‘Crystal Lake’ Season 2 Could Go Full ‘Friday the 13th’ With More “Jason Carnage”

With Jason Voorhees out in the woods and the sack on his head, Crystal Lake showrunner Brad Caleb Kane wants a second season to deliver more of what die-hard Friday the 13th fans have been waiting for: Jason carnage.

Speaking with TVLine, Kane explained how the first season’s ending opens up his plans for a potential return.

“I know exactly what I want to do with it. I know the thematics we’re going to approach. I have a general framework for what I want to do, and now that he’s out there and has the baghead, you can go full Friday the 13th in ways that you can’t when you’re leading up to that in Season 1.”

He continued, “I feel like in many ways — since he’s out there, we know he’s out there, Pam knows he’s out there — the handcuffs are off in a good way. And there is more of an opportunity to give the die-hard fans what they want in terms of Jason carnage.”

Kane previously discussed his plans with Daniel Kurland in our exclusive interview, explaining that he wanted the first season to stand on its own while leaving room to continue. These latest comments describe what he hopes to do if the series is renewed.

And if the kills are what brought you to Crystal Lake, Kane also shared a fun detail about the first season: every single one started with practical effects.
