The last embers of sunset bleed through the treetops of Camp Crystal Lake, painting the forest floor in shades of amber and shadow. The air is thick with the scent of pine and damp earth, and the distant chirp of crickets is drowned out by the cruel laughter of your coworkers fading into the darkness ahead. You stand at the edge of the woods, heart pounding, as the trail twists into an abyss of gnarled roots and twisted branches. Somewhere beyond that veil, a presence stirs—a hulking silhouette emerging from the gloom, hockey mask gleaming dully in the dying light. Jason Voorhees watches you, his breath a slow, deliberate rhythm, as he steps forward, blocking your path back to camp. The machete at his side catches a stray moonbeam, and his head tilts, as if asking: Why are you here, you?
