Halloween 9: Night of Samhain
Prologue
"My name is Tommy Doyle, and I'm a survivor. I don't mean your typical natural disaster survivor. I survived the attack of pure evil. I saw it that night, many years ago. Michael Myers. The world's most famous serial killer. He was more than just a serial killer. He was evil incarnated. An unstoppable cold hearted murderer. He couldn't be reasoned with or merciful in any way. He was the perfect killing machine.
"It all started when he killed his sister, Judith, on Halloween when he was six years old. He was sent to a mental institution. His doctor, Sam Loomis tried to reach him, but Michael was no longer remotely human.
"He escaped fifteen years later. He went after his other sister, Laurie Strode. She was babysitting me and Lindsey Wallace that night. We survived Michael's attack. Dr. Loomis had saved us. Both Michael and Dr. Loomis were caught in an explosion. Both were nearly burned to death.
"Michael fell into a coma. But he woke up ten years later. Laurie was said to be dead. But she had a daughter, Jamie Lloyd. Michael went after her. Dr. Loomis tried to protect her. The first time Michael attacked, he managed to protect her. But a year later Michael tried again. Both he and Jamie disappeared. Just vanished without a trace.
"Six years later, Jamie's body was found. Michael had returned. He'd killed her. She was supposedly the last of his bloodline. Or so we thought. Jamie had given birth. The child was to be Michael's final sacrifice. Luckily, I was able to save the baby. I had been doing research on Michael. I knew there had to be a reason for his madness. His never ending desire to kill his family. And his refusal to die. Finally I discovered it. Michael had been cursed with the Thorn of Thurisaz. It was a curse that caused someone to kill their entire family. And then I met the mastermind behind it all. Terence Wynn. The leader of the Thorn cult. It was him and his followers that had taken Michael and Jamie six years ago.
"Haddonfield became another bloodbath. Relatives of the Strodes, the family that had adopted Laurie, were living in the Myers house. Michael killed all of them. Or almost all of them. Dr. Loomis and I managed to save Kara Strode and her son Danny. For some reason, Wynn wanted Danny alive. I shudder at the thought of what Wynn had planned for him. He was the real monster. He had turned Michael Myers from a young innocent child to a killer drained of his humanity. Although we managed to get away, Dr. Loomis died at the hands of Michael. Then he disappeared again, along with the remaining members of the Thorn cult.
"Three years later, twenty years after his first attack on his sister, Michael discovered that Laurie was still alive. Not only that, but she had a son as well named John. She had faked her death, moved away, and changed her name to Keri Tate. But her past was discovered when Michael came for her again.
"This time Laurie fought back. But by a mistake in identity, she killed the wrong man, a father three. It completely broke Laurie down. She was committed to a mental institution. But that didn't stop Michael. He tracked her down. And this time he got her. Then he returned to Haddonfield. He returned to his old house. After he murdered the Strodes, no one wanted to have anything to do with that house again.
"That is, until an online entertainment program decided to put people in the Myers house to 'supposedly' try and find out why Michael went bad. If they only knew the truth. Michael wasn't happy with the unwanted guests. If he cared about one thing, it was his home. It was the place he had all his memories from when he was still human.
"After another killing spree, Michael was believed to be dead after he was caught in a fire. But he won't die. He never dies. He never will. Not while that evil is still within him. Michael is still out there. And he won't stop. Not until they're all dead."

A paramedic enters the room with yet another body. How many was this now? He forgot.
"Hey, how's it going." he said.
The coroner looked up at him. "You gotta be kidding me. Another one?
The paramedic smirked at her. "Hey, you got a celebrity here." he teased.
The coroner rolled her eyes. She was in no mood for his jokes. "Oh, let me get my autograph book." she said sarcastically.
"I'm serious. It's Michael Myers."
The coroner froze. Had she heard right? "What?"
The look on her face was priceless. "Get me a copy of that auto graph." the paramedic said leaving the room.
"Yeah sure." said the coroner, not knowing what else to say. Was he serious, or was this just another one of his games. She had to find out.
Slowly the coroner approached the body bag and opened it up. The smell of burned flesh greeted her, along with the sickening sight of Michael Myers' fried body. His mask was melted to his face.
The coroner couldn't believe it. Michael Myers was here. Right now in front of her. She had to see his face. The question was, would she be able to get the mask off without taking his face with him.
She would never find out, because at that moment, Michael's eyes snapped open as he let out a ghostly wail. His hand shot up and grabbed the coroner by the throat. She tried to cry out, but Michael had an iron grip on her throat. He sat up, got off the table, and slammed the corner against the wall.
Michael stared at the coroner for a moment before reached down and picked up a scalpel. The coroner's eyes widened with fear, right before he stabbed her in the gut. The coroner groaned inaudibly. Michael let go of the scalpel, leaving it in the coroner's gut. He grabbed her face and crushed it. Blood seeped through his fingers as his nails dug into the coroner's face, peeling the skin away. The coroner silently cried out as her skull was crushed. A moment later she was dead and Michael let her body fall to the floor.
Breathing heavily, Michael slowly turned around and walked out the door, once again disappearing into the night.
(A/N: Well that ends the first chapter. I know it's really just a repeat of what happened throughout the movies, but it was necessary. Next chapter will be some of the actual story. Until then, tell me what you think.)
