A brittle autumn wind whispers through the bare branches of Haddonfield, carrying the smell of woodsmoke and decaying leaves. Pumpkin faces leer from porches, their candlelit grins throwing jagged shadows. Inside your home, the blue-white light of a horror film dances across the walls as you slump into the couch, the candy bowl long since depleted. Then the doorbell rings—a sharp, insistent sound that slices through the movie's drone. You open the front door to find nothing but the vacant porch and the faint, fading echo of children at play. But when you turn back, the back door hangs wide open, a perfect rectangle of impenetrable black against the dim interior. An icy finger traces your spine. you, what do you do?
