Russellville


The gravedigger Dr. Loomis meets with at the cemetery mentions a murder in Russellville. None of the other films explore this murder; could make for an interesting story for a prequel to Halloween and maybe tie into how Michael became evil.

This killing in Russellville does conincide with the randomness of Michael just out of the blue, murdering his sister. Maybe an unexplored backstory where a particular evil does haunt the areas of Russellville and Haddonfield -- maybe this evil ties in with the evil in Halloween III; the spirit of Samhain. Perhaps sacricifes were made to honour Samhain in those two places and the ancient evil still somewhat lingers -- gets stronger ever year then dies a little. Maybe various attrocities committed near the areas of around the world even feeds this ancient evil. I know Halloween III was an entirely different story but I seem to recall Cochran implying that the mass sacrifice, one held every so many milleniums happens when certain other things occur which the planets somehow determine, like lots of attrocities, world wars, etc.
