GALLATIN, Tennessee (WSMV) — Everyone has their favorite scary movies to watch around this time of year. One Gallatin man is going the extra mile by bringing one of those characters to life in the streets of his city this week. News 4 came across a man Monday afternoon at Gallatin Square that looks just like Michael Myers from the Halloween movies, but the local man goes by a slightly different name.
Monday, the Gallatin Square was full of honks and wide-eyed kids over a spooky sighting. “At first, it is kind of creepy,” one woman said.
People spotted a white, stone-faced man by the name of ‘Michael Hugs.’ “Then when you know why he is doing it, it is actually kind of cool,” the woman said.
The man behind the mask stood at the busy intersection and offered hugs to all. “Not everyday do you get to hug Michael Myers,” the woman said. “Most of the time, he is wanting to kill you.” People jumped out of cars to grab a hug and a picture, and kids loved him. “We saw him yesterday standing out here giving free hugs,” parent Ashley Harris said. “Our boys love Halloween and wanted to get a hug. The little one has been talking about it all day at daycare.”
