Friday the 13th may not cause quite as many screams today as it did back in 1980, but you can’t deny it remains an essential horror classic. If you're looking for a Jason costume from Friday the 13th, you'll find the most terrifying collection of Jason Voorhees costumes right here. After all, true classics never die (just like Jason).

Friday the 13th Costume Ideas

On Friday 13th June 1980, a horror film was released that, despite not being a major blockbuster, went on to become one of the genre’s greatest classics and inspired one of the most popular Halloween costumes ever. It’s hard to imagine a Halloween or horror-themed party without someone dressed as Jason, recreating the infamous killer from Friday the 13th.

Would you like to become the terror of Crystal Lake? At Don Disfraz, you'll find a range of Jason costumes for both adults and children, allowing you to recreate some of the most memorable looks from this legendary franchise. You can spread fear at any Halloween or fancy dress party if you fully embrace the character. Choose the perfect Friday the 13th costume, hide in the shadows, lurk behind doors and surprise your friends... you'll be responsible for more than a few jump scares.

Remember that, alongside the costume, Jason’s iconic hockey mask is absolutely essential. Jason was a disfigured and troubled killer who always kept his face hidden. Although he didn’t acquire the famous hockey mask until the third film, it’s impossible not to associate him with it. Did you know that before the legendary mask, he actually wore a sack over his head to conceal his face? At Don Disfraz, you'll find a variety of hockey masks to complete your Jason look, from blood-splattered versions to the classic white hockey mask made famous in the films.

You've got the Friday the 13th costume and Jason’s mask, but there’s still one important detail missing — your weapon of choice. How else were you planning to "deal with" your victims? Across the Friday the 13th films, Jason is said to have claimed more than 150 victims, and many of them met their end at the hands of his favourite weapon: the machete. Add a machete prop to your outfit and you'll have the ultimate Jason costume.
