FRIDAY THE 13TH: Stephen King Jokingly Suggested Novel About Jason Voorhees

Stephen King revealed over on Twitter yesterday that the best novel idea he never wrote (and probably never will) is a first-person narrative of Friday the 13th‘s Jason Voorhees!

He writes: “The best novel idea I never wrote (and probably never will) is I JASON, the first-person narrative of Jason Voorhees, and his hellish fate: killed over and over again at Camp Crystal Lake!

Jason as we know him (minus hockey mas) first showed up in Steve Miner’s Friday the 13th Part 2 which centered on a group of teenage would-be counselors converging on Camp Crystal Lake for training. Inevitably, Paul relates the story of Jason Voorhees (Warrington Gillette), a boy who ostensibly drowned at the camp and whose mother murdered a group of counselors in revenge. No one takes the tale seriously until a very much alive Jason begins gruesomely eliminating people.
