2 decades later surviving a massacre on October 3 1, 1978, former baby-sitter Laurie Strode finds herself hunted by knife-wielder Michael Myers that is persistent. Laurie resides in Northern California under an assumed name, where she works since the headmistress of a private school. Nevertheless, it is not much enough to flee Myers, that finds her whereabouts. Since the peaceful community of Laurie is descended upon by Halloween, a sense of dread depends upon her -- with good reason.
