About this Article

Barrington and Barrington Hills native Bill Moseley has become a bona fide horror film icon by playing sociopathic killers with names such as Quilt Face and Chop-Top. It can all be traced back to his dad, Halloween and a horror movie. “Halloween was an adventure and a bonding,” Moseley said. “It was probably the only night I felt the closest to my father, who was a tough guy.”
