[Video] We Uncovered Some of “Friday the 13th: The Game’s” Biggest Secrets!

Published

It’s been a somewhat rocky weekend for “Friday the 13th: The Game” as horror fans came out in droves to support Gun Media and Illfonic Games’ newest creation. Thankfully though, the servers seem to be holding up, and I was actually able to get some solid game time in over the weekend with some friends.

Right out of the gate, I have to say that I love this game. Sure, it could use a little work in the facial animation department and I don’t think anyone would complain if the car keys spawned a little more often. But at the end of the day, the core gameplay loop is extremely solid, and with a number of copies Gun looks to have sold, they definitely have a solid platform to build on.

I think the main reason I like this game so much though is that it’s a passion project in the truest sense of the word. These guys adore “Friday the 13th” and it shows. There are more secrets and references to the film franchise than I think any one person could find on their own. I’ve encountered a ton so far so I thought it would be cool if I rounded them up in a video for other horror fans to check out.

My personal favorite is the inclusion of the famous decapitation from “Friday the 13th: Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan” (RIP Julius). If you found some secrets of your own that I didn’t cover, make sure you fill me in!

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
