(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”.

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. * In the film '' Halloween II'' (1981), Michael Myers breaks into Haddonfield Elementary School.

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.

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.

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),

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.

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.

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

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.

to create the curse of Thorn in its purest form that he believed manifested in his genes. After failing in DNA and

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, and that the Thorn Curse has now passed on to him. Dr. Wynn is not featured in the subsequent films, which ignore the previous three films, thereby eliminating the Thorn Timeline. In the first 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
