Halloween II (1981)

Check out the all new HALLOWEEN II page at SET-JETTER.COM

With 2013 being the 35th anniversary of my all time favorite, Halloween, I wanted to update my filming locations for the series, which have been scattered throughout my blog. I will update these pages as I add new locations and cast or crew.

For other locations from the Halloween series, click on the link below:

The well-regarded sequel stayed close to its roots picking up moments after the first film ended. Many locations make return appearances in the film, the first being the Doyle house where Myers is now shot seven (!) times, but out the front balcony instead of the back....

The neighbor in this house tells Loomis he's been trick or treated to death tonight...

Screenshots...

The Doyle house makes a return appearance to pick up Laurie Strode and her new wig....

Screenshots....

The Wallace house also returns as the sheriff identifies his daughter. As most fans know, Dana Carvey makes his first film appearance here...

Screenshots...

Of course, the Myers house also makes a brief appearance...

The film opens in the alley behind the Elrod house...

The "X" is still there!

Sean Clark was able to get Mrs. Elrod's cutting board!

Looking for Myers, Dr. Loomis and Sheriff Brackett drive by this house, which is just a couple houses up from the Doyle residence. The interiors of this house was used for the Wallace house in the first film....

Screenshots....

The Elrod house actually faces the same street where the Myers house was originally located. This street makes a reappearance as Loomis spots poor Ben Tramer in a mask...

Screenshots...

Ben doesn't look both ways and crosses the street...

Screenshots...

Kersting Court in Sierra Madre makes its first Halloween appearance as Karen takes her friend to work....

Screenshots...

This short scene is followed by Michael bumping into "boombox boy" and then walking around the corner to Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. The scene was re-enacted by the actual actors in the movie, Dick Warlock and his son, Lance....

Screenshots...

The elementary school makes a reappearance both inside and out...

Screenshots....

The loading dock of the hospital...

And finally, Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. The building has changed quite a bit over the years, but parts of it are still recognizable. The location is a veterans hospital and don't like people taking pictures. In my quick visit, I was stopped by an employee, so for future visitors, be quick!
