Background to Halloween and FT13th series

I've been looking for a website that tells, in detail, the background of Michael Myers and Jason Vorhees. I can't find anything more than a synopsis of each movie. Can anyone describe the background of these characters to me, or point me to a good website. I know that something happens to MM when he was a kid, but I can't figure out what.

I think I just want to know what the motivation is behind the killings, in the first of each series anyways.

Spoiler:
michael myers kills his sister at age 6 (i think) and is kept locked up for all those years. then he escapes and starts attacking babysiters.
jason drowns as a kid, or so we think apparently after seeing his mother get her head cut off, he attacks the only survivor at the end and then all hell breaks loose for the next 9 installments.

i hope that helps some.

I am not sure why there are spoilers in this thread. According to Halloween 4,5,6 Michael was a part of a Druid cult or something. But there is doubt whether the producers/Akad now adhere to that storyline as it was disregarded in h20 and resurrection.

Pretty lame thing story
