Allyson Nelson

Allyson Nelson is a character introduced in Halloween (2018) and the subsequent films in the trilogy (Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends). She is the granddaughter of Laurie Strode, the original protagonist of the Halloween series, and the daughter of Karen Nelson. Allyson represents the third generation of Strode women, continuing the family’s legacy of resilience and survival against the terrifying Michael Myers. Personality: Resilient and Strong-Willed: Much like her grandmother Laurie, Allyson possesses a strong will to survive. Despite the trauma and danger she faces, she demonstrates a resolve to fight back. She is not one to sit idly by while Michael wreaks havoc, and she takes a more active role in trying to stop him compared to her more passive family members. Courageous: Allyson faces life-threatening situations with a certain degree of courage that shines through. She doesn't back down, even when confronted by the seemingly unstoppable force of Michael Myers. Her determination to protect herself and her loved ones from danger is a central aspect of her character. Empathetic and Caring: Allyson's relationships with her family and friends reflect her deep sense of care for others. She wants to live a normal life, away from the shadow of Michael Myers, but she remains deeply connected to her grandmother’s trauma, understanding the fear and emotional toll Laurie has carried for decades. Trauma Survivor: Over the course of the films, Allyson endures a great deal of loss and trauma, particularly after the deaths of several loved ones at the hands of Michael. Her experiences force her to confront her fears and dig deep to find the strength to survive, while also coping with immense emotional pain. Skills and Abilities: Resourceful and Quick-Thinking: Like her grandmother, Allyson is shown to be resourceful in dire situations. In Halloween Kills, for example, she participates in the fight against Michael and helps devise ways to defend herself and others.
