Michael Myers is a fictional character from the Halloween series of
slasher films. He first appears in 1978 in John Carpenter's Halloween
as a young boy who murders his elder sister, Judith Myers. Fifteen
years later, he returns home to Haddonfield to murder more teenagers.
In the original Halloween, the adult Michael Myers, referred to as The
Shape in the closing credits, was portrayed by Nick Castle for most of
the film and substituted by Tony Moran and Tommy Lee Wallace in the
final scenes. The character was created by Debra Hill and John
Carpenter and has appeared in ten films, as well as novels, multiple
video games, and several comic books.The character is the primary
antagonist in the Halloween film series, except Halloween III: Season
of the Witch, which is not connected in continuity to the rest of the
films. Since Castle, Moran, and Wallace put on the mask in the
original film, six people have stepped into the same role. Castle,
George P. Wilbur, and Tyler Mane are the only actors to have portrayed
Michael Myers more than once, with Mane being the only one to do so in
consecutive films. Michael Myers is characterized as pure evil, both
directly in the films, by the filmmakers who created and developed the
character over nine films, and by random participants in a survey. In
the first two films, Michael wears a Captain Kirk mask that is painted
white. The mask, which was made from a cast of William Shatner's face,
was originally used in the 1975 horror film The Devil's Rain.Michael
Myers appears in all of the Halloween films except Halloween III:
Season of the Witch, which did not feature any elements from the
preceding two films. Myers has also appeared in expanded universe
novels and comic books.
