==Plot==
On [[Halloween]] night 1963, in the town of Haddonfield, [[Illinois]], six-year-old [[Michael Myers (Halloween)|Michael Myers]], dressed in a clown costume, [[sororicide|stabs his older sister Judith to death]] with a kitchen knife in their home. Fifteen years later, on October 30, 1978, Michael's psychiatrist, [[Samuel Loomis|Dr. Samuel Loomis]], and his colleague, Marion Chambers, arrive at Warren County's Smith's Grove Sanitarium to escort Michael to court. Michael escapes the sanitarium, stealing Loomis' car in the process, and returning home to Haddonfield.
 
On the road, Michael kills a mechanic for his coveralls. He then steals a mask, knives, and rope from a local hardware store. The following day, on Halloween, Michael begins [[stalking]] high school student [[Laurie Strode]] after she drops off a key at his former house, so her father can sell it. Throughout the day, Laurie notices Michael following her, but her best friends [[Annie Brackett]] and [[List of Halloween characters|Lynda Van der Klok]] dismiss her concerns. Loomis arrives in Haddonfield in search of Michael, visiting Judith's [[grave]] in the local [[cemetery]], only to find her [[tombstone]] stolen. He meets with Haddonfield's [[sheriff]], Leigh Brackett, Annie's father, and they both go to Michael's house, where Loomis tries to convince Sheriff Brackett about the danger Michael poses. Sheriff Brackett patrols the streets while Loomis waits at the house, expecting Michael to return.
