You Can Stay Overnight At The 'Friday The 13th' Camp Crystal Lake Shooting Location
Warmer weather is almost upon us, and if you're looking for a nice getaway spot, here's a recommendation: Camp Crystal Lake. Yes, you can now spend the night at the camp location used to film the original Friday the 13th...if you dare.
If you've ever wanted to spend the night at a camp ground where horny teens were hacked to death, you're in luck. Camp No-Be-Bo-Sco, a Boy Scouts camp located in sunny Hardwick, New Jersey, is opening its gates this year to let guests spend the night. The camp was used as the location for the first Friday the 13th film, where it doubled for Camp Crystal Lake. At this (fictional) camp, reckless counselors let young Jason Voorhees drown in the lake. The event would set off a seemingly endless number of horror movie sequels in which Jason's mother, and then later the rotting, unstoppable zombie of Jason himself, set out for bloody revenge. Heads were smashed, pot was smoked, and Crispin Glover danced his ass off.
None of that will happen during your stay at the camp (maybe), but at the very least, this is a neat opportunity for fans of the franchise. Adrienne King, who played Final Girl Alice in the first film (and had a brief cameo in the second) will also be on hand. Ticket prices vary, but certain tickets include dinner and breakfast. No word on which ticket will bring about your quick, bloody demise, though. Who knows, you might get lucky.
Full details about the stay are below. Good luck, campers.
