Crystal Lake: Friday the 13th TV Series Updates

Horror fans, get ready to return to the infamous Crystal Lake: Friday the 13th TV Series, aptly titled Crystal Lake, is set to delve deeper into the lore of the iconic franchise. With the creative forces behind it and the resolution of long-standing legal battles, this pre-remake-uel promises to be a thrilling addition to the horror landscape. Here's everything we know so far.

For years, the Friday the 13th franchise was in limbo due to a copyright lawsuit between the original producer/director Sean S. Cunningham and screenwriter Victor Miller. The legal battle has finally come to an end, with Miller winning the copyright to the 1980 classic within the United States and securing non-exclusive foreign rights. To bring this TV series to life, Miller has partnered with his lawyer Marc Toberoff and Rob Barsamian, an investor in the original Friday the 13th who holds a stake in the franchise.

One of the most exciting aspects of Crystal Lake is the scope of its rights. Fuller has confirmed that the series will have access to everything from the Friday the 13th franchise. This includes characters, settings, and storylines from the entire series. Fuller shared with Fangoria, "We can use everything. We can go to Hell, we can go to space. That’s not to say that we will do those things … although if we do go 10 seasons, I will be lobbying hard to go to space." This broad access opens up a world of possibilities for the show, potentially revisiting iconic moments and characters or even exploring new, uncharted territory within the franchise.

Crystal Lake is shaping up to be a must-watch series for horror buffs.

Will we see the return of Pamela Voorhees? Will Jason don his iconic hockey mask once more? Crystal Lake is poised to reinvigorate the Friday the 13th franchise in a big way.

As we await further details and a release date, fans can rest assured that the return to Crystal Lake will be worth the wait. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new series at Your Favorite Scary Movies!
