She is portrayed as having a very rebellious and sardonic personality. On Halloween night, she is babysitting Lindsey Wallace near Laurie, and the two friends gossip over the telephone throughout the evening. After leaving Lindsey with Laurie in order to go and meet her boyfriend Paul, Annie is murdered by Michael Myers, who strangles her in her car and slits her throat. Michael then sets up her corpse for Laurie to find, leaving her in the Wallaces' bed with Judith Myers' tombstone placed behind her body. Annie makes a cameo appearance in Halloween II as her father, Sheriff Brackett, closes her eyes as her corpse is being taken out of the house in a stretcher.

The character's more recent onscreen appearances occur in Rob Zombie's Halloween reboot and its sequel. As with the original, in the reboot, Annie is Laurie's sassy friend from high school and Lindsey's babysitter. However, her encounters with Michael Myers are different: walking home from school, she sees and cursingly threatens him from across the street, remarking that her 'daddy is the sheriff'. A few hours later, that Halloween night, she goes to leave Lindsey and her babysitting duties to Laurie in order to have a secret date with Paul, an older schoolmate (who did not make an onscreen appearance in the original film but is present in the remake), that soon arrives in his car and takes Annie back to Lindsey's house. There, Annie is kissing Paul while stopping his attempts to pull her sweater off, until she agrees and leaves herself topless. Preparing to have sex with Paul, Annie fails to see Michael nearing them until he attacks. While Paul is instantly killed, the frightened Annie makes a run for the front door, almost escaping, but is caught. Michael pulls her back inside, however, she manages to slip away and get a kitchen knife, attempting to face the towering killer. Her resistance quickly ends with Annie captured alive, exposed to Michael's crueler attacks; she is left lying on the floor brutally tortured and bleeding when Laurie brings Lindsey home, although her father finds her still alive some time later due to Laurie having called 9-1-1.

In the following sequel, Annie, although slightly disfigured with the scars from her near-fatal attack, is shown to be much more stable than Laurie, who is living with Annie and her father. On a Halloween night when she is at home alone, Michael breaks into the Brackett house, seizes the fleeing Annie then stabs her repeatedly off-screen. When she arrives home, Laurie finds Annie on the bathroom floor, naked and severely wounded by Michael. Annie then tries to persuade Laurie to leave the house, without success, until she dies.

 * Status: Deceased

Edith Myers is the name of Michael Myers and Judith Myers' mother according to the Halloween novelization from 1979 by Curtis Richards (a pseudonym used by author Richard Curtis). In the novelization it does not say that she is the biological mother of Laurie Strode since this was not revealed until the film's sequel premiered in 1981. It also mentions that sometime after Judith's death, she and her husband moved away to Indiana due to the media frenzy and rude stares they received from other townspeople. It goes on to mention that they continue to make payments on the house which has not been sold after the death of their eldest daughter.

Michael's mother could be seen briefly in the original Halloween after Judith's murder. She is seen with her husband after they find Michael holding the knife outside the family home. The mother stares at Michael, apparently in shock. After this scene in the original, the parents are never seen again. It is not until the release of Halloween II (1981) that the absence of Mr. and Mrs. Myers is explained. In the sequel, nurse Marion Chambers tells Dr. Loomis that two years after Judith's death (1963), Mr. and Mrs. Myers died (1965) and Laurie Strode was eventually adopted by the Strodes. Mrs. Myers is also the grandmother of Jamie Lloyd and John Tate, the latter only in H20 and Resurrection. She is also the great-grandmother of Stephen.

In the sequel, Halloween II, Michael broke into the elementary school and drew a picture of his parents together with his sister, Judith. He left the drawing behind after he used a butcher knife to stab his drawing of Judith. It was discovered by the police and brought to the attention of his psychiatrist, Samuel Loomis, who briefly examined it. This occurred before Dr. Loomis learned that Laurie Strode was Michael and Judith's younger sister.

The comic "The First Death of Laurie Strode" also uses this name - Edith appears pregnant in a flashback scene in which a young Michael fantasises about killing his unborn sibling.

Enda

 * Appears in the novel: Halloween (1979) by Curtis Richards

Enda is a cursed ghost that is behind Michael Myers affliction. Originally, he was a 15-year-old boy who lived in northern Ireland, thousands of years ago, during the time of the ancient Druids. He was apparently somewhat disfigured, as he had one skinnier arm and a twitching mouth due to the midwives botching his birth. He was also passionately in love with Princess Deirdre (Chief Gwynwyll's daughter). His father, brother, other kinsman, and uncle all cruelly mocked him for this, but when the Chieftain announced that his daughter became available for marriage, Enda took this opportunity to profess his love for Deirdre (believing he had a chance with her because his intentions were pure). However, a few days before Samhain, Enda attempted to tell her while she was collecting water from the small stream near their village. When he approached her, he startled her and she almost fell in the stream, Enda lunged forward amid trying to save her, but she cowered and screamed believing he was trying to rape her before running back to the village. This broke his heart so much that his love for her was replaced by hatred. On the night of Samhain, Deirdre was betrothed to a young warrior named Cullain and this fact only intensified the primal feeling of now afflicting Enda. During the mass celebration, in silence, he picked up a foot-long blade used for slaughtering livestock and waited by a bonfire for his opportunity to strike. Enda killed Cullain first by swiftly walking up behind him with the blade and stabbing him through the jugular several times, then subsequently killed Deirdre by brutally hacking and stabbing her torso. Enraged, the villagers who witnessed the horrible act almost immediately began to chase Enda and convened upon him, where the mob tore his body apart limb from limb, leaving only his heart and skull. On the next day, the 2nd day of Samhain, Chief Gwynwyll buried his daughter and her lover, then had a shaman take Enda's remains to the top of a mountain to perform a curse on his eternal soul before burying the remains in the “Field of Fiends”. The shaman placed a curse on Enda's soul, in which he was forced to wander the land until the end of time, becoming a ghost-like entity and inhabiting the bodies of different individuals throughout history, doomed to forever repeat the same brutal actions from that night upon scores of innocent souls for eternity. Over time, his ghost would wreak havoc throughout the ages, responsible for massacres abroad. Finally, on Halloween night of 1963, in Haddonfield Illinois, 6 year-old Michael Myers became afflicted with Enda's vengeful spirit, then murdered his sister and her lover. 15 years later, in 1978, he would escape incarceration and brutally slay 5 people, donning a white mask and a foot-long kitchen knife.

Later on, the police and Dr. Loomis enter the school and examine what Michael wrote. Dr. Loomis does his best to explain to the police what Samhain means.
 * The explanation for Michael's drive to kill and immortality from the novel apparently became inspiration for a similar cause in Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers but without mentioning Enda, instead incorporating the curse of Thorn and the inclusion of an evil cult that brought the curse to him.

He is the only one who knows his mother's true identity after she faked her own death and assumed the name Keri Tate in order to escape her brother, Michael Myers. However, he is also tired of her over-protectiveness and paranoia, and starts to rebel against her authority. He pretends to attend a school trip to Yosemite, but in fact remains at Hillcrest and throws a Halloween party with his friends and his girlfriend, Molly. Michael shows up and murders John's friends before attacking his nephew. John suffers a stab wound to the thigh, but he and Molly escape the school with Laurie's help. In Halloween: Resurrection, John appears briefly in a photograph kept by Laurie, who is put in a mental institution, but his mother is later killed by her brother.

Originally, the screenplay written by Kevin Williamson contained family connection between John Tate and Jamie Lloyd where they are depicted as a brother and sister and overall as Laurie's children.

Judith Margaret Myers, also known simply as Judy (November 10, 1947 - October 31, 1963; according to the headstone in John Carpenter's film), is the older sister of Michael Myers, as well as the biological sister of Laurie Strode. She was a victim of sororicide at the age of fifteen (10 days shy of sixteen). In Halloween H20, Keri Tate/Laurie Strode reveals to her boyfriend that her sister Judith was seventeen years old when she died. This was incorrect and most likely written in the script so that it would correlate with Laurie's age when Michael tried to murder her in 1978 and Laurie's son John's age in the present setting of 1998. Her murderer was her brother Michael, aged six.

Judith is only featured briefly in the opening scene. However, in the opening scene, she does imply that she is responsible for babysitting Michael and is notable for being Michael's first murder victim. The opening scene begins with her brother Michael standing outside of the Myers residence and watching her through a window making out with her boyfriend in the family living room. While in the living room, Judith's boyfriend asks if they are alone; Judith replies "Ummm... Michael's around some place". She then turns her head and quickly scans the room. While doing that, her boyfriend picks up Michael's clown mask that was lying around and leans into Judith's face when she turns to face him. This makes Judith laugh and distracts her, causing her to forget all about Michael. Her boyfriend then suggests that they go upstairs to have sex and Judith agrees. Michael watches Judith and her boyfriend trot up the stairs. He then moves to the front of the house and looks up at Judith's bedroom window only to see her light go off. At that time, he walks through the back door and into the kitchen, opens a drawer, and pulls out a large butcher knife. Michael then waits for the boyfriend to leave. Once the boyfriend leaves, he goes upstairs and enters Judith's bedroom where she is seen sitting in front of her vanity, brushing her hair and singing to herself. Michael stands directly behind Judith who notices Michael in her vanity mirror; she turns around and says "Michael!" in an annoyed voice. Michael stabs her repeatedly in the abdomen. She falls off her chair and onto the floor, and dies. Michael leaves her bedroom and walks out the front door. When he is outside, the parents arrive home to find Michael holding a knife and he is sent to Smith's Grove Sanitarium for the crime.

Fifteen years later (1978), after escaping from the sanitarium, the adult Michael steals Judith's gravestone and places it behind Annie Brackett's corpse. Also, many of the children from Haddonfield believe that the old Myers house is haunted because Judith died there. Although Judith does not appear in any of the Halloween sequels, her death is repeatedly mentioned by other characters in other installments of the Halloween film series, and her final moments before her murder were reenacted by her niece Jamie Lloyd in Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers in order to lure Michael back to his abandoned childhood home.

She has a larger role in Rob Zombie's Halloween. She is still the older sister of Michael and Laurie whose name is Angel Myers. She verbally abuses Michael in several scenes and interacts with her boyfriend, Steve Haley, until Michael murders them both on Halloween. However, Michael's idolization of Judith was transferred to his mother, Deborah, in the remake. Also, Judith's boyfriend mistakenly calls Ronnie White her father. Judith replies by saying he is not her father and that her biological father is in Heaven. Unlike in the original film, Judith was not Michael's first murder victim. She died as a result of being stabbed multiple times with a butcher knife and her murder was much bloodier than it was in the original. It involved a chase scene in which a wounded Judith exits her bedroom and walks down the hallway while Michael follows her and further slashes her until she collapses, dying.

She is then kidnapped by the supposed Thorn cult who possibly planned to use her for their genetic experiments involving in-vitro fertilization, but is soon rescued by Tommy.

Originally, Kara's fate varied in various script drafts. In the first draft, Kara is murdered by her son Danny in the Haddonfield Bus Depot, while the near final draft had the film ending with Tommy and Kara driving away. The film as released ends with Kara and Tommy driving off with the children, Danny and Stephen.

Laurie Strode is a high school student in the original film that Michael stalks after she drops off a key at his former house, so her father can sell it. This character returns in Halloween II, Halloween: H20, Halloween Resurrection, 2018's Halloween and its sequel Halloween Kills. Michael succeeds in murdering Laurie in Halloween Resurrection. Halloween II and its later installments would portray Laurie as Michael Myers' and Judith Myers' younger sister. In Halloween II, Laurie says she does know that she was adopted and has a few dreams that offer vague insights into her real identity. The first dream she has is of when she was a little girl, with her adoptive mother saying with a tone of annoyance "I'm not your real mother! Stop asking me questions!" The second dream shows her walking into a large room where a pre-teen Michael is seen sitting in a chair and turning to look at her. When she does find out that she is being stalked by Michael Myers, she asks "Why me?!" It is revealed in Halloween: H20 that she had learned of her relation to the Myers family sometime after the sequel, as she tells her boyfriend that she is the younger sister of Michael Myers and Judith Myers, which led her to change her name to Keri Tate so that her brother could not find her. She is the mother of Jamie Lloyd and John Tate, the latter one only in H20 and Resurrection. She is the grandmother of Stephen Lloyd from Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers.

2018's Halloween reboot disregards her as the sister of Michael Myers and establishes her as the mother turned survivalist of Karen Strode and grandmother of Allyson Nelson.

Laurie Strode in Rob Zombie's version of Halloween is revealed to be the younger sister of Michael Myers, which she discovers in the following film, Halloween II. Her name before being adopted by the Strodes was Angel Myers and she was nicknamed "Boo" by a young Michael.

According to the information provided by Marion Chambers in the sequel Halloween II (1981) with regards to Laurie Strode's true identity, she was two years old in 1963 at the time of Judith's death and Michael's institutionalization in Smith's Grove - Warren County Sanitarium. Laurie Strode most likely would have been born some time in the year 1961.

 * Died in: Halloween Kills

Sheriff Leigh Brackett is the Haddonfield sheriff who is contacted by Dr. Loomis about his former patient Michael Myers, who has escaped from Smith's Grove and returned home. The two begin their search at Michael's house, where Loomis tries to warn the skeptical sheriff of the danger Myers poses, explaining that Michael is pure evil and capable of further violence, despite years of catatonia. Sheriff Brackett patrols the streets while Loomis waits and watches the house, expecting Michael to return there. Loomis' prediction comes true, as Brackett's daughter Annie becomes one of Michael's victims. Sheriff Brackett also appears in the sequel, Halloween II, once again played by Cyphers. In the film, while with Loomis, Brackett receives news of the death of his daughter, Annie. Blaming Loomis for her death, Sheriff Brackett goes home to tell his wife about it, leaving Deputy Gary Hunt in charge to help Loomis. Brackett is referenced in Halloween 4, in which an officer tells Loomis that Brackett retired in 1981 and moved to St. Petersburg, Florida, his position being taken over by Sheriff Ben Meeker. Brackett returns in Halloween Kills, reuniting with Tommy Doyle while expressing worry about attempts to form a mob to try to hunt down Michael. Ultimately, after the mob seemingly kills Michael, he arises to take down the mob piece by piece, with Brackett having his throat slit open by Myers.

Brackett did not appear in another Halloween film until Rob Zombie's remake, in which he is played by Brad Dourif. In this version of the story, Sheriff Lee Brackett is directly responsible for the adoption of Michael Myers' baby sister by the Strode family, having taken the child away following her mother's suicide. His daughter Annie survives Michael's killing spree, and he discovers her half-naked and tortured following Michael's attack. In the sequel to the remake, Halloween II, Sheriff Brackett has brought Laurie to live with him and Annie after the events of the previous film. Halfway through the film, Brackett tries to locate Laurie and tell her that she is Michael's sister before she finds out from Dr. Loomis' book, but he is too late. After receiving a 911 call from his home, he finds his daughter's body following Michael's rampage. As in the original film's sequel, Brackett angrily blames Loomis for Annie's death and Laurie's jeopardy. Brackett later uses a rifle to shoot Michael after Dr. Loomis lures Michael into view, which leads to Michael's death at the hands of Laurie.

Lindsey and Tommy later open the door for Laurie as she is chased back into the house by Michael. After locking themselves in the bathroom and Laurie being attacked twice, Laurie tells them to go to the Mackenzies' house. She appears in Halloween II in a recap of the first film's final moments. She also appears in Rob Zombie's remake in a role much like the one she has in the original. Richards reprised the role for Halloween Kills (2021), which follows directly from the previous film, 40 years after the events of the original film as part of its own continuity. She is depicted attending the 40th anniversary of Michael's arrest and imprisonment along other survivors such as Tommy and Marion Chambers.

Lynda Van Der Klok appears as one of Laurie Strode's best friends. In the original film, Lynda is a good-natured but slightly vapid and hedonistic "valley girl" type. Along with her boyfriend Bob, she goes to the Wallace house on Halloween night to meet up with Annie and Paul as the pair had planned earlier under the pretense of smoking marijuana and having sex. However, she is not aware that Annie has been killed by Michael Myers. She and Bob then proceed to make out on the couch, unaware that Michael is watching them. Going upstairs, Lynda and Bob have sex, before Lynda sends him downstairs to get some beer. However, Michael ambushes Bob, impaling him with a knife. He then disguises himself as Bob in a ghost costume, using a sheet and Bob's glasses. An oblivious Lynda teases him, only to become irritated and calls Laurie on the phone to see if she knows where Annie or Paul are. Michael walks to Lynda while she is still on the phone, and just as Laurie answers, Michael grabs the phone cord and wraps it around Lynda's neck, strangling her. Laurie can hear Lynda squealing for help, but thinks that Annie is making a prank call. Lynda falls to the floor and dies, and her body is later discovered by Laurie, along with the bodies of Annie and Bob.

Lynda makes a cameo appearance in Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends as a photograph of her is shown along with Bob.

In the remake, Lynda, an ex-cheerleader, is a wild, foul-mouthed girl. She is best friends with Laurie and Annie. She has an outgoing, confident personality while also appearing very egotistical and opportunistic. On Halloween night, she and her boyfriend Bob sneak into the vacant Myers house for a wild night of sex, unaware that Michael is on the balcony watching them. After they have sex, Bob goes outside to his van to get more beer. He comes back inside dressed up as a ghost to surprise Lynda, but is ambushed by Michael, pushed up against the wall and stabbed. Lynda, who has not heard the attack because of the loud music she is playing, picks up her cell phone and decides to call Laurie. After Lynda finishes speaking to Laurie, Michael enters the room disguised in Bob's ghost costume and Lynda asks for her beer, but he ignores her. Lynda keeps asking him and he eventually holds his hand out to her. She is annoyed and gets up fully nude, grabbing the beer from him and berating him with profanities, adding that he (the supposed Bob) is bad in bed. Michael then takes off the ghost costume and begins to walk towards Lynda, who has her back to him and does not see him coming. He quickly grabs hold of her neck, choking her until she is dead. He then carries her away. Later that night, Laurie discovers Lynda's naked corpse set up in front of Deborah Myers' headstone and a jack-o'-lantern. She tries to help her and wake her up, before realizing she is dead.

In Rob Zombie's Halloween II, Lynda is the subject of a lewd conversation between a pair of EMTs who are transporting Michael's body in an ambulance, and a photograph of her is shown later when her father Kyle blamed Dr. Loomis for her death. He pulled a gun on Loomis with the intent of killing him. Security guards quickly apprehended and disarmed Kyle, pulling the man out of the store. It was later learned that the gun was not loaded.

Marion Chambers makes her first appearance in Halloween as she drives Dr. Samuel Loomis to Smith's Grove. As they approach the main gate at the sanitarium, Dr. Loomis steps out of the car in an attempt to see why the gate is left unmanned. It is during that time that Michael Myers attacks and tries to kill Marion, but is unsuccessful as she runs out into the rain. She also appears in Halloween II, where she escorts Dr. Loomis to a Marshal's car and tells him that Laurie Strode is the younger sister of Michael and Judith Myers. They turn around and head to the hospital. As Dr. Loomis finds Laurie and shoots Michael, he tells Marion to get the police while he and the Marshal try to help Laurie. After Michael kills the Marshal and there is an explosion, Marion escorts Laurie to an ambulance. Her final appearance in the series for two decades was in Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (an alternate sequel to first two films), where it is revealed she took care of Dr. Loomis until he died. She dies in the opening of the film after having her throat slit by Michael.

Michael Audrey Myers (Shown in paperwork during H4 as Michael M Myers) (born c. 1957 (said to be October 19 in Halloween: Resurrection)) is a serial killer and the primary antagonist of the Halloween franchise. He first appears as a young boy who murders his sister, Judith Myers, and then, fifteen years later, returns home to Haddonfield to murder more teenagers. In John Carpenter's Halloween, it appears that Michael comes from a middle-class family living in the suburbs of the fictional town of Haddonfield, Illinois. There is no background to explain why Michael, at the age of 6 years, killed his older sister, Judith Myers and stopped talking (October 31, 1963). As a result of his heinous crime, Michael is institutionalized in the fictional Smith's Grove - Warren County Sanitarium. It is implied that Michael is mentally ill and suffering from schizophrenia when Dr. Loomis tells Nurse Marion Chambers that he wants Michael to be on thorazine when he is seen by the judge for a court trial. The sequel of 1981 alludes to the possibility that Michael has something more going on with him than mental illness when he writes the Celtic word Samhain in blood on the elementary school chalk board. In the 1979 novel by Curtis Richards, Michael's need to kill is caused by spirit possession and relates to the festival of Samhain. This is conveyed through a dream that Michael has, which happens to be very similar to a murder that took place during a Samhain festival in ancient Ireland (it is mentioned in the novel's prologue). Also, in the novel a young Michael hopes that by killing Judith, the voice inside his head will go away.

In the remake by Rob Zombie, Michael's urge to kill is caused in part by his dysfunctional home life. His mother, Deborah Myers, works as a stripper and is in a relationship with Ronnie White, who is a drunk and verbally abusive. Judith Myers has a larger role in the film and is an outspoken and promiscuous teenager. However, it is revealed from the beginning that Laurie Strode is his sister and that Michael is very fond of her. Michael's first murder victim is a school bully, Judith being his fourth and last before being institutionalized.

Known relatives of his based on 1978's Halloween, Halloween II (1981), Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers and H20, include Mr. and Mrs. Myers, Judith Myers (his first victim), Laurie Strode, Jamie Lloyd, Stephen Lloyd, and John Tate, the latter only in H20 and Resurrection.

According to the information provided in Halloween (1978), Michael Myers, based on the date of Judith's murder (October 31, 1963) and his age at the time in which it occurred (6 years old), he would have been born sometime in the year 1957.

Following Rob Zombie's Halloween reboot, relatives include Judith Myers, Laurie Strode, and Deborah Myers.

In Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, it is revealed when Dr. Hoffman is typing a report on him, that his middle name is Audrey. The same middle name is given in one of the additional scenes created for the network-TV airing of the original film, as one of the doctors at the Smith's Grove sanitarium reads to Loomis a judge's ruling that Michael be remanded to their custody.

In the original Halloween from 1978, Michael is 6 years old when he commits his first murder and has light brown hair and brown eyes. In Rob Zombie's remake, Michael is 10 years old when he commits his first murder and has blonde hair and blue eyes.

While at Mrs. Blankenship's house, Michael was inflicted with the Curse of Thorn, a violent curse, that forced the bearer to kill their family members. Thirty-two years later, Mrs. Blankenship, a victim of the Curse of Thorn herself, exclaimed "The voice came to him, the night he killed his sister!"

Some say this information contradicts what Judith had told her boyfriend in the original film. In that film, the boyfriend is in the Myers residence and asks if they are alone. Judith states "Ummm...Michael's around some place." This suggests that Judith might have been babysitting Michael. However, since Michael's first point-of-view appearance had him walking toward the Myers house from directly across the street, it could also be inferred that Michael had just come from the home of Minnie Blankenship where he had been inflicted with the curse that drove him to murder Judith. Also, there was no mention of Laurie, because her being their sibling was not revealed until the sequel.

The character's name is a reference to an unseen character in Halloween III: Season of the Witch where the character Ellie remarks that her father has an appointment with a Minnie Blankenship.

In November 1987, Jamie's mother, Laurie Strode, and father, are apparently killed in a car accident. As a result, Laurie's friends Richard and Darlene become Jamie's foster parents. Rachel is older than Jamie by nine years and becomes a surrogate sister to her.

At 4:00 AM on Monday October 31, 1988, Rachel sees Jamie is wide awake in the living room, the fourth night the girl has had difficulty sleeping. Rachel insists that Jamie return to bed. Jamie questions if Rachel loves her, and Rachel answers that she does. However, Jamie still wonders if her adoptive sister loves her as a real sibling; Rachel admits that she and Jamie are not real sisters, but that she does not love her any less because of that.

At first, she sees Jamie as a problem to her plans to be with her boyfriend Brady on Halloween. Throughout the film, Rachel takes Jamie out to pick an outfit to go trick-or-treating and flirts with Brady. She eventually protects Jamie from her uncle and assists in seemingly killing him.

Ellie Cornell was keen on returning as Rachel in Halloween 5, although she became disappointed to learn that her character would be killed off early in the film.

Teddy

 * Portrayed by Wendy Wessberg
 * Appears in: Halloween III: Season of the Witch
 * Status: Deceased
 * Died in: Halloween III: Season of the Witch

Teddy was the coroner who worked in the same hospital as Dr. Daniel Challis, and has history with him. On October 23, a man named Harry Grimbridge is murdered after being brought in to the hospital clutching a Halloween mask and his killer blows himself up in a car. Four days later on the 27th, Dr. Challis decides to set out with Harry's daughter Ellie to investigate the murder. Before he leaves, Challis talks to Teddy about the killer who was dressed like a businessman and was able to rip apart Harry's skull with inhuman strength despite not appearing to be on drugs as the police think otherwise. Then Challis asks Teddy to look into the killer's autopsy for clues and let him know if she finds anything unusual.

As Dan and Ellie stay at a motel in the town of Santa Mira on October 29, Dr. Challis calls Teddy and she tells him the autopsy results will be delayed as it appears they have been examining charred car parts by mistake due to mixed-up envelopes, and the collected ashes analyzed were metal and plastic shavings. The following morning, Dan checks in with Teddy again. She tells him the autopsy has gotten strange because no human remains were found and nothing in the ashes indicates there was ever a body in the car when it exploded, believing someone must have tampered with the evidence. Dan asks her to stop with the autopsy and instead look into Conal Cochran, the owner of the Halloween novelty and mask making company Silver Shamrock, where the jack-o'-lantern mask Harry Grimbridge was holding came from. On Halloween night, Teddy tries to call Dan back at the motel but the number is disconnected. Then she calls a colleague and asks him to come in the next morning to confirm her findings. Unbeknownst to Teddy, a man in a suit sneaks into her office and removes an electric drill from a drawer. As she looks at one of the parts of the killer's charred car, Teddy makes the startling realization that some of the parts she has been looking at were not from the car but the killer. As soon as Teddy tries to call the sheriff, she is stopped and attacked by a businessman similar to the one who killed Harry. The man forces Teddy onto the floor and pins her down as she struggles. Then the businessman turns on the drill and forces it into Teddy's ear, killing her.

According to Tommy Lee Wallace on the film's Blu-ray audio commentary, Teddy was added to the film during re-shoots. Originally, there would have been scenes of Dr. Challis repeatedly talking to an unknown and unseen character on the phone about the coroner's report on Harry Grimbridge's killer. Wallace decided to flesh out the story some more and actually show the character Dan is talking to with the addition of Teddy. This also made it necessary to add an early scene showing Dan and Teddy talking to each other and establishing past history between them through their dialogue.

According to production materials in AMPAS library files, Teddy's full name is "Teddy Bryant".

Dr. Terence Wynn

 * Portrayed by Robert Phalen (1978), Don Shanks (5), Mitch Ryan (The Curse), and Sybil Danning (2007)
 * Appears in: Halloween (1978), Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, Halloween (2007)
 * Status: Alive (excluding reboot timeline) / Deceased (reboot timeline)
 * Died in: Halloween (2007)

Despite being the administrator of Smith's Grove - Warren County Sanitarium, Dr. Wynn only makes a short appearance in the first Halloween film. In it, he is seen walking with Dr. Loomis towards his car. During the scene, Dr. Loomis expresses his anger that Michael Myers was able to escape from the facility the previous night. Dr. Wynn says that Michael could not have gotten far because he could not drive. Dr. Loomis says ironically "He was doing very well last night! Maybe, someone around here gave him lessons." This exchange gains additional meaning after the revelation in the sixth film that Dr. Wynn had been watching over Michael since his incarceration, and it is probably he who taught Michael how to drive.

Although it was unknown at the time, Dr. Wynn made his next appearance in Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. The film features a mysterious "Man in Black" arriving in Haddonfield, who has a tattoo identical to one which Michael has. In the climax of the film, the Man in Black, in his role as Michael's guardian, kills everyone at the Haddonfield police station with a machine gun and afterwards rescues Michael from the police station and eventually abducts Jamie who was also there. This film did not reveal the Man in Black's identity to the audience, and at the time the film went into production, the writers themselves had not decided who the Man in Black actually was.

In the sixth film, it is revealed that the Man in Black is Dr. Wynn, and that he is the head of a cult which supposedly cursed Michael into killing his whole family, therefore explaining the reason for his constant pursuit of his sister and later his niece. In the end, Wynn turns out to have been secretly using Michael's DNA to create the curse of Thorn in its purest form that he believed manifested in his genes. After failing in DNA and in-vitro fertilization experiments, tested on the female patients of Smith's Grove Sanitarium (and leading to stillborn fetuses), the experiment became a success when tested on now 15-year-old Jamie Lloyd, who gives birth to a live baby. In the Theatrical Cut, Michael kills him in an operating room along with 9 other doctors from Smiths Grove, though Wynn's death is not seen onscreen.

In the Producer's Cut of the sixth film however, Dr. Wynn and his staff follow their cult aspect more closely and planned on making Jamie's baby Michael's final sacrifice during a ritual. Tommy Doyle however interrupts the ritual and soon paralyzes Michael with rune stones, releasing him of his curse. Later, Dr. Loomis approaches the person he thinks is Michael Myers relieved that it was now all over but to Loomis' surprise, Michael has switched clothes with Wynn and left him lying there while he makes his escape into the night. Loomis takes the mask off Wynn, and a dying Wynn grabs Loomis' arm, telling him, "It's your game now, Dr. Loomis." Loomis then looks at his wrist and sees that the Thorn tattoo is now on his arm, symbolizing his new role as the leader of the Thorn Cult. Dr. Wynn is not featured in the subsequent films, which ignore the previous three films, thereby eliminating the Wynn/Thorn plotline.

In the reboot of the franchise, Wynn also appears briefly, but is a female nurse, not a male doctor. In the film, she is asked to watch a young Michael Myers while Dr. Loomis walks Mrs. Myers to her car. Nurse Wynn teases Michael and is killed when he pulls a fork from his food tray and stabs her in the neck.

 * Status: Alive (excluding 2018 timeline) / Deceased (2018 timeline)
 * Died in: Halloween Kills

Tommy Doyle in the original Halloween is an eight-year-old boy being babysat by Laurie Strode alongside Lindsey Wallace. Tommy is afraid of the bogeyman and constantly asks questions about him to Laurie, who claims he does not exist. When he sees Michael Myers across the street at the Wallace house, Tommy believes it is the bogeyman, but Laurie dismisses his suspicions. When Laurie eventually goes over to the Wallace house to see what her friends Annie and Lynda are doing, she is attacked by Michael. She runs back to the Doyle house, screaming at Tommy to wake up and unlock the door, and he does so. Laurie eventually sends him and Lindsey to find help, and their screams alert Dr. Loomis to Michael's location. Halloween II briefly features Tommy in footage from the first film.

In Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, a 25-year-old Tommy is a reclusive individual who, following the events of Halloween 4 and 5, becomes obsessed with Michael. Tommy theorizes that Michael's obsession with killing his family members stems from the Curse of Thorn, and vows to protect Jamie Lloyd's baby, the latest in the Myers bloodline. His search leads him to the Smith's Grove Sanitarium, where he and Dr. Loomis uncover the supposed "Cult of Thorn". Tommy battles Michael, beating him with a pipe, and escapes with baby Stephen along with Kara and Danny Strode.

Tommy (last name spelled "Doyal" per the credits) appears in the 2007 reboot, where the character has a similar role to the one he has in the original.

Farrands compares Tommy's arc in that film to Laurie Strode's in Halloween H20: that of a traumatized victim who must stop running and face their worst fear. He claims that this was supposed to be more obvious, with flashbacks to the original film, but the development of the film resulted in many of those scenes being lost. Farrands says that he brought Tommy back as a way of bridging the gap between the sequels and the first film. His intent was for Tommy to be the successor to Dr. Loomis, to act as a "voice of sanity...a kind of modern Van Helsing, the fearless Michael hunter!", a role he believed was missing from H20 and Resurrection.

He was killed near the end of Halloween Kills when Michael gets back up and massacres his mob, who had seemingly killed him.
