Rage is a Mother in ‘Crystal Lake’ Official Trailer
Peacock has just released the full official trailer for the Friday the 13th prequel series Crystal Lake, produced by A24, and it has us more than excited for the return of Jason and Pamela Voorhees.

It also has all kinds of Easter egg nods to original Friday the 13th, from familiar locations to iconic characters like Crazy Ralph.
Here’s the show’s official synopsis: “A prequel to the Friday the 13th franchise, the series follows single mother Pam Voorhees, who has been unable to shake her grief after her young, sickly son Jason tragically drowned in the town lake almost a year before. When two strangers arrive at Pam’s door digging into her past, a disturbing chain of events is set into motion, leaving the townspeople of Crystal Lake wondering: just who is Pam Voorhees?”
Set in 1970s prior to the events of the 1980 original Friday the 13th movie, Crystal Lake begins with the circumstances around you Jason’s drowning, and from there follows his mother Pam’s descent into madness.
