Ways to Die Against Jason Voorhees
If you are looking to survive a real life Jason Voorhees chase, you will want to avoid making one of these frequently-made mistakes. Remember, one small mistake against a brute like Jason, could mean the end of your life!
Lake House Vacationing
So many victims have fallen to Jason Voorhees simply because they choose to take a beautiful summer vacation at the lake house. Jason always hunts his prey best during summertime!
If you would be found enjoying a ‘lake house summer vacation’ with your friends, subtract 20 points from your score.
Joking Around
Jason does not tolerate any type of disrespect. If someone is making fun of him, taunting him or otherwise irritating him, his natural instinct is to kill them as soon as possible. Some victims have mistaken him for harmless, or even tried to talk to him before losing their life. And those who do not move at all typically die fastest.
If you are the type to freeze up, make jokes or otherwise try to befriend your bully, subtract 15 points from your score.
Going Swimming
When survivors go swimming, they are notoriously vulnerable in horror films (especially in the slasher genre). Everyone knows that you do not go swimming when Jason’s at the party. Jason may be afraid of water and drowning, but the death rate for survivors who have entered Crystal Lake, is too high to ever suggest going for a swim.
If you would go skinny dipping, bask on a floatable, or otherwise take a plunge in Crystal Lake, subtract 15 points from your score.
Getting Drunk
A lot of the victims Jason has slain have been partying beforehand. If there is booze around, then it’s a pretty good sign that there is enough irresponsibility present for Jason to wreak extreme horror havoc. Alcohol also naturally reduces one’s ability to defend themselves in a horror slasher.
If you would find yourself drunk at a party, simply subtract 10 points from your score without complaining.
Walking Alone at Night
One of the worst ways to go in a horror movie, is alone. And in the Friday the 13th movies, Jason Voorhees loves to stalk those who walk alone at night. In fact, those who go it alone have an extremely low survival rate. Remember, always use the buddy system!
If you would choose to walk alone at night, even from one cabin to another for a quick moment, subtract 20 points from your score.
Having Intercourse
It is never good to have intercourse in a horror slasher film. In order to survive as a survivor, one’s hormones must be suppressed throughout the duration of the movie. If you choose to have sex, even if you use a condom, you will still be risking your life at Camp Crystal Lake!
If you would choose to be intimate while at a lake house, subtract 15 points from your score.
