History

Friday the 13th

Jason Voorhees was born in the small town of Crystal Lake on June 13, 1946 to Pamela Sue and Elias Voorhees as a hydrocephalic, making him physically deformed. Because of this, his mother never took him to school, and was extremely overprotective of him. Pamela later took a job as a cook at Camp Crystal Lake, where the other campers would frequently bully Jason because of his deformity. One night, having had enough of the constant abuse from the bullies, Jason drowned when he dived into Crystal Lake to prove that he could swim. The camp counselors did nothing, as they were busy having a party in one of the adult cabins. Pamela proceeded to kill many of the camp counselors and campers as revenge, before one of them, Alice, decapitated her.

Friday the 13th: A New Beginning

Jason did not appear in Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, except for dream sequences and hallucinations by Tommy. Instead, a different killer named Roy Burns appears in the film as the main antagonist, using Jason's M.O. and identity.

Appearance

Jason in the first film appears to be a bald deformed child with brown eyes. In the dream or hallucination Alice was having, he has green mucky water weed covering his whole body. In the second film, he wears blue jeans overalls with a blue paid button shirt and has long red hair, hazel eyes and yellowish deformed teeth.
