A Deep Dive into the Dark World of Myers by Zepphora

Myers by Zepphora

Myers is a dark, taboo retelling of Michael Myers from the popular and, in my personal opinion, amazing Halloween films. This book follows Damien King, a 12-year-old boy who lives with his stepsister Samantha after his mother passes away. Samantha babysits Trixie long term, in that she pretty much lives there full time. Trixie is 4 years old and gets ignored by Samantha, so Damien looks after her and protects her. On Halloween night, Damien takes Trixie trick or treating. What starts as a cute night of trick or treating ends with sixteen people dead and a 12 year old boy covered in blood holding a 4 year old child in his arms. Trixie gets taken away from Damien and he spends his time between prison and the psych hospital, until he escapes and makes his way back to Chippewa Falls to reclaim what is his and destroy all those who took her from him.
