Friday the 13thJust Got a Huge Update. Maybe.

A young ship’s company just announced it ’s add up on board and is quick to takeJason Voorheesandthe Friday the 13th franchiseinto the future . What just that means though , is not quite crystal ( lake ) clear .

IGN weaken the newsthat a companionship called Horror Inc. is set up a new initiative called “ Jason Universe ” which will make “ newFriday the 13th activations[spanning ] a spacious range of platforms from amusement , games , immersive experiences , merchandise , and more to be announced throughout 2024 . ” On its official site , it bluster “ Welcome to a new era from the original owners of the Friday the 13th enfranchisement . ”

The declaration come on theheels of the recent news of Bryan Fullerdeparting thePeacock teem serial publication Crystal Lake . That serial , if it happens , seems to fall under this umbrella since Robert Barsamian , the president of Horror , Inc. , is one of its producers . He also produced the popular 2017 television game .

“ For decades , Jason offend and thrilled audiences who keep coming back for more , ” Barsamian say in a argument to IGN . “ We ’re excited to work with Victor Miller and Marc Toberoff on new labor we ’ll announce in the number months . ” Miller is the writer of the original Friday the 13th who won the rightfulness back to that film in 2021 . He ’s not a part of Horror Inc. Toberoff is his attorney .

So , like , what does any of that mean ? Well , Bloody Disgustingspeculates , and we agree , that it sound like Jason Universe is decease to be making all manner of Jason clobber that is n’t flick . Whether that ’s TV shows , video game , VR , horror activations , or viral videos , who knows . What we do screw is that if you desire to move merchandise , video game , horror activations , and more , the good marketing for a horror icon like Jason is an iconic horror motion-picture show . So since it seems as if Horror Inc. is not in the movie business , we are not quite as worked up as we could be about all this . Excited for sure , but just a few degree less .
