No. It is over 55 million miles from Earth when it gets to its closest so there is no chance of it hitting us.

Halley's Comet is unique because it is one of the most famous comets known to humanity due to its regular appearance every 75-76 years. It is also the only short-period comet that is visible to the naked eye from Earth and has been recorded by humans for over 2,000 years. Additionally, Halley's Comet contains a nucleus made of ice, dust, and rocky material that gradually vaporizes as it gets closer to the Sun, creating its iconic glowing tail.

What is the name of the comet that supposedly appears every 2000 years or so and was last seen in the mid 90's?

"Periodic" comets reappear at predictable intervals, such as Haley's Comet. Some comets are never seen again. A few crash into the Sun and are destroyed; a few crash into other planets, such as the Shoemaker-Levy comet that hit Jupiter. Many comets have such long periods, in terms of thousands of years, that no records exist that anyone ever saw them before.
