Can Michael Myers speak?!
Question: While Michael is mute, he seems to understand what people say to him. There have been brief glimpses of hesitation or even remorse in Michael, an example of which is in Halloween II. Michael approaches Laurie with the intention of killing her, when she screams his name. Michael stops and turns his head slightly in confusion; this hints that Michael may not be entirely sure of his intentions. Many consider this a true interpretation of Michael's hesitation, as it is in a film made by John Carpenter, the creator of the character, and not a different writer who hoped to fill in the gaps of Michael's origin with their own ideas. Another example is Halloween 5 when Jamie climbs into the coffin, she cries out "uncle" and Michael stops his attack and then she says "let me see", at which point Michael removes his mask and a tear falls out of his eye. This seems to show remorse, or perhaps simply a moment during which Michael's true soul takes hold before the curse silences it once more, suggesting Michael is not a psychopath. In the 2007 remake, Michael displays psychopathic tendencies such as regularly torturing and killing small animals and is described in the film as being psychotic, however after brutalizing everyone he comes across instead of automatically killing his baby sister after finding her he first shows her a picture of him and Laurie when they were younger showing he still had a fondness for her.
As a child he could speak, but when he was 6 he killed his sister and the trauma made him mute.
