Let's see shall we

Primary 

The last time someone tried to use a kitchen knife against Jack Torrance it didn't end well and I don't see it ending much better for Michael either. The Fire Axe has a longer reach and more importantly has more destructive power behind it's blows which is key against someone as tough as Michael.

Edge: Jack Torrance 

Secondary 

The Scaple is in the same boat as the kitchen knife in that I don't think it will do much to harm Jack but with the added disadvantage of being much flimsier and prone to breaking. The Croquet Mallet doesn't fair much better, sure it has reach but against someone like Michael I doubt it will be able to generate enough force to actually hurt him.

Edge: Even

Special

The Overlook Hotel Ghosts may not be able to actually hurt Michael directly but they can manipulate the enviroment in order to give Jack an advantage or knock his opponent around a bit. Michael is very physically strong and durable but that isn't nearly as useful as having a whole hotel's worth of ghosts backing you up.

Edge: Jack Torrance 

Final Verdict 

Despite giving pretty much all the edges for Jack I would like to go on record as saying that I think if this was just a straight up brawl with no outside assistance that Michael would win. While his weaponry is not so great it's not as if he can't just say use one of Jack's weapons if he gets his hands on it and he's far more physically capable than Jack so that's not out of the realms of possibility. Jack himself isn't actually gifted with any great strength and while he can stand up to a lot of damage it's more that he just ignores it rather than him not being hurt. However the Overlook Hotel Ghosts are a game changer in this battle because they can jump in and help Jack if things aren't going his way, by shielding him behind doors and creating illusions to confuse Michael. With his spirit world entourage backing him up Jack won't be punished nearly as much for his mistakes and if Michael does get the upper hand at any point they will jump in and protect him. Michael may be tougher and all around more dangerous but he's not just fighting Jack but a host of evil spirits as well and he'll struggle to cope especially since his mental state isn't exactly the best.

Jack Torrance: 3,000

Michael Myers: 2,000
