A legendary horror franchise makes a comeback
Pop culture fans, get ready for chills! San Diego Comic-Con just dropped a bomb for horror lovers: the Friday the 13th franchise is officially coming back, with both a new movie and a fresh video game on the way. The news broke over the weekend at the legendary convention in San Diego, California—where pop culture history is made every year.
Who, what, where, when? The iconic Jason Voorhees is set to haunt our screens again, as revealed at this year’s Comic-Con. The event, which started in 1970 as a haven for comic book and sci-fi fans, has exploded into the world’s biggest pop culture gathering. While Marvel and DC usually steal the show, this year, it was horror’s turn to shine. The Friday the 13th announcement had fans screaming (with excitement) both in San Diego and online.
Let’s be real: Friday the 13th is a legend. From scary movie marathons on late-night TV to memes about Jason’s hockey mask, this franchise is a global pop culture icon. The new movie promises to bring the classic slasher vibes to a new generation, while the video game could become the next big thing for horror gamers. For Moroccan fans, who love a good scare (and a good story), this is a comeback worth celebrating—think of it as the “Boujloud” of Hollywood horror!
In Morocco, horror movies have a loyal fanbase, especially among the youth. Whether you’re watching at home with friends or catching a late-night screening, there’s something universal about a creepy villain chasing teens through the woods. Social media exploded with reactions, from excited tweets to memes comparing Jason to Moroccan legends like Aïcha Kandicha. Even local celebrities joined the hype, sharing their favorite Friday the 13th moments.
The buzz is real. On X (formerly Twitter), #Fridaythe13th trended worldwide. Horror icons and movie critics jumped in, with some calling it “the comeback we needed.” Gamers are already speculating about what the new video game will look like—will it be as scary as the movies, or even scarier? Moroccan streamers and influencers are already planning live reactions for the launch.
So, what’s next? Details are still under wraps, but with Comic-Con’s track record, expect more teasers soon. Will the new movie live up to the hype? Will the game become a must-play for horror fans in Morocco and beyond? One thing’s for sure: Jason is back, and he’s not done scaring us yet. Are you ready to face him again?
