The original Halloween trilogy is heading back to the big screen. John Carpenter’s Halloween (1978), Halloween II (1981), and Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) return to AMC theaters on three consecutive nights, September 4, 5, and 6, presented by the upcoming Halloween: The Game. The screenings lead into the game’s September 8 launch. The re-release was reported by Bloody Disgusting and Gizmodo.

The Three Nights

The run walks through the first three films in order. September 4 brings Halloween (1978), John Carpenter’s original that introduced Michael Myers. September 5 is Halloween II (1981), which picks up on the same night as the first film. September 6 closes with Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982), the standalone entry that famously has no Michael Myers at all.

Tied to Halloween: The Game

The screenings are presented by Halloween: The Game, the upcoming Halloween video game set for release September 8. The theatrical run is one part of a wider Halloween push around the game this September, which also includes a newly announced comic series.

How to Watch

The three films play at AMC theaters on September 4, 5, and 6. Check AMC for showtimes and tickets. The same trilogy is also screening at Regal on the same three nights. For more Michael Myers this season, see our guide to Michael Myers Halloween 2026 merchandise.
