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.

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.

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. == M ==
