Dark Horizons also reported news from the convention. They said that Producer Moustapha Akkad confirmed shooting begins in Spring on "Halloween 8" based on a script by Larry Brand ("Masque of the Red"). Curtis didn't want to be in another "Halloween" film but agreed to cameo in order "to tie up what happened to her". Akkad also confirmed that it wasn't Myers who died in 'H20' and none of the other characters from that film will appear in the new sequel.
