HALLOWEEN BOOKS: The Novelizations of Michael Myers

Welcome to my retrospective on the movie tie-in novelization books of the HALLOWEEN franchise! We will be discussing John Carpenter's and Debra Hill's original 1978 film and its novelization by Curtis Richards, as well as the impact Halloween II had on the writing of the novel. I also discuss the 90s YA 'Halloween' series by Kelly O'Rourke, containing three books: 'The Scream Factory', 'The Old Myers Place', and 'The Mad House'. These books are crazy teen slashers that Halloween fans should totally dig. I also review TAKING SHAPE: DEVELOPING HALLOWEEN FROM SCRIPT TO SCREAM, a fantastic nonfiction account about the making of the entire franchise. I hope you enjoy my deep-dive reviews into these staples of Michael Myers fandom!
