The new Crystal Lake trailer has Friday the 13th fans saying the same thing. A glimpse of one of Jason Voorhees‘ iconic outfits was caught in the new trailer. Upon this discovery, many fans of the horror franchise suspect that the costume could make a comeback in the upcoming series.
In a new trailer for Crystal Lake, some clips of Jason Voorhees’ baghead costume were seen. Fans took to their X accounts to post the stills. For instance, Dread Central’s @bradmiska wrote, “Did they really just sneak baghead Jason into the ‘CRYSTAL LAKE’ trailer?!”
The same user later uploaded clearer pictures on the Dread Central account, as shown below:

In excitement, @Chesseburg71797 added, “OH MY GOD IT’S BAGHEAD JASON HE IS BACK HOLY SHIT I’M SO HAPPYYYY.” While @Straylenn questioned, “Baghead Jason this early?”
Baghead Jason is an earlier version of the character who wore a burlap sack before donning his iconic hockey mask. Hence, many fans are naturally confused about Baghead Jason’s appearance, since the upcoming series is set before the events of Friday the 13th.
Moreover, the upcoming show is set to feature a young Jason rather than an adult one, leaving fans eager to find out who is hiding behind the baghead mask in the trailer. But since Linda Cardellini was recently seen wearing another classic Mrs. Voorhees sweater, the upcoming series could stick more closely to the original storyline.
What to know about the Friday the 13th prequel series Crystal Lake
Brad Caleb Kane serves as the showrunner for the upcoming Peacock series. Besides Cardellini, the cast also features Callum Vinson, William Catlett, Devin Kessler, Cameron Scoggins, Gwendolyn Sundstrom, and Nick Cordileone.
The official synopsis reads, “The series follows single mother Pam Voorhees, who has been unable to shake her grief after her young, sickly son Jason tragically drowned in the town lake almost a year before. When two strangers arrive at Pam’s door, digging into her past, a disturbing chain of events is set into motion, leaving the townspeople of Crystal Lake wondering: just who is Pam Voorhees?”
Peacock will premiere all eight episodes of Crystal Lake on October 15, 2026.
