‘Halloween Kills’ Will Return to the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital
Bloody Disgusting reader Mike M. has been creeping online for behind-the-scenes footage from the ongoing production of Halloween Kills and came across some beauties, including this gem of Michael Myers allegedly chasing down a young Lonnie in a potential flashback sequence, as well as the below shot of the exterior of Haddonfield Memorial Hospital.
While the cast has already confirmed a return of several key players from John Carpenter’s Halloween, this is the first time we’re getting confirmation that one of the film’s settings will be the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital, which I teased back in August on Twitter. Just as a refresher, the hospital is the main setting for the Rick Rosenthal-directed Halloween II (1981).
David Gordon Green‘s Halloween 2018 was soaked in nostalgia and it looks like Halloween Kills is really going to embrace it all the way down to the aforementioned casting, such as the return of Nancy Stephens, who portrayed Nurse Marion Chambers in the original film.
Halloween Kills will arrive in theaters on October 16, 2020.
Well look what it is. As if anybody needed any further confirmation. #HalloweenKills Thanks @loneamorphous pic.twitter.com/cxFFVRh2TJ

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
