Biography[]
Chester Chesterfield was the caretaker of Haddonfield Cemetery at the time of Michael Myers' escape from Smith's Grove Sanitarium. On October 31, 2007, he met Dr. Sam Loomis, who asked him about the members of the Myers family who were buried there. Chesterfield remembered Deborah Myers, Michael's mother, and commented upon how difficult it must have been for her being labeled "Satan's Mother".
Both men then came upon the desecrated grave of Deborah's eldest child, Judith Myers. The headstone had been stolen and in its place rested the crucified remains of a small coyote.[1]
