From BoardGameGeek
The first board game based on the original classic horror movie "Halloween". In this 1 vs. many game, most of the players will run around the board, searching through houses for useful items and for the kids - Tommy and Lindsey. They can win the game by either causing enough damage to Michael Myers, or by finding Tommy, Lindsey, and a set of car keys so they can escape to safety! Meanwhile, the player controlling Michael Myers will stalk them - and because he is only visible when someone is looking directly at him, he will be an ever-present danger throughout the game. The Myers player can win by killing enough characters, or by preventing the players from escaping for long enough. (If a player's character is killed, they lose anything they're carrying but will come on the board with a new character from the movie).
