'Friday the 13th' Pages to be Reworked Jul-Aug 2026 for Hall of Horror Revamp

WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!

The following timeline combines information from 'Friday the 13th' Wikipedia pages, dialogue and various dates from the films themselves. This timeline is not absolutely definitive, and certain situations are debatable and always will be due to the simplicity of human error.
  • Legacy Character/Final Girl
  • Secondary but Important Character
  • Series Villain

PRE-FRIDAY THE 13th HISTORY

1930:
  • Birthday: Pamela Voorhees
1935:
  • Camp Crystal Lake is established by the Christy family
September, 1941:
  • Birthday: Freddy Krueger
Thursday, June 13, 1946:
  • Birthday: Jason Voorhees
Summer, 1957:
  • Pamela Voorhees is given the job of cook at Camp Crystal Lake
Friday, September 13, 1957:
  • It is assumed that Jason Voorhees drowns as a result of ignorant camp counsellors. The body is never found, however, and based on personal theory, he continues to be cared for secretively by his mother, who keeps him away from any sort of socialization or human contact
Friday, June 13, 1958:
  • (As seen in the opening of 'Friday the 13th', 1980) One year after the supposed drowning of her son, Pamela Voorhees takes her frustrations for the counsellor's ignorance the previous year out on the current counsellors, having gone mad. Again, based on personal theory only, I assume she taught her son that camp counsellors, or perhaps even people in general, are bad and deserve death
  • In the following years, Camp Crystal Lake is officially shut down due to the murders until 1979
1959:
  • Birthday: Alice Hardy (Orginal)
Between 1960-61:
  • Birthday: Diana Voorhees ('Jason Goes to Hell')
1962:
  • An attempt is made to reopen Camp Crystal Lake, but efforts are halted due to toxins in the water. Between this, the unsolved murders in 1958, and Jason Voorhees' apparent drowning, the camp is nicknamed by the locals as "Camp Blood" and believed to have a "death curse" on it
1965:
  • Birthday: Chris Higgins ('Part 3')
1965:
  • Birthday: Trish Jarvis ('Final Chapter')
1972:
  • Birthday: Tommy Jarvis

FRIDAY THE 13th ('80)

Picture
Film Timeline:
  • Opens with Pamela Voorhees' original killing spree in 1958
  • Begins on Wednesday, June 13, 1979 - Ends early on Thursday, June 14, 1979
  • These dates do not match the suggested on-screen date of Friday, June 13, 1980, but several sources seem to have retconned these events to take place in 1979, including Pamela Voorhees' gravestone in 'The Final Chapter' which marks 1979 as her year of death.
  • Pamela Voorhees is killed by beheading by Alice Hardy, and due to a hallucination in the aftermath, Alice Hardy believes a child version of Jason Voorhees to be at the camp.

For deaths, see 'Friday the 13th' Morgue, 1980

POST-FRIDAY THE 13th/PRE-FRIDAY THE 13th PART 2

August, 1979:
  • (As seen in the opening of 'Friday the 13th Part 2') Alice Hardy is released from the sanitarium after her encounter with Pamela Voorhees, and she decides to head back to Crystal Lake in an attempt to conquer her fears.
  • Alice Hardy is soon found and killed by Jason Voorhees, clearly grown up, lending to the idea that the child she saw as Jason Voorhees wasn't actually real, and probably a product of her imagination through a combination of a terrible amount of trauma and the local campfire stories of Jason Voorhees
1980:
  • Birthday: Tina Shepard ('New Blood')
  • Birthday: Rennie Wickham ('Manhattan')
Summer, 1982:
  • (As seen in 'Friday the 13th Part 3') Chris Higgins ('Part 3') gets in a fight with her parents and runs away into the woods nearby. There, she is attacked by Jason Voorhees, but survives after having passed out. Her parents refuse to speak about the encounter with her, and she becomes apprehensive about ever returning to her family's summer home of "Higgins Haven"
