"he was doing very well last night!!!"

Another fun fact. Robert Englund was a extra on the set, he was throwing leaves on the sidewalks and yards. He said that in a interview years ago.

[louisbertaux]

He knew how to drive;
Michael knows things

[H.v.]

There was a theory that Michael would look at people driving and it was teaching him.

[spyder]

If you actually watched the film, Loomis himself address this at one point, questioning another doctor about where did he learn to drive.

[javiersalcido]

😂😂 he said. He drove off like a gangster from the hood. Lmao

In the thorn timeline, Dr Wynn taught him and in the 20/40 year timeline he learned from seeing others drive and the fact that he’s pure evil

“Lonny…..get ya a** away from there” - Dr loomis 😆

[ClY_WFC]

He watched others and learned some how.

[Peak]

In the movie they suspected that someone was giving him lessons behind their back.

[riskriskmks]

I mean, driving isn’t that hard, I’m sure he saw adults step on the gas pedal and turn the steering wheel as a child. Driving safely takes practice. Driving is easy.

[RickyKeith-rv]

I think one in psych hospital orderly taught him how to drive over the years.

[BiGBoYBLaZie_]

In the film it does explain how he was able to do it as he was taught by nurses

[johnroberts]

Michael Myers dad, Oscar Mayer taught him, he always knew that Michael was full of bologna ! 🤪🤣😂

[mscottlawrence]

Maybe someone around there gave him lessons

[mantewittermans]

For god sake he cant even drive a car...
"He was doing very well last night! mabye someone gave him lessons"
-Dr loomis

[mariemette]

I just watched this movie, yesterday!! I keep saying, how does he know how to drive?? For year's!!❤

[Zeninism]

In the Novel it's explained he knows how to drive because he learned by watching Loomis drive

[TEMChilds]

Dr. Loomis mentioned that in the movie.❤❤

[xtrachillisauce]

Assuming he watched TV in the hospital, American cars are mainly automatic not "stick shift", so it'd be relatively easy to stick it in Drive and hit the gas.


We see news stories of children in real life drive cars with no formal training.
