAND, THE METAL PAGE HOLDER AT THE TOP OF THE CLIPBOARD COLLIDES WITH MICHAEL'S HEAD
MICHAEL BREAKS DR. STEPHENSON'S HAND - SHE LETS OUT A CRY OF PAIN AS MICHAEL RELEASES HER HAND AND PAYS ATTENTION TO THE PARAMEDIC - WHO PROMPTLY WHACKS HIM ON THE HEAD WITH THE CLIPBOARD AGAIN - MICHAEL LOOKS UNFAZED BY THIS
THE PARAMEDIC DROPS THE CLIPBOARD AND PUNCHES MICHAEL IN THE FACE, MICHAEL GRABS THE PARAMEDICS ARM, RUNS HIS THUMB ALONG ONE OF THE SMALLER BONES, APPLIES PRESSURE AND TWISTS - THE PARAMEDIC SCREAMS OUT IN PAIN AND RETREATS TO THE FLOOR MERE FEET FROM DR. STEPHENSON
AS MICHAEL WALKS OVER TO THE DEAD BODY OF THE LATINO MAN, HE SEES THE METAL TRAY WHERE THE LATINO MAN'S HEART LIES - BESIDE IT IS A SCALPEL, A PAIR OF SCISSORS AND A SKULL CHISEL
MICHAEL GRABS ALL THREE SURGICAL TOOLS AND TURNS BACK TO LOOK AT THE PARAMEDIC ON THE GROUND
THE PARAMEDIC TRIES TO GET TO HIS FEET AS MICHAEL SLOWLY APPROACHES HIS BRANDISHING THE SCISSORS IN HIS RIGHT HAND AND THE OTHER TWO TOOLS IN HIS LEFT
THE PARAMEDIC TRIES TO HELP DR. STEPHENSON UP, TURNING HIS HEAD AWAY FROM MICHAEL HE LOOKS STEPHENSON IN THE EYE
PARAMEDIC 01:
COME ON
THE SCISSORS ARE FORCED THROUGH THE PARAMEDICS THROAT, BLOOD SPLATTERS OVER THE FLOOR AND STEPHENSON'S SHOES
MICHAEL RETRACTS THE BLADE AND LETS THE PARAMEDIC SLOUCH SIDEWAYS ONTO THE FLOOR GRASPING AT HIS NECK, MICHAEL TAKES A FEW STEPS TOWARD DR. STEPHENSON - SHE CRAWLS BACKWARD AND TRIES TO GET TO HER FEET - MICHAEL KICKS HER IN THE CHEST AND HOLDS HER DOWN WITH HIS FOOT
MICHAEL STABS STEPHENSON IN HER RIGHT WRIST WITH THE SCISSORS, MICHAEL TAKES THE SCALPEL FROM HIS LEFT HAND AND STABS IT INTO HER LEFT WRIST - STEPHENSON CRIES OUT IN PAIN, TEARS STREAMING DOWN HER FACE AS MICHAEL WALKS AROUND HER
STANDING AN INCH AWAY FROM STEPHENSON'S HEAD, HER BLOOD POURING OUT ALL OVER THE WHITE FLOOR, MICHAEL TAKES THE SKULL CHISEL INTO HIS RIGHT HAND AND CROUCHES NEXT TO HER
STEPHENSON:
STOP PLEASE
MICHAEL RAISES THE SKULL CHISEL ABOVE STEPHENSON'S HEAD – AND STRIKES WITH ONE FIRM BLOW – CRACKING DR. STEPHENSON'S SKULL
MICHAEL STARES IN SILENCE AT THE CORPSE OF DR. STEPHENSON FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN TAKES THE SCALPEL OUT OF STEPHENSON'S LEFT WRIST - WIPES IT ON HIS COVERALLS AND PUTS IT IN HIS POCKET
MICHAEL STANDS UP, WALKS OVER TO THE DOOR - OPENS IT AND LEAVES LIKE NOTHING HAD HAPPENED, THE BLOODY, BATTERED AND BROKEN BODIES OF BENNETT, STEPHENSON AND THE PARAMEDIC ARE STILL AND LIFELESS
INT. HADDONFIELD GENERAL - CORRIDOR
MICHAEL IS WALKING DOWN A CORRIDOR, UP HEAD THE CHIME OF THE ELEVATOR CAN BE HEARD - AS THE DOORS PART TWO NURSES - A MAN AND A WOMAN GET OUT

NURSE 1:
IF HE SAID THAT TO ME, I'D FREAKING KILL HIM
NURSE 2:

THE TWO NURSES LAUGH AND NOTICE MICHAEL WALKING TOWARD THEM
NURSE 1:
AH SIR, YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOWN HERE
NURSE 2:
IT'S PROBABLY BENNETT
NURSE 1:
NAH I DON'T THINK THAT'S BENNETT... THINK HE'S DRUNK OR SOMETHING
NURSE 2:
HE'S JUST TRYIN TO SCARE US
MICHAEL WALKS STRAIGHT UP TO THE TWO NURSES, HE PUTS HIS HAND IN HIS POCKET - PRODUCES THE SCALPEL AND SWIFTLY CUTS THE MAN'S THROAT THEN PLUNGES IT INTO THE WOMAN'S STOMACH - HE QUICKLY WITHDRAWS THE SCALPEL, PUTTING IT BACK INTO HIS POCKET AND LETS THE TWO NURSES BLEED TO DEATH AS HE PRESSES THE BUTTON TO CALL THE ELEVATOR

MICHAEL WALKS THROUGH THE GROUND FLOOR OF HADDONFIELD GENERAL - THERE ARE ABOUT TWENTY PEOPLE ON THE FLOOR, SOME NURSES, TWO DOCTORS AND THE REST PATIENTS TAKING A STROLL AND TALKING TO EACH OTHER
IN THE CORNER A NURSE IS EXPLAINING TO A MOTHER THAT SHE NEEDS TO TAKE HER SON BACK UP TO THE CHILDREN'S WARD, THE BOY IS BESIDE HER AND HAS A BROKEN ARM, HE LOOKS UP AT THE BATTERED MAN IN BLOODY COVERALLS WALKING ACROSS THE WHITE HOSPITAL FLOOR AND GRABS AT HIS MOTHER'S ARM
BOY:
MOMMY
THE MOM BRIEFLY TEARS HERSELF AWAY FROM TALKING TO THE NURSE
MOM:

THE MOTHER LOOKS ACROSS AT THE PERSON HER SON IS POINTING AT - AND RECOGNIZES INSTANTLY WHAT HER SON THINKS
MOM:
IT'S A MAN IN MASK, TOMMY... THAT'S ALL IT IS
THE LITTLE BOY - NINE YEAR OLD TOMMY DOYLE STILL LOOKS TERRIFIED THOUGH
MICHAEL PAYS NO ATTENTION TO THE SMALL BOY AND QUICKLY EXITS THE HOSPITAL THROUGH THE AUTOMATIC DOORS

MICHAEL WALKS OUT OF THE HOSPITAL, THERE ARE A FEW PEOPLE SMOKING OUTSIDE BUT MICHAEL WALKS BY AS IF HE HAD NEVER SEEN THEM, HE HAS A STRANGE DETERMINATION IN HIS STRIDE - AS IF HE HAS HIS MIND SET ON ONE GOAL AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO SEE IT COMPLETED
SUDDENLY MICHAEL STOPS WALKING, HE STANDS STILL FOR A FEW SECONDS ALMOST FROZEN IN THE MOMENT, THEN HE TIGHTENS HIS FIST, TAKES THE SCALPEL FROM HIS POCKET AND DROPS IT ONTO THE GROUND
SOMEHOW SENSING THAT HIS SISTER IS NO LONGER WITHIN HIS GRASP, HE TAKES HIS MASK OFF AND CROSSES THE ROAD, HE WALKS DOWN THE STREET ALMOST FADING INTO THE DARKNESS OF THE NIGHT AS HE RETREATS BACK HOME
