Biography Flash: Jason Voorhees Trending Hard in 2025

Jason Voorees Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Hey folks, Marcus Ellery here with another flash update on the eternal slash icon, Jason Voorhees, for Biography Flash. Yeah, I know, the guy's been dead, undead, and everything in between since Camp Crystal Lake, but in the past few days, our hockey-masked mama's boy is somehow trending harder than my last bad haircut.

Kicking off with yesterday's big splash—Bleeding Cool reports Svengoolie hosted his "War of the Colossal Beast" episode last night, January 31st, with a surprise drop-in from Kane Hodder, the legend who brought Jason to life in multiple Friday the 13th flicks and even Victor Crowley. Hodder dished on those sweaty suits and machete swings, reminding us Jason's still got that unstoppable vibe. Perfect timing, too, since HorrorGeekLife just announced all eight original Friday the 13th movies are streaming free on Pluto TV throughout February—ideal for binging before Peacock's Crystal Lake prequel series hits later this year, starring Linda Cardellini as Pamela Voorhees.

Social media's buzzing: AV Club posted about a kid-friendly Friday the 13th cartoon turning Jason into family fare—because nothing says bedtime story like a masked killer chasing Scooby-Doo vibes. Twitter's lit with fan art tying it to the upcoming 13th film and new video game announced last July, plus Jason's cameos in Call of Duty Black Ops 6 and Fortnite keeping him multiplayer-relevant. No major headlines in the last 24 hours, but Paste Magazine's retro love letter to Jason Takes Manhattan went viral again, praising that perpetually wet Kane Hodder look—campy gold, if you ask me.

Long-term bio-wise, this Peacock series could redefine Jason's origin, weighting heavy like Freddy vs. Jason did back in '03 when he clashed with Krueger. Me? I'm just hoping he stays drowned this time—I've got enough nightmares.

Thanks for tuning in, listeners—subscribe now to never miss a Jason update, and search Biography Flash for more killer bios. Stay safe out there.
