Myers doesn't respect the Entity
I like the idea that Michael doesn't care about the Entity. You know, why should he sacrifice people if he can just kill them? When I play Myers I don't care about sacrificing, there is only one goal: kill them all with my own hands.
And save my little sister :3

Correct.
Myers is the only person in the Entity's Realm that it cannot control/manipulate.
Michael Myers is evil given form, Evil Incarnate, if you'd like.

Also pyramid head

Kinda, he still has to obey the Entity's rules about hooking Survivors
3 -
No, he can send them to his doom cages.

Little sister = Laurie Strode?
Because the movies were basically entirely about him trying to murder her violently.
3 -
Oh yeah, I never see PH do that, so I forgot. Still counts as a hook stage tho.
3 -
and he can Mori after it too so it's about the same level as Myers. In fact Myers needs add-ons to do it, so I'd go as far to say PH is even more strong in this "anti-entity" regard

My own personal view is that the force which has taken up residence within Michael Myer's body, the Boogeyman for lack of a better word, is the homegrown evil of our world. I'm sure it finds the Entity's interest amusing, and simply is checking this new interloper out while it has its fun. The Entity will one day realize that this world already belongs to an evil incarnate that likes its pleasures simple. The Entity will one day be subsumed by Michael when its interests suddenly shift as they tend to do every so many decades.

It counts, mechanically, as a hook stage, but it doesn't count as a hook, not even mechanically. Borrowed Time, DS, Devour Hope, etc, none of that works.

so, if they die caged, the Entity doesn't get them?
3 -
He is the only Killer with addons to kill, so he makes it clear that Myers does not respect her, also by getting the achievement "Evil Incarnate" also shows in the lore so to speak that it is difficult to manipulate.
1 -
Yes and no.
Pyramid head is a manifestation of guilt and his role is a punisher, unlike myers who kills for his own psychopathic pleasure.
PH isn't manipulated by entity since his sole purpose is to torment and probably his goal is to just do what he was created for.
Myers isn't controlled by entity since he simply likes to kill by his own hands.
This is just my theory in relation to lore of both.

"Entity Displeased"

The Entity still gets them if they die in the cage.

Myers I think isn't completely out of the Entity's control. He require add-ons in order to kill by his own hands, whereas Pyramid Head is not so much under the Entity's control but willingling working with it, and as such, working within it's guidelines.
The Entity wants survivors on Hooks to maximise their terror and despair. It feeds on a piece of their souls each time you are sacrificed. If you get executed before that moment, it naturally annoys the entity. Like if someone rushed cooking your meal, and it was undercooked.
I think the best analogy is that the Entity is the owner of many savage animals. However, these animals are all broken in one way or another, whether forced to work through torture, or easily trained into obedience. Myers is the rabid wolf of the group, prone to just going nuts and doing as he likes. He can still be forced to obey, but there are moments where even the Entity is not wholly in control.
Pyramidhead is like a coworker. Pyramidhead was kind of "hired" by the entity to do it's bidding. You can see this from his backstory, and the way he acts in game. He holds back on the survivors, the way he swings his sword when attacking is different than when he executes them. And when he does execute them, he needs to fulfil certain conditions in order to do so, building up terror and hope to make a delectable dish for the Entity.

Again, has to go through the hook stages. He can't kill people without having them progress through hook stages.
1 -
Agreed. As Dr. Loomis once said: "This isn't a man..." Michael Myers is just evil. Evil beyond control.
2 -
I like your view, i just think it's kinda boring the though of "nothing can stop Myers", don't get me wrong i still think he's really strong but i think people usually underestimate the Entity a lot.
0 -
Phead tho
0 -
Her? Wait the entity is a female?
0 -
Nope In french there is no It so the devs use she/her, From what i know other languages do that as well for example arabic there is no It they use he/him instead of it So... yeah
0 -
Nouns have a grammatical gender in some languages. English used to have ones as well, but lost it. As far as I remember she is probably used, because the french word for entity grammatical gender is feminine. In German e.g. he is used, even though we have an neuter gender, because the german noun we use for entity is masculine. Using "it" would be grammatical incorrect in that regard.

I like to think that the Entity let myers in and now realised that they literally cant do anything to stop him so they keep giving him survivors to make him happy. Most killers feed the entity but the entity feeds myers lmao
2 -
But at base he has the ability to sacrifice them his own way and just straight up givem the CHOP
0 -
That's true. It also lines up with canon.
He (to my understanding) is a manifestation of guilt.
Sort of how Myers is the physical Incarnate of Evil.
1 -
The Entity has difficulty with some killers, such as Huntress and Spirit. Even Trapper tried to fight back (but failed!). Cheryl can even control it a bit to her advantage!
However, with both Myers and Pyramid Head it definitely bit off more than it could chew. Myers is just doing what the heck he wants, and Pyramid Head may even be parasitic; feeding off the emotions within and perhaps this guilt manifestation is a way for Silent Hill's God to infiltrate.
The Entity is powerful, and maybe getting more powerful, but it's still with weaknesses or aspects that could be very troublesome for it as it grows.

Even if the Entity can't control Myers, what's he gonna do? The Entity still controls where Michael goes, which trials he'll be doing his thing in. Sure, he may occasionally deprive the Entity of a sacrifice or two, but I highly doubt the Entity would allow him to do so in any meaningful way. He's still just a single 'man',
Also, what does "cannot control" even mean? I always thought this meant that the Entity cannot torture Myers to 'persuade' him.

I agree, Myers is probably more of an annoyance than a threath to the entity
0 -
Where does the idea come from that Michael isn’t controlled by the entity or can leave at will? I’m wondering if I missed lore somewhere??
0 -
Tbf, myers is also known to hang people on walls, no joke. He doesnt care hes sacrificing them, it just comes normally.
0 -
The way I see Michael is that he frequently disobeys, he knows he will be punished but he still does it.
With ph is something different, he's not a conscious being, he is here to inflict punishment and he'll do it the way he can, regardless of what the entity want.
0 -
I make the hypothesis that Myers continues to kill people and the entity punishes him for disobeying, without sacrifices the entity is weakened and would cease to exist, but Myers continues to kill, due to his evil, he will kill and kill to find peace. In fact he does not even want to leave, he prefers to stay and kill for all eternity despite the fact that he suffers the entity's punishments, as the movie says, You cannot kill the bogeyman.

This made me think of Burger King Myers and I laughed.

The bodies ("still intact") stay in the cage. So technically yes?
