Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills’ Kyle Richards Other Roles (Including Halloween)

The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards has an impressive list of acting credits under her belt – here’s which roles she has played, including her character in Halloween. Nowadays, RHOBH’s Kyle Richards is best known for starring in reality TV show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She began appearing on the show alongside her sister Kim Richards during its first season back in 2010 and now ranks as its longest-running cast member. Richards wasn’t always a reality star, however, and she first found fame as an actress.

Richards was just five years old when she nabbed her first big acting gig playing Alicia Sanderson Edwards in the historical drama series Little House On The Prairie – a recurring role that spanned 18 episodes between 1975 and 1982. During her time on Little House On The Prairie, Richards had bit parts in lots of other TV shows including Police Story, Vega$ and Fantasy Island. She also had a four-episode role as a young runaway named Gerry on the short-lived ABC sitcom Carter Country.

Richards is no stranger to the horror genre either. She had a role in Tobe Hooper’s 1976 horror movie Eaten Alive as a kid at the mercy of a murderous motel owner and his bloodthirsty pet crocodile and then appeared in killer vehicle horror The Car the following year, alongside her sister Kim. She famously played Lindsey Wallace – one of the kids Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) babysits while being stalked by Michael Myers in the original Halloween movie from 1978 – and had a part in the Disney-produced supernatural horror The Watcher In The Woods. Richards also had a lead role in Curfew, a 1989 horror-thriller about a family taken hostage by a pair of escaped prisoners that was rejected by the BBFC in Britain, before being released uncut over a decade later.

During the mid-1980s, Richards had a main role in the fantasy sitcom Down To Earth as Lissy – the teenage daughter of a widower whose family is helped by a guardian angel-in-training disguised as a housekeeper. In the 1990s and early 2000s, she had one-off TV parts in the likes of Beverly Hills, 90210, City Guys and 7th Heaven and a recurring role as nurse Dori Kerns on the medical drama ER.

Richards’ stint on The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills hasn’t stopped her from acting, albeit not quite as regularly. She had a part in the TV movie Deadly Sibling Rivalry, a three-episode stint as Casey McGraw in soap opera Days Of Our Lives and a cameo in comedy film The Hungover Games. More recently, Richards voiced herself in an episode of Netflix animation The Prince and reprised her role as Lindsey in horror sequel Halloween Kills. Next up, Kyle Richards will star in the holiday movie The Real Housewives Of The North Pole which is set to premiere on Peacock later this year.
