NOTABLE '80s star Nancy Kyes has been spotted in a rare sighting decades after she rose to fame in a mega-popular horror film.
Photos exclusively obtained by The U.S. Sun captured Nancy running errands in Los Angeles, California, last week.
Nancy, 75, known professionally as Nancy Loomis, portrayed Annie Brackett in the 1978 horror film Halloween.
She went on to star in a slew of scary movies thereafter, but most recently has stayed out of the limelight.
However, she resurfaced on October 1, as photos showed the actress stopping at a post office before heading to Cal Poly Pomona, where she is a professor.
Nancy looked nearly unrecognizable outside the Hollywood scene, dressed casually in blue jeans, a loosely fitted blue button-down shirt, and sneakers.
She now rocks a short, gray hairstyle instead of the brunette curls fans remember from her time onscreen.
Nancy seemed to pay no mind to the cameras as she walked down the street from her car to a mailbox, wearing black sunglasses.
According to a Facebook post shared by Cal Poly Pomona on Halloween in 2018, Nancy is an adjunct lecturer at the school's Department of Theatre and New Dance.
The Virginia native has extensive experience in that department, having appeared in a string of movies since the 1970s.
Her collection of spooky film credits includes Assault on Precinct 13 (1976), the original Halloween, and two of its sequels, Halloween II (1981) and Halloween III (1982).
John Carpenter co-wrote the original film, and he and Nancy frequently collaborated on projects following its success.
Also among the cast were Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasence, Tony Moran, P.J. Soles, and Charles Cyphers.
Last August, Nancy paid tribute to Charles in a statement following his death.
Charles played her father in the film, and the pair became longtime friends.
"So sorry to hear about dear Chuck. My friend of many years, he could always be relied on for a kind word, a good laugh and a great story. How he will be missed," Nancy wrote.
Charles died at the age of 85 after a brief illness.
Nancy made her first feature film debut in four decades when she starred in the 2024 horror film Hauntology.
Her co-stars included Samantha Robinson, Zoey Luna, Naomi Grossman, Abigail Esmena, and Kurt Oberhaus.
