Earlier this month we told you about the #FaceTheShapeContest, which had die-hard Michael Myers fans from across the country submit videos of themselves on TikTok and Instagram explaining why they are the franchise’s biggest fan, while also providing their best horror scream.
“Similar to Dr. Loomis, Murtha became obsessed with Myers,” says the press release of the promotion’s winner. “At the age of 9, he made Halloween-inspired videos with his friends. As Murtha explains in his submission video, ‘I watch Halloween on the best days of my life and it gets me through my worst days.’ ”
The Pickerington, Ohio native was flown to Los Angeles after winning the contest, where he was treated to an early screening of the film and later came face to face with Michael Myers (played by Jamie Avera) on a Hollywood set located on the Universal Studios backlot. He also met Halloween Kills stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Judy Greer!
Overall, the contest drew hundreds of submissions on TikTok and Instagram. All of them can be viewed by following the hashtag #FaceTheShapeContest.
Halloween Kills is, of course, now in theaters and on Peacock.
