- "The Night She Came Home" (59:43, HD) is a fascinating overview of a 2013 horror convention in Indianapolis, where Jamie Lee Curtis elected to appear, looking to monetize her "Halloween" fame for charity. Cameras are there to capture travel and hotel happenings, but mostly to watch Curtis in action as she interacts with fans and autograph seekers, signing everything put in front of her and posing for countless pictures. She does it all with highly rehearsed energy, but it's fun to watch Curtis manage such enormous attention everywhere she goes, trying to create special moments for those excited to see her.
- "Halloween Unmasked" (27:16, SD) is a 1999 featurette on the making of the horror classic, featuring interviews with co- writer/director John Carpenter, co-writer/producer Debra Hill, producers Irwin Yablans and Moustapha Akkad, cinematographer Dean Cundey, co- editor/production designer Tommy Lee Wallace, studio executive Joseph Wolf, and actors Jamie Lee Curtis, Nick Castle, P.J. Soles, and Brian Andrews. The genesis of the project is recalled, with Carpenter and Hill tasked with developing a plot about babysitters, and shooting locations are revisited, watching Cundey, Wallace, and Andrews walk around the old neighborhoods. The Donald Pleasance Experience is shared, along with the creation of Michael Myers. Scoring efforts are praised, and the original WOM release success of "Halloween" is fondly recalled.
