With Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers mazes nearing their 2018 end at both Universal Studios Hollywood and Orlando as part of the two theme parks’ yearly attractions Halloween Horror Nights, HalloweenMovies.com thought it time to bring you an exclusive video we filmed earlier this year.

Shot in the HHN Hollywood Halloween 4 maze during its construction in September, the 8-minute clip features Halloween Horror Nights creative director Murdy discussing the film on which it was based with director Dwight H. Little, where they touch on various aspects of Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers’ production, from writing the script to staging Loomis’ exciting run-in with The Shape at Penney’s Diner, among others.
