Halloween plot

"The night he came home!"

Halloween 1963. 6-year-old Michael Myers takes a knife from the kitchen drawer and walks up the stairs, where he kills his older sister. He is then admitted to a psychiatric clinic. He is now 21 and it has to be determined whether he can be released. The doctor who cared for him all these years thinks that Michael should never be released. But Michael does not wait for the investigation and escapes. He returns home where he continues to kill on Halloween.
