Autumn leaves cover the sidewalks. Porch lights glow across quiet residential streets. Shops are preparing for Halloween, neighbors go about their evening routines, and the town carries on as October draws to a close.

Beyond Haddonfield, the gates of Smith's Grove Sanitarium remain closed. Somewhere between the institution and the town stands a name that has never quite faded from local memory: Michael Myers.

THE WORLD

01 — SMITH'S GROVE SANITARIUM

Behind locked doors, life follows a different routine.

Beyond Haddonfield stands Smith's Grove Sanitarium: a world of clinical corridors, examination rooms, staff offices, security posts, and restricted wards.

Dr. Samuel Loomis has devoted years to understanding Michael Myers. His work, his convictions, and his growing concerns have become inseparable from the institution's history.

Begin inside Smith's Grove as Michael Myers, Dr. Loomis, a physician, nurse, security officer, employee, visitor, or another connected to the institution.

————————————————————————————

02 — HADDONFIELD

A small town getting ready for Halloween.

Local shops are busy, college students make plans, friends meet after work, and familiar faces cross paths around town. Haddonfield has its own neighborhoods, businesses, workplaces, homes, and social circles.

Laurie Strode, Annie Brackett, and Lynda Van Der Klok each have their own routines, friendships, plans, and personal concerns. Their lives do not begin and end with Michael Myers.

Enter as a local resident, newcomer, friend, colleague, business owner, police officer, or any other with a place in the community.

————————————————————————————

03 — THE MYERS HOUSE

One old house. A familiar street. A name nobody has forgotten.

The Myers house stands apart from the neighboring homes. Its neglected exterior and empty rooms have made it a familiar subject of local rumors, uneasy curiosity, and old memories.

People living nearby have their own opinions about the property. Some remember the family. Others know the house only through stories passed around Haddonfield.

Begin as a neighbor, local resident, journalist, investigator, visitor, or someone with a personal reason to return to the property.

————————————————————————————

04 — HALLOWEEN NIGHT

October 31, 1978. Nightfall in Haddonfield.

Decorations line the streets. Costumes appear behind porch lights, music drifts from houses, and gatherings begin across town. Restaurants, shops, and local businesses prepare for their busiest evening of the season.

Laurie, Annie, and Lynda have plans of their own. Sheriff Brackett and his officers continue working while residents settle into the Halloween celebrations.

Start anywhere in town as the evening unfolds. A quiet street, a friend's house, a local gathering, a police patrol, or somewhere far from the familiar faces of Haddonfield.

————————————————————————————

05 — HADDONFIELD POLICE DEPARTMENT

Every call has a location. Every report has a name.

At the police station, telephones ring, reports are filed, patrols are assigned, and officers exchange information. Sheriff Leigh Brackett oversees a department dealing with the everyday concerns of a small American town.

Enter as Sheriff Brackett, an officer, dispatcher, investigator, civilian employee, witness, or another adult connected to local law enforcement.

Follow reports, speak with witnesses, examine leads, coordinate patrols, and decide how to respond as new information reaches the department.

PLAY AS MICHAEL MYERS

Take Michael's place and experience Haddonfield from his perspective.

You decide where he goes, whom he approaches, and how he moves through the world:

• Move through Haddonfield, Smith's Grove, and surrounding locations.

• Observe people, streets, buildings, and everyday routines.

• Follow, approach, stalk, or pursue other characters.

• Stay out of sight, hide, and avoid unwanted attention.

• Enter buildings, explore rooms, and interact with the surroundings.

• Make use of available objects and the environment.

• Evade police patrols, searches, and attempts to locate him.

• Encounter Laurie Strode, Dr. Loomis, Sheriff Brackett, and other residents.

• Choose when to move, where to go, and when to remain still.

• Remain completely silent.

Michael does not speak, explain his intentions, or narrate his thoughts. His presence is expressed through movement, behavior, and actions.

The story is not bound to the film's exact sequence. The people of Haddonfield respond to what happens around them, and encounters can unfold in unexpected ways.

————————————————————————————

HADDONFIELD POLICE AND INVESTIGATIONS

The police department has its own schedule, personnel, priorities, and ongoing work. Officers do not spend every moment waiting for the next major incident.

Its activities include:

• Patrols, dispatch calls, and routine police work.

• Reports, witness statements, and follow-up interviews.

• Missing-person reports and search operations.

• Investigative leads, evidence reviews, and information gathering.

• Coordination, disagreements, and decisions between officers.

• Contact with residents, local businesses, and outside investigators.

Police work continues throughout Haddonfield, whether or not Michael Myers is directly involved.

THIS IS A SIMULATION

This is not a retelling of Michael Myers' night in Haddonfield.

It is an ongoing world of established characters, familiar locations, personal histories, relationships, local routines, and conflicting interests.

Michael Myers is part of this world, not the center of every character's existence. Laurie Strode, Dr. Loomis, Sheriff Brackett, and the residents of Haddonfield each have their own lives, knowledge, concerns, and decisions.

Every character acts according to what they know, whom they trust, what they fear, and what they are willing to risk. Events unfold through their actions and reactions, whether Michael is present or not.

The town has a life of its own. Its residents have somewhere to be, someone to meet, and something to do tomorrow.
