Friday the 13th, Part 2

Yes, this is the second Friday the 13th since I started this blog, and you know what that means, right? Well, for those of you who don’t, that means that you’re not supposed to be wearing the hockey mask yet. For Part 2, you’re supposed to wear that pillowcase over your head with a hole cut out of it for your eye to see out of. Or was it a white cotton laundry bag? (That would actually make a lot of sense, since they’re at a summer camp, and most kids would probably have a laundry bag with them for their dirty clothes, right? And I think most laundry bags were the white cotton ones in the early 1980s, when Part 2 was made. I think I remember that from summer camp.) And when you get it taken off your head by Amy Steel, you’re supposed to look kind of like the Elephant Man, but in overalls and a plaid flannel shirt. So please try to get it right! I know that hockey mask and the jumpsuit is what we’ve all come to expect, but that’s not until later. And remember: patience is a virtue! (Jason waited for years to get his hockey mask, so you should be able to wait, too.)

But you won’t have to wait long, because there’s yet another Friday the 13th this year (in July), and that will be Friday the 13th, Part 3! (At least, as far as this blog is concerned.) And Part 3 is when Jason started wearing the hockey mask! Yay! So you get to wear one then.

Here’s a helpful guide for Part 2:


And here’s one for Part 3:


(You don’t have to wear the axe in your head until the end of Part 3, though.)
