For tours of the camp, information can be found HERE, but they sell out way in advance. The camp has operated continuously since the summer of 1927.

The camp hosted its first official Friday the 13th tour on Friday, May 13th, 2011 to great success. For my review of the diner, click HEREĬamp NoBeBoSco aka Camp Crystal Lake was the main filming location, and many of the structures are still the same. If you’re looking for food, be sure to visit the Blairstown Diner! Located on Route 94, this is the diner that Steve spends the evening while his friends are being murdered. The first shot of the movie shows the main character, Annie crossing, a small bridge as she walks into town.Īlthough locations in town (including the bridge) have been updated in the last 36 years, Blairstown will look very recognizable to fans of the film. The small-town setting was the perfect location for the events in the film to unfold. Located in Warren County, Blairstown, NJ is a historic district with a great downtown area. It sets up a massive film franchise of psycho murdered and mask wearer, Jason Voorhees (although his mother is the murderer), scaring teenagers from having sex otherwise they’ll be murdered. In case you’re unfamiliar, the original Friday the 13th movie from 1980 is a slasher film that tells the story of a group of teenagers who are murdered one by one while attempting to re-open an abandoned campground, Camp Crystal Lake. Be on the lookout for their next screening. I went a few years ago and had an AMAZING time. Every Friday the 13th Roy’s Hall on Main Street screens the film for horror buffs to enjoy (unfortunately they had to cancel this year due to COVID-19).

Today is FRIDAY the 13th! What better way to spend Friday the 13th than in New Jersey!ĭid you know? The original Friday the 13th was filmed in Blairstown, NJ, Hope, NJ, and Camp NoBeBoSco in Hardwick Township, NJ.īlairstown embraces the fact that the famous film was shot in town.
