Our long-running Friday the 13th on Friday the 13th series returns to where it all began with the 1980 original!
The story takes place at Camp Crystal Lake, a seemingly idyllic summer camp with a dark past. As a group of young counselors prepares to reopen the camp, they find themselves stalked by a mysterious killer. One by one, they fall victim to grisly attacks, culminating in a shocking twist that reveals the tragedy of a drowned boy named Jason Voorhees and the depths of a mother’s vengeance.
With its suspenseful atmosphere, inventive kills, and iconic score by Harry Manfredini, Friday the 13th became a horror sensation, launching a long-running franchise and solidifying its place as a genre-defining classic.
