Every character and cosmetic in Halloween: The Game unlocks through one of four systems: Profile Level, story Chapter Challenges, character-specific Progressive Challenge Collections, or Prestige ranks. Raise your Profile Level to Level 5, 10, 25, 40, and 55 to unlock Jennifer Aarons, Thomas Armitage, Lynda Van Der Klok, Bob Simms, and Annie Bracket in that order, and this guide breaks down exactly what unlocks everything else.
How to Unlock Characters in Halloween: The Game
Michael Myers and four Civilians are playable from the moment you start.
Eric Dunn, Rachel Calahan, Tanya Harrison, and Marcus Navarro join Michael as default unlocks. The next five Civilians open purely through Profile Level, which tracks all your experience regardless of which role you play.
| Character | Unlock Condition |
|---|---|
| Michael Myers | Unlocked by default |
| Eric Dunn | Unlocked by default |
| Rachel Calahan | Unlocked by default |
| Tanya Harrison | Unlocked by default |
| Marcus Navarro | Unlocked by default |
| Jennifer Aarons | Reach Profile Level 5 |
| Thomas Armitage | Reach Profile Level 10 |
| Lynda Van Der Klok | Reach Profile Level 25 |
| Bob Simms | Reach Profile Level 40 |
| Annie Bracket | Reach Profile Level 55 |
| Laurie Strode | Digital Deluxe Edition (early unlock) |
| Richard Hawthorne | Digital Deluxe Edition |
| Alexis Purcell | Digital Deluxe Edition |
Laurie Strode, Richard Hawthorne, and Alexis Purcell only unlock through the Digital Deluxe Edition. Matches alone won’t earn them.
How to Unlock Every Michael Myers Skin
Michael’s Killer skins come from a mix of purchase type, story completion, and Prestige progress.
The 1978 look is his default appearance, while the Phantom and Inmate skins depend entirely on how you bought the game.
| Skin | Unlock Condition |
|---|---|
| 1978 Michael Myers | Unlocked by default |
| Phantom Michael Myers | Pre-order any edition of the game |
| Inmate Michael Myers | Purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition |
| Ghost Michael Myers | Complete all Chapter Challenges in Michael’s story |
| Clown Michael Myers | Reach Profile Prestige Level 1 |
| Stitched Michael Myers | Complete “Legend of Haddonfield” in the 1978 Michael Myers Progressive Challenge Collection |
| Scorched Michael Myers | Reach Michael Myers Prestige Level 1 |
| Samhain Michael Myers | Complete Tier 5 of “The Shape’s Approval” in the Shape Mastery Progressive Challenge Collection |
Profile Prestige Level 1 means taking your account to Level 100 and then prestiging. Michael Myers Prestige Level 1 works the same way, but it tracks your Killer Level instead of your overall Profile Level.
How to Unlock Civilian Outfits
Every Civilian starts with a single default outfit, and the pattern for unlocking the next two rarely changes.
Outfit 2 almost always comes from that character’s own Progressive Challenge Collection. Outfit 3 requires finishing a specific single-player Chapter Challenge that ends with Michael executing them in a particular way.
| Character | Outfit 2 | Outfit 3 |
|---|---|---|
| Eric Dunn | Complete “Topped Off” (Eric Progressive) | Chapter 2 Challenge 4: shelf kill in the hardware store stockroom |
| Rachel Calahan | Complete “Not Afraid” (Rachel Progressive) | Chapter 2 Challenge 2: environmental kill |
| Tanya Harrison | Complete “Social Butterfly” (Tanya Progressive) | Chapter 2 Challenge 1: cash register kill |
| Marcus Navarro | Complete “Path Less Traveled” (Marcus Progressive) | Complete Chapter 1 |
| Jennifer Aarons | Complete “Panic Mod” (Jennifer Progressive) | Chapter 3 Challenge 1: campfire kill |
| Thomas Armitage | Complete “Stiff Arm” (Thomas Progressive) | Chapter 3 Challenge 2: weight bench kill |
| Lynda Van Der Klok | Complete a Lynda Progressive Challenge Collection objective | Chapter 4 Challenge 3: kill Lynda with the telephone while wearing the Sheet |
| Bob Simms | Complete Bob’s Collection 2 Progressive Challenges | Chapter 4 Challenge 2: pin Bob to the wall in the kitchen |
| Annie Bracket | Complete Annie’s Collection 2 Progressive Challenges | Chapter 4 Challenge 1: strangle Annie in the car |
| Laurie Strode | Complete “Desperate Struggle” (Laurie Progressive) | Complete Chapter 4 |
| Richard Hawthorne | Complete “Sweet Talker” (Richard Progressive) | Complete “Born to Live” (Richard Progressive) |
| Alexis Purcell | Complete “Extrovert” (Alexis Progressive) | Complete “Silver Tongue” (Alexis Progressive) |
Laurie Strode gets a fourth outfit beyond this pattern. Her Final Girl Outfit ships with the Digital Deluxe Edition, and you can’t earn it by playing.
How to Unlock Hair, Glasses, and Makeup
Beyond outfits, each Civilian has extra hair styles, eyewear, and makeup or blemish options gated behind four repeating systems.
Learn the pattern once and you can plan exactly which cosmetics to chase next.
| Unlock Method | What It Gates |
|---|---|
| Profile Level milestones | Specific eyewear and makeup pieces at set account levels, such as Eric’s Glasses 1 at Profile Level 4 and Rachel’s Makeup 1 at Profile Level 18 |
| Character Progressive Challenge Collections | Outfits, hair, and cosmetics tied to each named Civilian’s own challenge list |
| Passive Challenge Collections | Cosmetics earned by clearing tiers in shared category books like Survival, Resourcefulness, and Mastery Challenge |
| Character Prestige Levels | Late-game items; most characters unlock a glasses piece at Prestige Level 5 and a makeup or blemish piece at Prestige Level 4 |
Four separate tracks feed these unlocks: Profile Level (combined XP), Killer Level (playing as Michael), Civilian Level (per individual Civilian), and Weapon Level (kills with specific weapons as Michael). Raising any track opens new challenge tiers, abilities, and cosmetic rewards, and hitting the cap on a track lets you Prestige for higher-tier items.
What’s Locked to the Digital Deluxe Edition in Halloween: The Game
A specific slice of content never appears as earnable, no matter how far you level.
The Phantom Michael Myers skin comes with any pre-order. The Digital Deluxe Edition adds the Inmate Michael Myers skin, Laurie’s Final Girl Outfit, and the Laurie Strode, Richard Hawthorne, and Alexis Purcell characters themselves, plus early access ahead of the standard launch.
How to Confirm an Unlock in Halloween: The Game
Open the Customize menu for the relevant character, or for Michael, to see your current unlock status.
Once you meet a condition, the outfit, skin, hair, eyewear, or makeup entry becomes selectable instead of showing its locked requirement. If an item still reads as locked after you’ve leveled up and cleared challenges, check whether it’s an edition-exclusive piece first, since those never unlock through gameplay.
