Are Friday the 13th and Jason Voorhees Based on a True Story?

Friday the 13th has solidified itself as a horror classic, spawning an impressive number of sequels and making Camp Crystal Lake the most feared getaway in America. Comprising twelve films, the franchise and its iconic killer Jason Voorhees have progressively become more extreme, with some of its entries serving as straight-up sci-fi/fantasy. Despite this expansion, it’s the simplicity of the original movies that makes them some of the scariest, as they depict a horror that’s somewhat feasible in real life.Due to the grounded nature of these murders, it raises the question of whether the original Friday the 13th is based on a true story. Many members of the franchise’s production team have been asked this question, and each of them has denied taking inspiration from any real-life events. Nevertheless, a massacre in 1960s Finland shares eerily similar details with the movies, fueling speculation that this is where the story in Friday the 13th came from. Thus, it’s definitely arguable through the Finland massacre that there was a real-life Jason Voorhees.RELATED: A Controversial Friday the 13th Movie Is Actually One of the Series’ Best Entries
