For 40 years, his mask was kept as archival evidence, eventually making its way to an attorney general's office until the day it came into the hands of journalist Aaron Korey, who, along with his colleague, Dana Haines, was making a podcast about Michael Myers. Upon Michael's escape from custody while en route to a new facility, he managed to meet up with Korey at a gas station, where he retrieved the mask he had not worn in four decades, and went on his second murder spree. The Halloween franchise is perhaps best remembered for its most recurring villain – The Shape, aka Michael Myers. The character is normally portrayed as the epitome of evil, and one of the best ways of getting that concept across to the audience is with his iconic mask. As fans of the franchise likely already know, Michael Myers first dons the iconic white mask in the original 1978 Halloween. Once he appeared on screen in his proper full attire, a cinematic icon was born. But where exactly did the mask come from?Halloween: Resurrection establishes that Michael put his clothes and mask on a paramedic who was mistakenly beheaded by Laurie at the end of H20. Since Michael left said mask behind, it is again assumed that he stole a new one from another store. This Michael mask and costume includes everything you need to become one of the most brutal murderers this Halloween. Get ready for a genuine horror look with our official Michael Myers workwear, and of course, this frightening mask.

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers features a mask that once again appears different from the previous two films, but it is allegedly the same one that was still intact at the end of Halloween 5. At the end of the film, after Michael is burned, he is shown still wearing the charred remains of the mask.Take your Halloween look to the next level this year with the Michael Myers 1978 costume, available exclusively at Horrifiq ! Stand Out and Turn Heads with the Michael Myers 1978 Mask During the school scene when Michael throws Loomis through the glass door, the mask is pink with blond hair. Director Dwight H. Little later speculated that an exhausted crew member accidentally grabbed a non-altered mask for the scene, and there was not enough time or money for a reshoot. At Horrifiq, we pride ourselves on providing products crafted from the most spine-chillingly superior materials. Each of our petrifying masks is designed with skin-friendly, nightmarish care to ensure a comfortable and ghastly experience for both little ghouls and grown-up monsters alike. Employing the eerie embrace of natural latex, our masks ensure your haunting is delightfully devilish and free from ghastly odors. Halloween Ends, which takes place four years after Halloween (2018) and Halloween Kills, features the same mask from the preceding films, but it is now covered in mold and mildew. Halloween H20 is a direct sequel to Halloween II (1981) in which the original mask was destroyed in the fire at Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. The film does not explain how Michael obtained a new mask, but it is assumed that he stole it from another store.

Halloween (2018) is a direct sequel to the original Halloween (1978) thus the mask in this film is meant to be the very same one from the first. In this timeline, Michael was recaptured shortly following the events of the original. The Curse mask received a much better reaction, with praise for how similar it looked to the original one. You can easily see through the eye holes and comfortably breathe through the nostrils. If you’d like to make the mouth or eye holes a little bigger, simply use a scissor. This will not compromise the overall look of the mask. The Stan Winston mask is the one seen for the majority of the film, replacing the KNB mask. Though praised for looking more similar to the original, it was still mostly panned since Michael's eyes are plainly visible, and for the hair appearing frizzy. The romantic ideal of the Michael Myers mask, the original works so well mainly because the director of the film, John Carpenter, is so adept at knowing where shadows are supposed to be. The cheekbones provide a little underline in dark close-ups so it doesn’t look like Myers is wearing a mayonnaise container on his head, and very rarely do you see Michael’s actual eyes, lending him that inhuman quality of “The Shape.” Combine that with the slight tussle in his hair and you have a grade-A maniac mask, one that totally alienates the audience from any sort of human connection or empathy. Halloween II (1981): The Dye Job Image: Universal PicturesAfter a six-year hiatus, the Halloween franchise would return with a mask that’s a little better than the one in the previous two installments. This one has scruffy hair and a blank expression, but that expression doesn’t exude pure unreasonable malice; instead, it’s a puppy-dog innocence that looks like Michael Myers is having trouble with a trivia question at all times. The confusion makes sense, though — at this point in the franchise, the Halloween lore had spiraled out of control, losing the original intent of faceless, unexplainable evil and instead having Myers transform into an incestuous bull stud for a Celtic-themed doomsday cult.

Returning the franchise to its roots, ignoring the past four sequels, and reintroducing Jamie Lee Curtis’ Laurie Strode character to the series definitely made for a sleeker experience. If only the mask could keep up. There are multiple masks used throughout H20, including CGI ones. But if we had to grade it on the main Myers mask, the one that appears during the iconic scene where a horrified Laurie gets face-to-face with Michael through a tiny window, the results are pretty uneven. The mask detail is there, but without Carpenter’s shadows (being able to see his wide eyes so clearly all the time does no favors for Michael’s mystique) and with an onion-tuft of hair, there’s little in the way of results. Halloween Resurrection (2002): The EVIL One Image: Dimension Films Crafted from skin-friendly latex and polyester, the Michael Myers 1978 costume and mask are designed to perfectly fit children as well as adults. Not just for Halloween, this mask is also perfect for other events such as costume parties, Christmas, New Year parties, Easter and more. The latex mask features burn scare details and attached brown hair, making it the ultimate representation of Michael Myers. However, not all of the masks are built equally. As the Halloween series progressed, various redesigns would cause a Rise and Fall and Rise of sorts, and if you’re the kind of person who deeply cares (the right kind of person) you’ll notice each one gives Michael a distinctly different vibe.

Frequently asked questions

The KNB mask was the primary one when filming began, later replaced by the Stan Winston mask, though the original footage is still retained in many of the long shots. It was highly criticized by test audiences for looking nothing like the original, being described as "bloated" or looking like an alien, leading to the filmmakers changing masks even though production was already halfway done.

In reinventing Michael Myers during the horror remake arms race of the mid-aughts, director Rob Zombie layers his Myers mask with dirt and blemishes. It’s the result of having been left under some floorboards for 15 years, and it doesn’t look so bad — at the very least, it appears to be the product of an actual artist and not a frantic dash to a Spirit Halloween. We get to see a close replica of the original, too, in the film’s first act — a brief nod to fans of the series before Zombie goes and does whatever he wants with it.
