My guess is they don't.
Forty years is a hell of a gap between films. But then again it must take Laurie a fair while to turn her basement into something Vin Diesel and Jason Statham would admire.
H20 works far better as a sequel.
Another issue was the writing out of
Halloween II. It's said by one character that five people were killed that night, and he's basically incredulous that Strode could still be so traumatized by events forty years on despite the fact she didn't witness any of the deaths anyway.
Now if they'd allowed II to be canon than it would have been much more believable as she was involved in a hospital killing spree.
