With Halloween Kills barely two months away as of this writing, three elements that have franchise fans excited are the returns of Charles Cyphers, Nancy Stephens and Kyle Richards.

For Cyphers, he picks up the Leigh Brackett role he played in the first two Halloween pictures, with him being Sheriff Brackett during that time. This time out, Leigh is a security guard at Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. Of course, Brackett's daughter Annie was murdered by Michael Myers in John Carpenter's iconic 1978 Halloween.

In the case of Nancy Stephens, she'll be reprising her role as Marion Chambers from Halloween, Halloween II and Halloween H20. Marion was the assistant to Sam Loomis in those first two films, with her killed off in the opening of the no-longer-canon H20 as Michael hunted for details on Laurie Strode.

Finally, Kyle Richards will be back in the saddle as Lindsey Wallace, one of the youngsters who was looked after by Jamie Lee Curtis' Laurie in the '78 classic. The Lindsey character was never seen again after Halloween, but Richards herself went onto become a staple of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

To Halloween fans, seeing three more of the original Halloween cast joining Curtis in Halloween Kills is all kinds of cool.
