On Halloween night… evil doesn’t fade — it waits.

In this episode of CandleReid, we sit down with one of the most iconic horror franchises of all time and ask a haunting question:

Which version truly captures fear — the original or the remake?

We break down Halloween (1978) and Halloween (2018), exploring how one film introduced pure, unexplained evil… while the other focused on trauma, survival, and the scars left behind.

From the quiet suburban dread of John Carpenter’s original to the brutal, emotional reckoning of the modern sequel, this episode dives deep into atmosphere, Michael Myers as “The Shape,” and how fear has evolved over forty years.

Two films.
One mask.
Very different nightmares.

Light a candle, turn the lights down, and join me as we revisit Haddonfield — where evil never truly dies.
