You may remember that we wrote an article a couple months back wherein we shared vintage, newly unearthed images from an opening weekend event for Friday the 13th: Part 3 back in 1982. The event took place in the Washington, DC area, and an actor was hired to play Jason Voorhees for it. Those photos, well, they warmed our heart.
In one of the photos, “Jason” is standing in front of a large Friday the 13th: Part 3 standee, which one fan actually still has in his possession! As reported by the Facebook page Slasher Trash, Friday fan Gregg Parish has had the Part 3 standee for the past 30 years, and he recently dug it out of storage to share it with the internet.
Parish notes, “So, just dug this out of storage. Have had it since 1986. Got it at an antique show for $20 trading a Gone With The Wind video standup. Plugged it in and it still works after being out of sight for 20+ years. Now, it’s part of my office.”
The standee has a “dripping blood” feature, which you can see in action below!
