The iconic character in horror franchise "Halloween" has no direct prototype. He is instead a creation of writers & Debra hill, who wanted to have the perfect figure standing for all evil.

But Carpenter has said that while at Western Kentucky University he was studying mental health, and during this time he once visited a psychiatric institution where he met a child that had a cold emotionless stare which left a deep impression on him. This encounter was one of the influences for creating Michael Myers. '

The intriguing yet terrifying character of Michael Myers in the 'Halloween' series isn't derived from any specific real-life person. Rather, creators John Carpenter and Debra Hill dreamed up this pure evil are born from human imagination. Yet a distinct influence did occur during Carpenter's years at Western Kentucky University.

He witnessed a chilling emotionless gaze of a child in a mental institution, which deeply affected him and ultimately partly inspired the creation of Michael Myers. Consequently, while Michael Myers isn't a carbon copy of an existing individual, aspects of his character do bear the marks of real-world influences.

To think of Michael Myers, the 'Halloween' franchise's iconic mass murderer, as immortal is a shady subject among horror devotees. However, in the abstract he is not immortal. In the first film he is no more than an ordinary man with an extraordinarily sick mind theme song. Yet film after film shows him surviving the most appalling injuries and reappearing imploringly this leads to the notion that in a symbolic way he symbolizes immortal fear. Nonetheless, the latest reboot of the franchise thrusts Myers firmly back into the real world, stressing his human vulnerability in contrast to the near-supernatural durability he displayed before. In conclusion, rather than that he was physically immortal. We view Myers' everlasting while surviving from one to another and his horror as a metaphor for occupational horrors that still cannot be extinguished.

Be told from one old horror fan to another: This Michael Myers from the legendary HALLOWEEN series does raise that question over and over again. His evil seems to come from both a hard childhood and natures trimmings. From the tender age of six, Myers commited his first evil deed by murdering his older sister for motives no-one can know. Furthermore, Myers is beyond human. Often explained as a "force of nature," this means his evil carries a supernatural element. He need not follow the evil characters of popular media in everything he does; his a guy whose notoriety instead goes its own way. To get a fuller picture, we might read back his silence throughout the show for reasons his evil is so unfeeling and irrational. It suggests that, in the final end perhaps were deliberately designed puzzles to fence in his actions within their own limits, not humanity's.
