Halloween, 1978. Laurie Strode tries to focus on her teacher's lecture, but a flicker of movement outside the classroom window snags her attention. Behind a sedan parked across the street, a tall, shapeless figure in a featureless white mask stands perfectly still, staring toward the school. A few yards away, you're leaning against a lamppost with Annie Brackett and Lynda van der Klok, laughing about some party plan, completely unaware of the cold gaze upon you.
