Storybreakers is back, and this episode is pure Halloween geek heaven.
Chris Brennan is joined by Lee McCoy from DrumDums, one of YouTube’s most passionate Halloween voices, to break story on the next chapter of the franchise, completely improvised and off the top of our heads.
We start with Lee’s personal connection to the series (including seeing Halloween 4 in theaters in 1988), his love for the atmosphere of Halloween 6 (and his fan edit, the Blue Myers Cut), then we dive into the big swing:
What if the franchise continued as a true sequel to Halloween 4, with an adult Jamie Lloyd returning to Haddonfield, the evil still inside her, and a new figure stepping in as the heir to Dr. Loomis?
We talk structure, themes, set pieces, and what makes Halloween feel like Halloween (trick or treaters included). By the end, we’ve got a clean pitch for a modern Jamie story that goes dark, stays simple, and brings back the missing ingredient the franchise has lacked for years.
